This is a blues song that quietly, yet sharply, questions the gap between "idealism and reality" in Japanese politics.

Inspired by the sight of a politician on a television screen in the bustling streets of Shinjuku, the song depicts a person who once held strong ideals, but who has since lost sight of their original purpose under the guise of "accepting both the pure and the corrupt."

"If you keep drinking dirty water, you'll forget what clean water tastes like."
This core lyric is a powerful warning against losing sight of one's initial purpose through compromise and habit. It touches upon a universal theme that resonates not only with politicians but also in our daily lives.

The simple acoustic guitar and a lonely harmonica express a sense of nostalgia for lost ideals and an unshakable feeling of disappointment. This blues song is not merely a critique; it is a quiet question that invites us to re-examine our future with a pure heart.
