アウトドア派 - THE HIGH-LOWS

雨が降りそうな日に僕らは海へやってきた
雨が降りそうな日に本当に海へやってきた
まったくのアホウみたいに
まったくのアホウみたいに
雨が降りそうな日に僕らは靴を脱ぎ捨てた
雨が降りそうな日に僕らは手をつないだまま
まったくのアホウみたいに
まったくのアホウみたいに
どうして部屋にいなかったんだ?
やり立てのままのテレビゲーム
どうして部屋にいなかったんだ?
行きたいへこどがたくさんあるんだ
雨が降りそうな日にそれはきっといい事なんだ
雨が降りそうな日に風も強くなりそうだった
まったくのアホウみたいに
まったくのアホウみたいに
どうして部屋にいなかったんだ
やり立てのままのテレビゲーム
どうして部屋にいなかったんだ
行きたいへこどがたくさんあるんだ
雨が降りそうな日に僕らは海へやってきた
雨が降りそうな日に風も強くなりそうだった
まったくのアホウみたいに
まったくのアホウみたいに

On a day that looked like rain, we went to the sea and back
On a day that looked like rain, we really went to the sea and back
We must have looked like complete fools
We must have looked like complete fools
On a day that looked like rain, we took our shoes off and cast them aside
On a day that looked like rain, we stayed holding hands
We must have looked like complete fools
We must have looked like complete fools
Why weren't we inside?
We could have stayed and played a video game
Why weren't we inside?
There were many places we wanted to go
On a day that looked like rain, it was definitely a good thing
On a day that looked like rain, it looked like the wind would pick up too
We must have looked like complete fools
We must have looked like complete fools
On a day that looked like it would rain, we went to the sea and back
On a day that looked like rain, it looked like the wind would pick up too
We must have looked like complete fools
We must have looked like complete fools

OK, there, I tried catching all of the words in the song and translating it by myself. The only part I'm unsure about, both in terms of what the lyrics are in Japanese, and what it could mean in English, are the two answers after the line "Why weren't we inside?" That part is just my best guess, but the rest I think I'm pretty close on. I couldn't find a Japanese website with the song lyrics to check like I did with the last two songs. Also, as I was reminded of when I was looking through the wwwjdic for words that start with やり for the やり立て line, maybe the やって part of 海へやってきた means they went to the beach, had sex, and came back?
