From My Favorite Hi de Song Hurry Go Round

Tsuka no ma ni imi nado
Shiriuru sube mo naku
Tada azayakasa dake
Kinou ni kakenuketa

there was no way in that short time
that I would find a meaning
only brightness
running through yesterday

Here's a more literal translation (neither are mine, the following was just offered impromptu by my coworker Ikuya):

Most women who work in shops and offices wear knee-length skirts and button up blouses. Teenaged girls wear their school uniform, even on the weekends, here where I am but in the cities they wear all kinds of things, sometimes costumes of their favorite characters, sometimes t-shirts and pants, it all depends. The old ladies here often wear hats you would find on "hippes" in California, and they can be seen zipping around on scooters. Almost all women wear makeup. As for cuteness, many are, some aren't. Same as usual.
