► LYRICS:
毎日起きてコーヒーして
涙溢れないようなスマイルで
マニュアル通りの生活で
死にそうなんだ　I just wanna escape

Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
太陽が眩しすぎて
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
プレッシャーに負けそうで
プレッシャーに負けそうで

今から行こうよ
Underground, underground
ここから逃げよう
Underground, ground
なりたい自分にやっとなれる場所
皆で行こうよUnderground, ground
チカチカ地下地下チッカ地下（はい!）
カチカチな世界から地下へ（hey!)
ピカピカピカピカ　チッカ地下 (はい!)　
ピカピカおニューなワタシへ (hey!)

毎日倒れるように帰宅
涙我慢してすぐ眠る
自由になれる夢また見る
そして気付いたら朝が来る

Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
太陽が眩しすぎて
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go
プレッシャーに負けそうで
プレッシャーに負けそうで

今から行こうよ
Underground, underground
ここから逃げよう
Underground, ground
なりたい自分にやっとなれる場所
皆で行こうよUnderground, ground
チカチカ地下地下チッカ地下（はい!）
カチカチな世界から地下へ（hey!)
ピカピカピカピカ　チッカ地下 (はい!)　
ピカピカおニューなワタシへ (hey!)

夕方16:30
まだまだまだまだ
早く出たいよ
まだまだまだまだ
アングラのドリンクはおいしくて
音楽も気持ちが良いの

今から行こうよ
Underground, underground
ここから逃げよう
Underground, ground
なりたい自分にやっとなれる場所
皆で行こうよUnderground, ground
チカチカ地下地下チッカ地下（はい!）
カチカチな世界から地下へ （hey!)
ピカピカピカピカ　チッカ地下 (はい!)　
ピカピカおニューなワタシへ (hey!)

[nananananamamama]

もう大好きなんだけど、
ずっと「実家 実家 実家 実家 実家近い」っていう歌詞で、

[nashinashi]

Why is nobody saying a word about the producer of this song? This dude was the executive producer for Lady Gaga's Chromatica album, y'all.

[Alexander-uez]

ok but can we PLEASe apreciate the message of the song?? the lyrics are so relatable and real like YES I dont wanna work anymore and give into societal expectations. Let's just go underground ..
f5ve profound queens💞

[ionastewart]

The clock at the start says magic clock! 😮😮

[melodyisheretoo]

Can we talk about how versatile f5ve is? Like, their songs can go from a confident anthem explaining how on fire the group is, to a song about lettuce, and now a dark song with hyper pop beats. I love this group sm

[giddy]

The girlies only just popped up randomly on my feed with a banger about motherfucking salad a few days ago and now Icons.

[solxi]

I will never forget what I felt the first time I heard this song, it moved me so much

[hyukaluvrs]

why are they so underrated yet their mv is so high quality?? i'm so interested, this is a good song and they're so pretty

[lily.]

listened to this like fifty times in a row and i’m not even exaggerating. the girls ate DOWN

[stroblaizer]

The stylist that chose to put these queens in basketball shorts for the end needs a raise. THE VISION

[nikki]

THE GIRLIES GOT THEIR AND RURI FINALLY GETTING HER TIME TO SHINE AS THE VOCALIST SHE IS!!!!

[singularele]

their marketing and built up for this was insane and the song/mv did not disappoint.ᐟ.ᐟ.ᐟ queen behaviour indeed

[krotonomy]

I AM GAGATONDRA!! I just clicked on this vid out of curiosity and I’m am gobsmacked. The outfits, the makeup, the choreo, the instrumental, and the girls are drop dead gorgeous. I don’t know anything about them but they are complete and utterly MOTHERS. SLAY QUEENS

[primarvelous]

this is amazing. it's so refreshing to see an interesting jpop act that isn't held down by the requirements of the industry for a certain look, a certain sound. it may never be worldwide famous, but it will ALWAYS be one of a kind, amazing music and performance.

[kiffymon]

I love how interactive they are in twitter, and the fact that their management actually listens and give EVEN LINE DISTRIBUTION to these girls? I LOVE THEM, THEY NEED TO BE BIG!!!

[mochochochoo]

as someone who's been struggling with her job I finally resign my last day will be aug 8 ..thank you for this song, adulthood and surviving in society is tough as hell but we got this!!

update after 20 days finally got a new job !! mina ganbatte!!

[bobbiluvsuu]

hi-5, make sure to stream underground a lot after the release!!

[sweenstaruploads-goml]

in irish fairy tales, there are fairies who are small enough to live underground who love singing and dancing . I like to think this is how they’re doing it in 2024

(love from 🇮🇪 !! f5ve u r a worldwide phenomenon)

Edit: HAPPY 1 MIL VIEWS !! Let’s start getting these kind of numbers on streaming now
