Translator notes:

1. Here is a kind of “pun” with 石 (ishi) = stone and 意思 (ishi) = intention. Maybe because good intentions do we find out as rocks on the beach? I'm not sure.

2. Here it says “coward” (in italics in Romaji) but he sings “honest person” (正直者/shoujiki mono). I put both to try to express the meaning that they may have wanted to give. The other line in which they sing 正直者/shoujiki mono is written just like that.
