Lousy Neighbor
Lousy Neighbor No matter where you move No matter which place you live in Right next to your door, they settle in You wish you could remove Only they will never give in Instead, to the end they dwell in Banging, stamping, drumming, clumping, They have got kids shrieking all day Laughing, yowling, shouting, howling, They have frolic every Friday Dancing, leaping, kicking, jumping, Why'd they set your anger to prime? Persistently, all the time The lousy neighbor's all around Bothering its neighbors with no ground The lousy neighbor's breathing on Until everyone else is all gone Love your neighbor, Lousy neighbor It could your snug room It could your lifetime dream house Right next to your door, war breaks out You wish them consume Everything to raise your eyebrows Instead, their bullets don't run out Beating, thumping, knocking, stomping, They know how to rub the wrong way Braying, calling, roaring, brawling, They know craft to stand in your way Crying, yapping, jawing, yelping, Why'd they drag you into this clutch? Consequently, hate so much The lousy neighbor's all around Bothering its neighbors with no ground The lousy neighbor's breathing on Until everyone else is all gone Love your neighbor, Lousy neighbor How could you teach Evil sinners Their out-of-reach Proper manners They are mad brutes Not worth two hoots Even so can you forgive? Is there mercy you should give? The lousy neighbor's all around Bothering its neighbors with no ground The lousy neighbor's breathing on Until everyone else is all gone The lousy neighbor's won't refrain From driving you completely insane The lousy neighbor's won't suspend Chasing after you to the world's end You, lousy neighbor You, noisy monster You, lousy neighbor You stick forever Love your neighbor
Sunrise
Sunrise Worked so hard Did my best Yet my life Never got better Tell me when I can rest So much I don't know Doesn't matter Life is cruel Full of pain Whom would I Call for a helper? Will it shine? Will it rain? So much I don't know Doesn't matter Worries are around me always In any ways Let wind dry away the tears To clear my eyes Even through this lonely, dark night I'll be all right 'Cause there will come Another sunrise Did I win? Did I lose? Where should I Look for the answer? Am I rich? Am I poor? So much I don't care Doesn't matter Problems wait and see how I face in any case Bad thinks fall upon me sometimes Good ones may likewise Even toward this dreary, bleak sight I'll be all right 'Cause there will come Another sunrise Worries are around me always In any ways Let wind dry away the tears To clear my eyes Even through this lonely, dark night I'll be all right 'Cause there will come Another sunrise Going slow It's my walk Feel no need Ending up faster People talk Let them talk So much I don't care Doesn't matter Doesn't matter Another sunrise Sunrise
Album : Hidemi / Hidemi Woods
Album Notes
After I released full-length albums of my band in Japan, I moved to U.S. and started this project. It took about 12 years to complete, but I’m entirely satisfied with the fruit. The first solo album as Hidemi Woods. I made the instruments’ arrangements, mixed down, did the mastering and sang, all by myself. I hope you enjoy my original songs with my sincere feelings, that are different from what you are used to listening.
