Lotus Root Pattern words and music by Tomoko SHIMASAKI
I go to Kichijoji station to go shopping, I'm dreaming about living together
I want bowls with lotus root patterns, so I take notice of them
I go to Shimo-kitazawa for my part-time job, rather than hesitating when I could quit
I mastered my job skills fairly well, because I worked without excuses
In my seventh year since coming up to Tokyo, I stop because someone calls me
A friend who I got to know in Osaka gets off the same train
What have I come here for, left my hometown
I've never forgotten it, but I'm afraid to remember it
I go to Shibuya to perform today. This is the first performance of the year
There is only a small audience, it makes me come to my senses
Please keep cool and look around, you may actually be mortified
You are offended, sulky and run away because you don't have confidence and are scared about things
I want to live while singing my songs with all my heart in front of lots of people
I want to sing loudly to my heart's content in front of lots of people
I go to Kichijoji station to go shopping, I was dreaming about living together
The bowls with lotus root patterns are sold out, they have disappeared

Artist Profile
Tomoko SHIMASAKI
As in love, there are romantic feelings. As in a trick, there are comical, eccentric feelings. In her music, Tomoko's naked soul is fired sharply at the listener. She spins the movement of sensitive minds into a state of calmness... She uses these feelings to their fullest natural application. This sense of hers is a unique talent in Japan. She freely changes her masks, man or woman, child or old man. She becomes an infant hungry for affection, a girl falling in love, a man who can't be independent, a neglected guy who can't get along with others, a tired wife who laments her life, a woman who loves a foolish man, a person struggling to achieve their dreams. Her songs are naturally intimate with the feelings of their characters and with the nuances of life. They contain affectionate opinions about the clumsiness that humans possess. Tomoko Shimasaki's songs are for all people. *For Tomoko's CV and the literal translations of her lyrics, please refer to the link below. http://8-shimasaki-8.com/
