I used Google Gemini to come up with original Chinese lyrics. Here is the prompt I used:
Write a song in Chinese about a girl who loves napping. Every chance she gets, even at work, she will sneak off to take a nap. In her car at a traffic light, she will nap for 90 seconds. Each line should be about 11 characters.
It ignored my request for 11 characters. It seems to be following a standard convention I've seen for Chinese poetry maybe? ( 4 / 3 characters)
Voicebank used is Synthesizer V Eleanor Forte which was then replaced in Replay with Amelia Watson RVC (created by dacoolkid44). I did not want it to sound like a native Chinese speaker singing, so using a Synth V English voicebank works great since using them to sing in Chinese or Japanese is not optimal (compared to using Chinese or Japanese voicebank to sing in English which works extremely well).
Harmony vocals by Synthesizer V Qing Su with parameters set up to sound like Gawr Gura. No RVC swapping here.
I think the result is very believable! I think it sounds like Amelia Watson trying to sing in Chinese.

English Version
(Verse 1)
The world's so busy, I'm so beat
Work piles up, a towering feat
My colleagues work so hard, so strong
But all I want is to sleep all night long
(Verse 2)
At meetings, I steal a sneaky glance
Boss talks, my ears miss half the chance
Eyes closed tight, pretending to listen so well
Ten minutes later, I'm awake and swell
(Chorus)
Ninety seconds at a red light's hold
Turn my car into a dream unfold
Lunch break's never long enough, you see
A power nap's the boost I need
(Verse 3)
Weekend's home, with sunshine bright
Couch becomes my bed, sleep takes flight
Parents nag me, "Get up and move!"
But all I want is dreams to groove
(Chorus)
Ninety seconds at a red light's hold
Turn my car into a dream unfold
Lunch break's never long enough, you see
A power nap's the boost I need
(Bridge)
They call me lazy, a sleepyhead
But I love this feeling in my head
Short breaks keep my focus keen
The nap queen, with worries unseen
(Chorus)
Ninety seconds at a red light's hold
Turn my car into a dream unfold
Lunch break's never long enough, you see
A power nap's the boost I need
