Very relatable song, I say after translating this song to keep my sleep deprived self awake because I stayed up all night playing online games and passing my last semester through magical power alone. Credits are for the original artists however because I have become a vtuber otaku I am embedding the Minato Aqua cover. Anyway I can’t believe I couldn’t find a translation for this song elsewhere. There’s no way; it’s too popular. I must be missing it.
July 1st Edit: I have found other translations, and they all contain many mistakes. Thanks for choosing to read mine.

やんないじゃない、
できないんだ！

yannai janai,

It’s not that I won’t,
It’s that I can’t!
(Smug!)
あー近頃巷で噂のダメ天使
ダメなとこはもう
天使なパワーでおぎなっていく…
その予定さ！
aa chikagoro chimata de uwasa no dame tenshi
dame na toko wa mou
tenshi na pawaa de oginatte iku…
sono yotei sa!
Ah, rumour on the streets lately is there’s a hopeless angel
She makes up for her faults
with her angel powers…
That’s the plan!
ねえ足りないの
もっともっとあなたに
気にしてほしい
だけど注目されすぎたら

Hey, it’s not enough
I want you to pay more and more
attention to me
But I’m the type that if you give too much
I’ll feel shy and miscommunicate
天使のリングの点滅は
きれかけてるけど
見方を変えればこれも
アイデンティティさ
なんて強がりさ本当は
曖昧な愛の感情も
あなたと探したいの
tenshi no ringu no tenmetsu wa
kire kaketeru kedo
mikata o kaereba kore mo
aidentiti sa
nante tsuyogari sa hontou wa
aimai na ai no kanjou mo
anata to sagashitai no
My angel ring’s light
is beginning to burn out
but if you look at it differently
it’s part of my identity
But that’s just me trying to act tough
The truth is that I want to explore
these vague feelings of love with you
ねえ
ダメダメダメダメなあたしを
もっと！
愛してね
YES!
大概の衝動に無気力な
エンジェル！
天使ですが
ハイ！

だけどもあたしはいいか？

Hey
As hopeless, hopeless, hopeless, hopeless as I am, I want
more of
your love!
YES!
Apathetic to most impulses
Angel
Though I’m an angel
Yes!
I’ll make your heart throb and throb and throb and throb
more!
but only if
YES!
you’ll properly pay attention to me
Angel!
Then I will, maybe
Yes!
As ho-ho-ho-ho-hopeless as I am,
am I too ho-ho-ho-ho-hopeless for you?
But, listen up, because when it comes to me
It’s not that I won’t,
It’s that I can’t!
(Smug!)
テストで良い点とりたーい

I want to get a good grade on my teest
but my head can’t keep up at aall
I want to wake up early on Sunday too
but I can’t stop playing online games late at night
night!
やる気がないとかそんなんじゃないんだ
やる気があってもできない仕様だ
しょうがないなって許してよ
エンジェルリングを頬張りながら
こんなあたしに誰がしたんだ
てかこんなあたしにあたしがしたのか
しょーがないなって許してよ
エンジェルリングを頬張りながら

It’s not that I don’t have motivation
Even if I had it, I’m not made for this
There’s nothing I can do, forgive me
Says me munching my angel ring
Who made me like this?
Wait, I made myself like this didn’t I
There’s nothing I can do, forgive me
Says me munching on my angel ring
天使の翼は使ってない
飛ぶの怖いから
本気をだしたら飛べますが？
みたいな顔はしている
そんなハリボテの裏側に
隠した愛の感情が
あなたに笑ってほしいの

I haven’t used my angel wings
because I’m scared of flying
But if I really tried, I could fly you know?
says the look on my face
Beyond such superficialities
are hidden feelings of love saying
I want you to smile at me
ねえ
ダメダメダメダメなあたしで
…いいですか？
実際は一切の自信も無いような
天使ですが
グルグルグルグルと巡る
頭の中では
あなたのことばかり
考えてるんだ！

Hey,
as hopeless, hopeless, hopeless, hopeless as I am
… is that fine with you?
Even though I’m angel without an ounce
of self confidence
Running round and round and round and round
inside of my head
the only thing that I can
think of is you!
