Japanese[edit | edit source]

のぼりざかのとちゅう
くだりざかのとちゅう

ふむむー

しんでれら
照れ屋さん

かけあしのとちゅう
たちどまってまだとちゅう

ふむふむー

おうじさま
くねくね上手

ふーん

これ みてみて
ほら もぞもぞ
ここ ころころ

こ! 

こ～

こ～お～

ここ!

ギブみーチョッカれーつ!

行く手 かがしの道
「きょうも迷子の凱旋ソング」

そうさ みんなぼっち
しんじるものはすくわれない

ホゲー! (訳: PEACE!)

「みらいがべいべー!呼んでるわ」
「まぶしいぜ サンフラワー! 

うしろむけひだりならえ

にんげんやめました

English[edit | edit source]

Halfway going uphill
Halfway going downhill

Hmmm

Cinderella
Is the shy type

Halfway hurrying
Still halfway stopping in your tracks

The prince
Is good at meandering

Hmmph

Look, look at this
See, it's squirming around
Here, it's rolling around

He!

Re~

He~

Here!

Give me chocolates!

My path is a path of scarecrows
"It's the song of the lost child's triumphant return today too"

That's right, even amongst others you're alone
Those who believe shall not be saved

Hoge~! (Meaning: PEACE!)

"'Baby!' the future calls"
"Such a dazzling sunflower!"

Turn back and follow your left

I quit being human

A sequel to いきもの失格, titled 去る金合戦, can be found in GITADORA.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

いきもの失格 marks the first time when crimm is featured as a vocalist on an Asaki song, and her first song not composed/arranged by TOMOSUKE.
- いきもの失格 also marks crimm's first Konami original song she didn't write the lyrics for herself.
いきもの失格 was added to GITADORA on December 25th, 2013, as part of the Nettou! BEMANI Stadium (熱闘！BEMANIスタジアム, Nettou! BEMANI Stadium^?) event.
いきもの失格's EASY, Standard and Battle NORMAL, and Battle HYPER charts have their notecounts tied.
The genre name "crimms TALES" is a parodic reference of the popular Grimms' Tales. The vocals are provided by Crimm, and Cinderella is mentioned in one line of the lyrics.

Music Comment[edit | edit source]

Well, you've got me there, haven't you!

Song Production Information^[1][edit | edit source]

I got Crimm to sing this.
I've usually been calling her Kuririn.
Each time I call her that, that sadistic girl makes a face that seems to say
"Call me Kuririn!"
Even though I'm already calling her that. Truly sadistic.

Speaking of sadistic,
When I first met her a long time ago,
I remember her looking at me like she was looking at the underside of a pill bug.
Biologically speaking, that's a truly sadistic region.

Even now, I still feel like as if she's continually looking at me like she's looking at the underside of a pill bug.
Truly long-term sadism.

What I'm trying to say is...

Those who believe shall not be saved,
but the nonbelievers can save the believers.

Or so it seems. That seems to be the way things aaare.

That's all.

I apologize for troubling you.

Thank you for your cooperation.

How is everybody doing? Crimm here.
Asaki-san asked me to lend him my voice, so I sung this.

I'm not very good with bugs, but I think pill bugs are really, really cute.
It's that perfect roundness. They are called "roly-poly" after all...

Speaking of believers, a long time ago, Asaki-san said,
"I'm a god from now on! Call me godddd!", so I really started calling him that.
Then, after about a month or so had passed,
he said "I'm not sure how to say this, but I've been wondering this for a while. Why do you call me god, Kuririn?"
"Eh!? Because you asked me to call you that..." I replied.
"Kuririn! You shouldn't take those kinds of things seriously!" is what he told me.

Hmmmm...
