Lyrics from Animelyrics.com

I feel so bad, my spirit's weak
Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
What do you see? I see a forest
What kind? There's a light in the darkness
Whatcha gonna do? I wanna walk in it
What do you say??

I feel so bad, my body's weak
Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
What do you see? I see a moth
What kind? It looks like my lover
Whatcha gonna do? I wanna chase it
Nani ittenno?

I feel so bad, my mind is weak
Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
What do you see? I see a key on the ground
What kind? Just a key, but it's shining
Whatcha gonna do? I wanna pick it up
What do you say??

I've got a feeling something's happening
It gives me a thrill but it's also very frightening

I feel so bad, my spirit's weak
Somebody please, what's wrong with me?
What do you see? I see a long wall
What kind? It has no end
Whatcha gonna do? Use the key to open it
What you say??

I've got a feeling something's happening
It gives me a thrill but it's also very frightening

Official lyrics from the booklet of the 2003 remastered CD of YMO's Technodelic album.

I've preserved the arrangement of the individual lines as they were printed. I left in the double question marks, but added the space after each comma. I've broken up the individual stanzas to avoid having one mass of text as it was originally printed. I've corrected the next to last line, where the booklet inexplicably says "happening something's", despite the actual song saying "something's happening" the same as earlier in the song, and repeating it several times in the same way.
