Lyric

My Wife Says... ~The Smith Blues~

SHIONO, Twilight Master

シワだらけのトレンチコート染み付いたタバコ

「おいスミス、お前また現場で居眠りか？」って上官の怒声

でも俺は気にしないさ、今夜も定時で帰るのさ

なぜって？うちのカミさんがこう言うんだから――

「あなた、あまり無理して世界を救う暇があったら、

スーパーで牛乳を買ってきてちょうだいね」ってな！

ハッ、CIAの極秘任務より、嫁の小言の方が難解なのさ

Just a weary man in a worn-out coat

Keeping the secrets of a sinking boat

They call me a shadow, a federal ghost

Working the cases that hurt me the most

My wife thinks I'm boring, just an insurance guy

While I'm dodging bullets under a D.C. sky

Yeah, Smith is my name, keeping up the disguise

With a cheap cup of coffee and tired eyes

若造のプロファイラーは「論理的だ」と粋がるけれど

現場の修羅場じゃ、このボロい靴底の勘が物を言う

Kストリートの裏で政権がひっくり返ろうが

ソ連の亡霊がワシントンを這い回ろうが

俺の仕事は一つ、証拠を隠して、上司の機嫌を取ること

「ねえ、あなた、今夜の夕食は何がいい？」って

無線機の向こうでカミさんが笑ってる

……クソ、愛してるぜ、ダーリン

Just a weary man in a worn-out coat

Keeping the secrets of a sinking boat

They call me a shadow, a federal ghost

Working the cases that hurt me the most

My wife thinks I'm boring, just an insurance guy

While I'm dodging bullets under a D.C. sky

Yeah, Smith is my name, keeping up the disguise

With a cheap cup of coffee and tired eyes

……あ、そうだ。もう一つだけいいですか？（Just one more thing...）

あの若造（探偵くん）がまた面倒事を持ち込まなきゃいいんだが。

まったく、うちのカミさんの手前、定時には帰らなきゃならんのでね。

……じゃあな、次の現場へ行くとするさ。

SHIONO, Twilight Master

Saving the world is hard, but getting home for dinner is harder.
The cynical, witty blues of a weary D.C. agent caught between state secrets and domestic life.

Immerse yourself in the world of Twilight Master's neo-noir mystery, Millennium Optics: The US Profiling of Rintaro Kadowaki, with its delightfully cynical character theme song: "My Wife Says... (The Smith Blues)".

https://kakuyomu.jp/works/2912051606369360326

Between K-Street conspiracies and dealing with young detective Rintaro Kadowaki, CIA agent Smith has a lot on his plate. Yet, his biggest challenge is answering his wife's call about groceries. Set to a vintage 70s spy-funk groove with wah-wah guitars and punchy horns, this track captures the humorous, weary charm of the series' unsung middle-management hero.

"Forget top-secret protocols. A nagging wife is the ultimate classified puzzle."

Alongside my day job, I continue to pursue creative writing. I constantly strive to maintain an objective, third-party perspective on history and detail throughout my creative process. It's a continuous cycle of envisioning scenes and imagery while adding text and words, but my guiding principle is to craft quality works. I believe that without fulfilling my social responsibility as an author, my work holds no value. Thus, I adhere to the creed that -The pen is mightier than the sword-. Also, I am a multilingual creator who continues to explore and express emotions that cannot be fully captured by words, translating them into high-quality music that deepens and extends the experience of my work. Welcome to my Universe!
