[ENGLISH TRANSLATION] my store 〜可能性を秘めた男たち〜 | My store 〜Kanousei wo himeta otoko-tachi〜
You can only put 100 characters in the title, so I'll put the title translation here: MY STORE 〜men with potential〜
A song by the OhYamaDa trio desperate for recognition! The phrase MY STORE is built up with each member's initials + Eighter. Song is found in the genki ga deru CD album with the other unit songs.
Composer/s: TAKESHI, Maruyama Ryuhei
Lyricist/s: Kanjimi3 (pun of kanjani8 and jimi (plain) by shibutani. Idk why they adapted that for the song credits, maybe cos it fits w/ the song?)
Kanji + romaji Credit

Translation notes:
冴えない means uninteresting but I put it as ‘plain’ to fit with the kanjimi3 name (jimi = plain). Just fun trivia <3
*It says メーン which literally means “main” but maru keeps putting in long vowels for other lines too (ie もーん when it’s usually もん) so put it in as 3 men instead of 3 main. Sorry maru if you meant it as the other way <3 cos it can be interpreted as that too LOL
