The original version by Miles Davis was one of his most bluesy compositions. I've been a fan of his and his amazing bands since 1970. He was a musical visionary and the title suggests perhaps visionary in other ways too. I've learned a lot trying to write worthy lyrics and copy some of his licks on harmonica. Thank you Miles

RED CHINA BLUES

If forced to comply and not allowed to choose
Cos if you asked why you would suffer abuse
With no choices for any dissenters
All voices heavily censored
What could you do if you were stood in those shoes?
CBDC social credit score
Tracked and traced for ever more
Watch out! These are the Red China Blues!

We can’t just believe what we read in the evening news
Mainstream media’s the mouthpiece of powers that rule
They present their stories as black and white
This is wrong, only this is right
They twist or ignore independent views
Their paid experts want us to think
There’s only yellow, brown or pink
Don’t be green! They're planting the Red China Blues!

(What we all need is peace!)
Peace has no colour, no country, no confusion
Peace has no politics, no pretence, no illusions
Peace is a feeling so divine
and peace is within us all the time
When you know peace you know it is the solution
Please find the peace in your heart
And please be wise, be conscious, be smart
Don’t snooze! Refuse the Red China Blues!
