Red and Blue
The only thing we ever knew
But we are broken
Red and Blue
More of me and less of you
Shut it down while we’re still fighting
Everything is getting washed somewhere in between
While the whole world seems to laugh at us
Turn on and turn it off again

("red" and "blue" in chorus part. There is no political messages in the art work or the song.)
Major and Minor by Shu Nakamura 2020
Major and Minor
Walking on a wire
They’re suddenly frozen
As the moment is stolen
Time is just passing by
Taking colors of red and blue
Nevertheless not knowing why
It’s all given, for me and for you
And it all just goes through
Major and Minor
The fighting is over
No one is a winner
No one is a loser
Time is just passing by
Taking colors of red and blue
Nevertheless not knowing why
It’s all given, for me and for you
And it all just goes through
(Instrumental)
Time is just passing by
Taking colors of red and blue
Nevertheless not knowing why
It’s all given, for me and for you
And it all just goes through
Major and Minor
Major and Minor…

I been thinking a lot these days about equality
Growing up, breaking down, getting old Now that’s humanity
Some see red, others black, false or true
What’s the difference, we’re all people, what can we do?
Be colorblind - see our differences as positives
Open your mind and
Be colorblind - see each other, be each other
Be colorblind
I’ve been missing a lot these days stuck on the inside, ah ah
Giving up, letting go, holding on, in this landslide
Some see blue, others white, dont judge that book
What’s the solution, open your eyes, take a look!
Be colorblind - see the differences as positives
Open your mind and
Be colorblind - see each other, be each other
Be colorblind

It's been awhile
Yeah it's been a real long time
Since I've had a lady
Cause ladies don't waste their time
Maybe my jordache Jean's n white tennis shoes
Knight rider jacket, and mullet hairdo
Will come back in style so I can shake these blues
And I'll find a lady with red lipstick
Big bushy hair on her head and down there
And we'll walk the mall like its 1986
I'll show her karate, and she'll be impressed
And she'll be rubbing that oil all over her…

Don’t think nobody knows
Cause I saw it all
In the blues of your eyes
Dulling your days’ shadows
You’ve built you a wall
But the memories won’t die
Out on the ocean so far from the shore
weathers the pull of the tides
Made it as far as the border tonight
Only to chase a mirage
It’s the wish on a shooting star
The chord on a cheap pawn shop guitar
The instant you know just who you are
And what you’ve done
Cause I sold it all downstream
Borrowed a mask from a snake oil dream
Watched it all fade like steam
In the eye of the sun
Built me an armory
Plated with steel
All my shame I can stow
But one bitter memory
The devil’s own
for my red blood to flow
Out on the ocean so far from the shore
weathers the pull of the tides
Made it as far as the border tonight
Only to chase a mirage
It’s the wish on a shooting star
The chord on a cheap pawn shop guitar
The instant you know just who you are
And what you’ve done
Cause I sold it all downstream
Borrowed a mask from a snake oil dream
Watched it all fade like steam
In the eye of the sun

Bleeding red the ground gave way
To seven Hells’ broken day
Moon touched steel and driving rains
At Saint Mihiel of broken chains
With Autumn chill and mud knee deep
Prayed to the Lord our souls to keep
Tanks ploughed trench as we moved ahead
The salient won, thousands dead
On our way it rained five days
Yet on we crept through the haze
0500 the shells did fly
So much lead it blacked the sky
Old glory, that red, white, and blue
Presided over ended youth
On to the breach
Ye soldiers of light
Let’s give ‘em Hell
Show ‘em what’s right
Us 1st Army boys
We’ll turnthe tide
And come November
They’ll run and hide

A Wild Horizon
I’m looking away from you lost in my mind
Wandering far away far away
Trying to make up the time that disappeared into another day
Out on a wild horizon eyes on the clouds gray white waves on the water on the water ..There is a raging river blood in it’s flames gathers it’s victims to slaughter
Who is forgiving born from the sky above
Who is distant Regal and lacking in love
Blue in the city of angels ..startled by snow . wheels slide by my window
Red is a fire wall built by a madman and fearing a nuclear glow
Who is forgiving born from the sky above
Who is distant Regal and lacking in love
Out on a wild horizon eyes on the clouds gray white waves on the water

v1:
A hundred shades of yellow
and a few of blue & red
Some colors that I can't describe
are swirling in my head
You set it up for all to see
It should take flight instead
ch:
C'mon, boomerang
Why you hangin' 'round?
You'll never truly live until you hit the ground
C'mon, boomerang
It's up to you
You were built to fly, you know it's true
v2:
It crossed the mighty ocean
to end up in our town
A beauty like we've never seen
Allow me to break it down
Imagine if it did its job,
it surely would astound
ch:
C'mon, boomerang
Why you hangin' 'round?
You'll never truly live until you hit the ground
C'mon, boomerang
It's up to you
You were built to fly, you know it's true
-- some sort of solo --
v3:
You probably won't believe it
when I show you through the glass
Just a bit of history,
like something from the past
But it's something to be used and loved,
it comes to you at last
ch:
C'mon, boomerang
Why you hangin' 'round?
You'll never truly live until you hit the ground
C'mon, boomerang
It's up to you
You were built to fly, you know it's true
ch:
C'mon, boomerang
Why you hangin' 'round?
You'll never truly live until you hit the ground
C'mon, boomerang
It's up to you
You were built to fly, you know it's true

The bluejay sings
His bluejay song
Like a dancer sleeps
With her red shoes on
You got some truth to speak
Before you’re gone
Nobody knows
What happens next
Unbound joy or
Deep regret
You gotta bare the soul
Inside your chest
Float through your days
Say what you mean
Like a hungry child
In a lucid dream
You got some truth to speak
Before you’re gone
Banish your fear
And never rest
Til your heart is full
And your love confessed
You gotta bare the soul
Inside your chest
Stand tall, child
Greet the dawn
Look deep in the pool
At the face of your swan
You got some truth to speak
Before you’re gone
Be your dream
Don’t compromise
Kindle the spark, keep the
Fire in your eyes
You gotta bare the soul
Inside your chest
The bluejay sings
His bluejay song
Like a dancer sleeps
With her red shoes on
You got some truth to speak
Before you’re gone
Nobody knows
What happens next
Unbound joy or
Deep regret
You gotta bare the soul
Inside your chest

Daily dose of dopamine
Scrolling up and down the screen
Looking at guitars I’ll never buy
Stop to watch the world unfold
Happy Birthday, getting old,
Live it up until we die
Leave the bills in the mailbox
Dishes in the sink
Laundry’s like mountains
So it’s time for a drink
Bottles been empty
For a couple of weeks
This trickle down effect’s
Got me on the brink
Daily dose of dopamine
Pictures of pretty scenes
Of places I’ll never go
And otherwise, a clear divide
Red and blue in black and white
Pays to keep us out of the know
We could use a new slate
From bottom to the top
But they’ve all got us spinning
To take what we’ve got
Term limits, a start,
With no pension to bank
Outlaw lobbyists, earmarks
And all the think tanks
Take comfort in the dopamine
I probably should be practicing
