Maro did not know that her lyrics would be used until the release announcement.
She had posted a tweet about it.

A fan related the lyrics "おかしいな梅雨はあけたのに 私の心はまだ水無月" to previous CG live "Country Girls LIVE2018 ~Minazuki!~"

P.S. 水無月(Minazuki)

The composer of "Matenai After Five", Ishii Kentaro also composed "Bukiyou" from LoVendoR

I wonder if there will be a proper MV for Matenai After Five
May be it will be just a video cut from the harocon performance similar to Konamaiki Girl as they already have the recordings

Hope there will be a decent MV for Kasa wo sasu Senpai
and the song will be performed live in remaining days of harocon (8/25, 8/26, 9/1)

Thanks so much core2quad for the lyrics!

 

I wanted to see what kind of lyrics Maro writes, so I... translated... kinda, the song. This is more like, an English version of the lyrics as opposed to a "literal" translation. Anyways I am very happy with the lyrics Maro wrote...  Please read them below.

 

 

Sempai's Umbrella

 

Who is that girl my Sempai is holding the umbrella for?

 

 

Verse 1

 

My heart started beating so fast when I saw them getting along so well

Beating so fast that even my thick-headed Sempai could notice 

I bet you told her she was cute when she was laughing at your jokes like your little sister

I bet that Sempai is telling her all sorts of things like that

 

Chorus 1

 

Who is that girl my Sempai is holding the umbrella for?

I lost that cute smile you praised me for

In the same way you didn't notice my rain, quietly, I'm quietly running away from this scene, but

I bet they did not notice me even a little bit

I'm such a useless girl

 

Verse 2

 

When you greeted me the next day with that emotionless good morning

My chest  got so tight

Despite these peculiar showers starting, my heart is still not in June's rainy season

My charm with "rain rain go away" is supposed to be constantly preventing these rainy days

 

Chorus 2

 

Why won't this awakening of my love close, even after Sempai has closed that umbrella

I wonder what kind of girl was walking with Sempai, she has to be an amazing girl

Yea, I understand that, but understanding how amazing she must be makes my chest hurt

And yet even so, I think its a little like me...

I'm such a useless girl

 

Chorus 3

 

Who is that girl my Sempai is holding the umbrella for?

I lost that cute smile you praised me for

In the same way you didn't notice my rain, quietly, I'm quietly running away from this scene, but

I bet they did not notice me even a little bit

I'm such a useless girl

 

Here are the typed Japanese lyrics, just in case someone else wants them and doesn't want to type them out themselves.

傘をさす先輩

 

傘をさす先輩の背中のとなりのおその子は誰

Verse 1
何気ない言葉や仕草にドキドキし始めていた
それさえ気づかぬ鈍感な先輩
冗談言って笑いあい妹みたいでかわいいなって
きっとそれが先輩なりの答えたったんだよね

Chorus 1
傘をさす先輩の背中のとなりのおその子は誰
先輩に褒められたえくぼ落ちた私の雨が
気づかちゃわないようにそっとその場から逃げるけど
ちょっとくらい気づいてくれないかなって
ダメな女ね

Verse 2

何もなかったような顔でおはようと声かけてくる
それが余計胸をきゅっとしめた
おかしいな梅雨は明けたのに私の心はまだ水無月
てるてる坊主ぶら下げても変わらないはずよ

Chorus 2

傘は閉じてもこの恋心閉じられないのはなぜ
先輩が遊んだこなんだもんきっとすごくいい子よ
そんなことわかってる　わかるからまだ胸痛む
でもちょっと私の方がって思っちゃう
ダメな女ね

Chorus 3　

傘をさす先輩の背中のとなりのおその子は誰
先輩に褒められたえくぼ落ちた私の雨が
気づかちゃわないようにそっとその場から逃げるけど
ちょっとくらい気づいてくれないかなって
ダメな女ね

Thanks so much for both the typed Japanese lyrics and the translation.
I love Kasa wo sasu Senpai a lot.

[core2quad]

Actually I am looking for the line distribution among the 5 members for both of the songs.

I know Chii's solo lines are
Matenai After Five:
電話も出てやんない
Kasa wo sasu Senpai:
きっとそれが先輩なりの
でもちょっと私の方がって思っちゃう

They look so cute!   

[IchVermisseDenSommer]

So will we actually get MVs for this single or did they just put them in some outfits they had lying around?

[core2quad]

I am pretty sure they will release MVs for the songs
May be a cut live performance for Matenai After Five from Harocon and a decent MV for Kasa wo sasu Senpai

Matenai After Five


Kasa wo sasu Senpai

[Nisaponchu16]

Kasa wo Sasu Senpai is such a beautiful song. It's up there in my CG song ranking with Koi wa Magnet. Oh how I wish that they would make an MV for this song, something simple like the UUG2 rain song is perfectly fine. But I don't really think that it's going to happen tbh. Life is unfair for CG

Same! I am basically hooked to this song. I still feel this could have been a physical release. The fans would have supported this.

[core2quad]

Kasa wo Sasu Senpai gets stuck in my head for 2 weeks since it was released 
Still waiting for the MVs to come out

[core2quad]

They only performed Matenai After Five in Harocon SUMMER
I finally watched the live of Kasa wo sasu Senpai in Hello! Fes MM'18 Premium last Saturday
It was the first time this song performed live and I was so touched
They were wearing these blue dresses

[midnightbottle]

^Nice, so finally we will be able to see this on a DVD too. Hopefully, they will be able to perform this song more. Love it so much!
