tourist on the mirai'n
Thanks to Graham Neubig for pointing out the super-obvious wordplay that I missed: the "来" of "未来" combines with the "n" to make "ライン". That is, in English, "line". The song is full of words that use "sen", the Japanese for "line".

瞬間に スターターを
まわして 飛び出せ
水平線 環状線
ふりきって かわすカーブ
shunkan ni staataa wo
mawashite tobidase
suiheisen kanjousen
furikitte kawasu kaabu
In in instant, turn the starter
And rush out
Horizon, loop-line,
The quickly taken curve

Let us scared ones ride
Stomp on the gas
Connect a message, a little missed
一瞬で ステアリング

海岸線 逆光線
すべりこむ スカイライン

In a moment, staring
Flying through time
Coastline, backlight,
Sliding in skyline

Let us falsely courageous ones ride
From the studio, nocturne
Connect a message, past and future
遠く せまる 青い ハイビーム tooku semaru aoi haibiimu Far away, drawing near, blue high-beam

Let us scared ones ride
Quickly to the next tail-light
Connect a message, past and future, changing world, connecting...

Where can I get Tourist On The Mirai in Ireland? I've tried my hardest and I have had no success.

Thanks,
David

I think your best bet would be an import shop such as yesasia.com; they tend to have most everything, and for reasonable prices. I have also found good deals on clammbon CDs at play-asia.com.
