行きずりのブルース
泉谷しげる Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

なんであいつを悪いと決めた
誰があの娘をあわれと決めた
どうしてあいつがえらばれた
あとさきも考えずに
知らない仲でもあるまいし
ときおりのぞく欲望が
誰かにつられてあばれだし
時代錯誤にののしり合い
それほどにくい相手なら
ひとおもいに殺ればいい
残るものがなんであれ
それが今だと思うなら

何もみていない
誰もみていない
怒る前は
ですぎたマネはしませんが
とてもひとりじゃ生きられねえ
どっちつかずのひきょう者でも
愛することはわすれないはず
なんであいつを悪いと決めた
誰があの娘をあわれと決めた
どうしてあいつがえらばれた
あとさきも考えずに

何を見ていない
誰が見ていない
何か見たいのさ




誰を見たいのか
怒る前に

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song 行きずりのブルース (Iki zurui no buruusu) by 泉谷しげる (Shigeru Izumiya) depict a sense of frustration with societal norms and expectations. The singer questions why certain people are deemed as 'bad' or 'pitiful' and why others are chosen as deserving. He wonders why desires occasionally surface and lead him to act irrationally. The lyrics suggest that society often engages in name-calling and verbal abuse, which is outdated and unproductive, and proposes that it's better to confront one's enemies and take them down.


The singer, however, seems somewhat conflicted as he acknowledges that he cannot live alone and must strive for love despite being a coward sometimes who has trouble making decisions. He ends the lyrics by repeating the earlier questions about what people are seeing and who they are looking at, ultimately urging listeners to avoid anger and rash decisions.


Overall, the lyrics of 行きずりのブルース capture the singer's frustration with the arbitrariness of societal norms and expectations and his conflicting desire for love and fear of confrontation.
