    WELCOME TO THIS CRAZY TIME
    Kono fuzaketa jidai e yōkoso
    Kimi wa TOUGH BOY, TOUGH BOY, TOUGH BOY, TOUGH BOY
    Dokomo kashiko mo kizu darake
    Uzuku matte naitetemo hajimaranai kara
    TOUGH BOY, TOUGH BOY, TOUGH BOY, TOUGH BOY

    Toki wa masa ni seikimatsu
    Yodon da machikado de bokura wa deatta

    Trivia

    • The album version and broadcast version actually have slightly different lyrics. The album version says "eighties" and TV version says "nineties". Also the lyric ikareta (イカレた crazy) was changed to fuzaketa (ふざけた goofy) for reasons of political correct oversensitivity to mental illness.
    • Sturmbannführer sings this at the end of Hellsing: Ultimate III.
