Lyrical Analysis of...
23 Ward Blues
- (E7) Down in Shibuya where the homeless lay in shrouds
- (A7) Out the station exit, among the largest crowds
- (E7 X 2) Waiting, smoking, talking without a care,
- Enjoying the scent of blowing lady hair
- (A7 X 2) Walking to the crossing among beautiful girls
- Smiles, smirks, winks, and innocent frowns
- (E7 X 2) Some with so much flare they look like clowns
- Others so gorgeous in their fashion gowns
- (B7) I've got the Shibuya blues,
- (A7) Strolling through this ward,
- (E7) Looking for all the clues,
- (B7) That can be put down in song and chord
- (E7) Down in Shinjuku where the party never ends
- (A7) Out the station exit, among crazy trends
- (E7 X 2) Walking, strutting, shuffling and bumping
- Lookin' right and left in a town constantly jumping
- (A7 X 2) Keeping my ground with a stroke of caution
- Among the underworld sellin' their toxin
- (E7 X 2) Stares, glares, and intimidating gawks
- While walking among the mafioso hawks
- (B7) I've got the Shinjuku blues,
- (A7) Strolling through this ward,
- (E7) In my hoochie coochie shoes,
- (B7) Down in Shinjuku feeling deplored
- (E7) Down in Roppongi where the bars don't close
- (A7) Out the station exit, with a Japanese rose
- (E7 X 2) Tripping, rambling, and strolling in a stuper
- Drooling on club girls who walk like a trooper
- (A7 X 2) So many street touts feels like Nigeria
- Hard to tell the difference, they could be from Algeria
- (E7 X 2) Country women flock to this town
- Only to return without a gown
- (B7) I've got the Roppongi blues,
- (A7) Strolling through this ward,
- (E7) Looking forward to a good snooze,
- (B7) After all night trying to stay aboard
