Below is an official English translation: via Producer. Amendments may have been made to the original translation.

Maybe hated when holding hands
Reported when you stop "Rat race"
I'm not a mutant, I’m just me
X or Y

Tenacious people all have good and evil sides
They say I am "infringing" you and convince I’m here to offend and step on your pride
Oh...

Mr. Crazy Villain Villain
Nocturnal petals fall in the night
I wear different clothes and pretend to be a boy in front of you
Dear Dr.Durand-Durand
Please come pick me up
To any passerby I haven't met before, I'm a villain

Oh Hated life
Oh Hated life
Eventually be inflamed.. (Villain)

Keeping the deviant sex secret, which one could I be?
A dead end with stamens and stamens?
Hey Do you know a writer named Ranpo? oh of course you do
I was simply providing a hint to help you as they say even the fakest of flowers can bare the sweetest fruits

Don’t be scared, there is a wide variety of genders
Let's talk loving and despair
"So what?"

Mr. Crazy Villain Villain
Be happy with my possibilities
My heart is 1LDk inside this adolescent heart, let me dance in pure jealously
Hi there! My motto is YOLO
Need a little love
Nobody knows, I don't want anyone to know
What’s under my skin

A song dedicated to the great villains
Guess I better play the role seeing I’m a "Bad guy"
A cruel town has a beautiful rainbow
Dancing on obscene ads, it's pop fonts love


Mr. Crazy Villain Villain
Nocturnal petals
I wear different clothes and pretend to be a boy in front of you!
Dear Dr.Durand-Durand
I’m here!
To any passerby I haven't met before, I’m a villain

Oh Hated life
Oh Hated life
Eventually be inflamed (Villain)
