おどるポンポコリン opening chibi maruko-chan cover english

[Verse 1 – Extended]

Everyone, absolutely everyone around
Is dancing together to a joyful sound
Spinning and laughing without any care,
Music is floating everywhere in the air
From inside the pot with a magical boom,
A funny shady old man pops out of the room
No matter the time, no matter the place,
I’ll never forget this simple phrase
Edison was great, a wonderful man,
A genius inventor, just part of the plan
Everybody knows it, it’s written in stone,
That’s common knowledge, universally known

[Chorus]

Dat-ta-tta ra-ri-ra pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
My belly button peeks out, oops—there it is!
Dat-ta-tta ra-ri-ra pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Dancing Ponpoko-rin, pi-hyara-pi
My tummy’s growling, I’m hungry

[Verse 2 – Extended]

That kid and this kid, everyone you see
Is walking so fast, busy as can be
Morning to evening, step by step,
Chasing little dreams they haven’t caught yet
From behind a telephone pole nearby,
A cheerful comedian jumps out with a cry
Laughing and joking, causing surprise,
Making funny faces before your eyes
No matter what happens, I won’t lose my way,
Kiyosuku’s at the station, or so they say
It sounds kind of strange, not sure it’s true,
Just a silly little dream passing through

[Chorus]

Dat-ta-tta ra-ri-ra pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
No carrots for me, no thank you please
Dat-ta-tta ra-ri-ra pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Dancing Ponpoko-rin, pi-hyara-pi
Buutaro the pig says “oink” with glee

[Instrumental]
(Oh yeah)
(Hey)

[Chorus]

I’ll never forget, it’s always true
Edison was great, through and through
Everybody knows it, can’t deny
That’s common knowledge, don’t ask why
Dat-ta-tta ra-ri-ra pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
My belly button peeks out, surprise!
Dat-ta-tta ra-ri-ra pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Dancing Ponpoko-rin, pi-hyara-pi
My tummy’s growling, I’m hungry

(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

[Chorus – Outro]

Pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pa-ppa-pa-ra pa-pi-hyara pi-hyara
Pi-hyara pi-hyara
Dancing Ponpoko-rin, pi-hyara-pi
I’m hungry

[Instrumental]
(Oh yeah)
(Hey)
