Is Hana-chan a Squirrel?! - Shinsei Kamattechan (Hana-chan wa Risu ka! / 花ちゃんはリスかっ！)1
ジャスコで買っちゃった武器を手に持ち
198 円
全員殺せ
コンビニバイト始めた途端半そで着たら
なんだそれちび 早く死ねちびって
言われちゃいました
咲いた花で枯れてリスカ
ちょこちょこ切るこの小動物
小さすぎる君はリスか
死にたいってウソじゃないんだよほんとにばかっ
幼い風邪を吹き続け
嫌われて 愛もなくて ぶっこわれる
あぁうっせー
ジャスコで買っちゃった武器を持つ時立ちはだかるのは
非国民的英雄花子
ねこのぬいぐるみがグサリこっちを見ている
かわいい顔で
なんだそれちび 早く死ねちびって
言われちゃいました
泣くことだけ頑張るから
ちょこちょこ切るこの小動物
血が出たよっ!て
君はリスか
死にたいってウソじゃないんだよほんとにばかっ
髪止めのゴムに縛られて
生きるよりも死ぬよりもゆっくりねよー
咲いた花で明日へリスカ
小さすぎる君はリスだ
枯れた花で幼い腕を
切り刻んでいくよ
カスリ傷で生きるか死ぬか
小さすぎる君の背ほど
吹いた息は続く続く
切り刻んでいくように
19 歳になる君は
崩れてゆく子供のようだ
大人しいね
君はリスか
死にたいとか嘘をついているんだね
花ちゃんのリコーダー鳴らして
花ちゃんのリコーダー
花ちゃんこいつらは
全員敵だから
咲いた花で明日へリスカ
小さすぎる君はリスだ
枯れた花で幼い腕を
切り刻んでゆくよ
かすり傷で生きるか死ぬか
小さすぎる君の背ほど
吹いた息は続く続く切り刻んでいくように
咲き誇れ君のままで
枯れ果てろ君のままで
花ちゃんの成長できない花が少し綺麗だよ
咲き誇れ君のままで
枯れ果てろ君のままで
花ちゃんのイカレちまった花にこの世はこう言うぜ
花ちゃんはリスなのかっ!
花ちゃんはリスなのかっ!
花ちゃんはリスなのかっ!
花ちゃんはリスなのかっ!
花ちゃんはリスなのかっ!
花ちゃんはリスなのかっ!
花ちゃんよ咲き誇れっ

In your hand, you hold a weapon you bought at JUSCO
for 198 yen.
Kill everyone.
The moment you wore short sleeves at your conbini part-time job—
“The hell’s that, pipsqueak? Hurry up and die, pipsqueak,”
you were told.
With the blooming flowers, you wither and slash at your wrists.
Over and over, you cut at this small animal.
You’re much too small, are you a squirrel?
Saying you wanna die, that’s no lie, is it? You really are an idiot.
You continue to play the fledgling wind,
Hated and loveless, you fall apart into pieces.
Ah, so annoying…
It’s time to take the weapon you bought at JUSCO. Standing in the way
is the non-hero of the people, Hanako.
Gouging a cat plushie, she looks this way.
With such a cute face—
“The hell’s that, pipsqueak? Hurry up and die, pipsqueak,”
she was told.
Because the only thing you put effort into is crying,
over and over, you cut at this small animal.
“Blood came out!” you say,
Are you a squirrel?
Saying you wanna die, that’s no lie, is it? You really are an idiot.
Bound by your hairclips’ elastic,
More than living or dying, you take it slow, huh?
With the blooming flowers, you slash your wrists to tomorrow,
You’re much too small, you must be a squirrel.
With the withering flowers, you’re slashing
your fledgling arms into a mess.
With those abrasions, will you live or die?
As far as your much too small height,
Your breaths continue, continue,2
so that you can keep slashing yourself into a mess.
You, who’s turned 19,
are falling apart like a child.
So meek, aren’t you?
Are you a squirrel?
Saying you wanna die and all, you’re lying, aren’t you?
Hana-chan’s recorder rings out,
Hana-chan’s recorder…
Because all of those guys
are enemies, Hana-chan!
With the blooming flowers, you slash your wrists to tomorrow,
You’re much too small, you must be a squirrel.
With the withering flowers, you’re slashing
your fledgling arms into a mess.
With those abrasions, will you live or die?
As far as your much too small height,
Your breaths continue, continue, so that you can keep slashing yourself into a mess.
Bloom in full glory, as you are!
Wither and die, as you are!
Hana-chan’s flowers, which can no longer grow, are still a little beautiful…
Bloom in full glory, as you are!
Wither and die, as you are!
To Hana-chan’s crazed flowers,3 the world says this!—
Is Hana-chan a squirrel!?
Is Hana-chan a squirrel!?
Is Hana-chan a squirrel!?
Is Hana-chan a squirrel!?
Is Hana-chan a squirrel!?
Is Hana-chan a squirrel!?
Hana-chan, bloom in full glory!
Translation notes
1 In Japanese “Hana-chan wa Risu ka” is homonymous — it can mean “Is Hana-chan a squirrel?” or “Hana-chan cuts her wrists,” depending on spelling. The title is spelled to mean “Is Hana-chan a squirrel?”, but the wordplay of squirrel/wrist-cutting appears multiple times throughout the song.
2 This line also appears in Flautist Hana-chan, however in that song, it’s more implicit that she’s breathing out to play the flute.
3 This lyric, イカレちまった, is very similar to イカレ散った, a lyric in Flautist Hana-chan to describe the torn and scattered cherry blossoms.
