Notes

  • The album's cover and name of the song represents Speed Racer because his main car is called the Mach 5. However, in the song's bridge, it is mentioned that the external of the car is blue, a trait that doesn't match the Mach 5 in Speed Racer.
  • The Japanese text translates to "Buuoooooon", which may be the engine sound.
