Romanized:
Nijiiro basu de niji no mukou e
Minna wo nosete aozora pass de
Nijiiro basu de dokoka ikouze
Ame ni butarete kutsu no naka made bishonure
Hayaku nijiiro basu de watashi wo mukaenikite
Ensoku zenya wa kanarazu nebusoku
Tanoshimi de tanoshimi de
Kininaru ano ko ga totsuzen ryuugaku
Setsunakute setsunakute
Ai suru hito e omoi wo yosete
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Nijiiro basu de niji no mukou e
Minna wo nosete aozora pass de
Kimi wo deeto ni sasotte uwasa tashikametai ne
Chotto ecchi na hanashi de mori agatte mitarishite
Manindensha de tsuukin tsuugaku
Monday to Friday, Monday to Friday
Yononaka kihon wa jakunikukyoushoku
Makenai de makenai de
Chiisana koto de mune wo itamete
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Nijiiro basu de niji no mukou e
Minna wo nosete aozora pass de
Nijiiro basu de dokoka ikouze
Ookina koe de uta wo utatte
Daremo inai sekai e watashi wo tsureteitte
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Japanese:
虹色バスで 虹の向こうへ
みんなを乗せて 青空passで
虹色バスで どこか行こうぜ
大きな声で 歌を歌って
雨に打たれて靴の中までびしょぬれ
早く虹色バスで私を迎えに来て
遠足前夜は必ず寝不足
楽しみで 楽しみで
気になるあの子が突然留学
せつなくて せつなくて
愛する人へ 想いを寄せて
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
虹色バスで 虹の向こうへ
みんなを乗せて 青空passで
君をデートに誘って ウワサ確かめたいね
ちょっとエッチな話で盛り上がってみたりして
満員電車で通勤通学
Monday to Friday, Monday to Friday
世の中基本は弱肉強食
負けないで 負けないで
小さなことで 胸を痛めて
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
虹色バスで 虹の向こうへ
みんなを乗せて 青空passで
虹色バスで どこか行こうぜ
大きな声で 歌を歌って
誰もいない世界へ 私を連れて行って
誰もいない世界へ 私を連れて行って
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
English translation:
On a rainbow colored bus to the other side of the rainbow
Everyone rides under a blue sky pass
We’re going somewhere today on the rainbow colored bus
Sing with a loud voice
Hit by the rain, my shoes are drenched inside
I hope the rainbow colored bus comes to pick me up soon
I certainly won’t get enough sleep on the night before my excursion
I’m looking forward to it, I’m looking forward to it
That worried girl suddenly studies abroad
With heart wrenching sorrow
Send your thoughts to the person you love
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
On the rainbow colored bus to the other side of the rainbow
Everyone rides under a blue sky pass
I invite you out on a date to check out a rumor
I try to liven things up with a slightly naughty conversation
On a crowded train commuting to work, commuting to school
Monday to Friday, Monday to Friday
The world’s standard of survival of the fittest
Please don’t be defeated, please don’t be defeated
Due to a small thing, my heart hurts
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
On a rainbow colored bus to the other side of the rainbow
Everyone rides under a blue sky pass
We’re going somewhere today on the rainbow colored bus
Sing with a loud voice
Take me to a world where there is no one
Take me to a world where there is no one
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
Everybody feels the same
