Lyric

A Song for a Baby

Masahide Chiba

なぜ泣くの 赤子よ みんなの心が分かるのか

なぜ踊る 赤子よ 帰りたいなともがくのさ

嘆いているんだぜ こんな世界に生まれたことを

見下しているんだぜ もがき生きてる俺たちを

いつか いつか 遠いとこへ行こう

みんな みんな 帰りたがってるよ

探しているんだよ なくしてしまった自分の顔を

奪いにいくからね 君の所へ午前五時

なぜ泣くの 赤子よ みんなの心が分かるのか

なぜ踊る 赤子よ 帰りたいなともがくのさ

いつか いつか 遠いとこへ行こう

みんな みんな 帰りたがってるよ

嘆いているんだぜ こんな世界に生まれたことを

見下しているんだぜ もがき生きてる俺たちを

Azalea Hills is a typical neighborhood located in the west of the sprawling metropolis of Tokyo. It's about a twenty-minute train ride from Shinjuku, the hubbub of the commercial and administrative central hive of Tokyo. Close to the train station of Azalea Hills is a small old-fashioned music bar, Bless, where its regular customers retreat when the working day is done. They are from all walks of life: from a handyman to a major company executive, with ages ranging from early twenties to late sixties. The bar is owned and run by Changie, a forty-year veteran in the music industry. Every night, the regulars shuffle in to play their favorite music: from Japanese enka blues to rock'n'roll. Born out of their impromptu sessions and midnight sprees came this series of compilation albums produced by Bless Records Tokyo. The songs recorded here are not the performances of one special night, but it offers you an experience similar to anytime you open the old wooden door; walk into the bar; join all the regulars, glasses in hands; and listen.
