Lyrics:
(Yeah)
Flying cars up in Japan
XO girls up in Japan
Futuristic in Japan
Man, I love it in Japan
Samurai swords up in Japan
Mount Fuji in Japan
in the car
driving through Japan I guess four years now have passed
I've loved men before and I loved men after
I really thought
you were a light in
car
And I'm drivin' down to meet you at the Sushi Bar
But don't tell me I'm crazy until you hear my plan
I'm gonna buy two tickets and move to Japan
Manzanar
Fifty years, they've all but vanished
And now I am an old man
But I don't regret the day
That I came here from Japan
But on moonlit winter
Manzanar...
Fifty years, they've all but vanished
And now I am an old man
But I don't regret the day
That I came here from Japan
But on moonlit winter
My old car keeps breaking down
My new car ain't from Japan
There's already too many Datsuns
In this town
Another thing that's bugging me
Is
Whoa!
I can't believe we're in Japan!
Look at all the lights!
The food!
The people!
Wow!
We're three cool white friends in Japan (Japan!)
We've
Sumahama
There's a lover's leap in old Japan
Where the lovers walk along the sand
Hand-in-hand at Sumahama
Sumahama
Born a lovely oriental
Sumahama
There's a lover's leap in old Japan
Where the lovers walk along the sand
Hand-in-hand at Sumahama
Sumahama
Born a lovely oriental
My old car keeps breaking down
My new car ain't from Japan
There's already too many Datsuns
In this town
Another thing that's bugging me
Is
know where to go
I'm in Japan
I'm in Japan
I'm in Japan
I'm in Japan
Drifting cars in my yard
Down Tokyo Boulevard
If I can, I'll never leave
In this
An imitation from New York
You're made in Japan from cheese and chalk
You're hippy tarts hero
'Cause you put on a bad show
You put on a bad show
Early mornin' wake up
Gently with the Caress on your hand
And that Kimono that I bought you on my trip to Japan
Sunshine peekin' through
An imitation from New York
You're made in Japan from cheese and chalk
You're hippy tarts hero
'Cause you put on a bad show
You put on a bad show
see that.
Bitches with big asses, blunts, and big cars.
Shot callin' niggaz, pissy drunk in them titty bars.
Ren assassination; all of these
Turn on my VCR
Same one I've had for years
James Brown on the T.A.M.I Show
Same tape I've had for years
I sit in my old car
Same one I've had
Alone at night with sleepless eyes
The starlit sky don't seem to mind
A candle's burnin' a hundred years
Like a baby cryin' a thousand tears
Turn on my VCR
Same one I've had for years
James Brown on the T.A.M.I Show
Same tape I've had for years
I sit in my old car
Same one I've had
In 1984, as part of the press for the tour I was doing in Japan, I was asked to go to Bali and speak about the future with the prince of Ouboud. Now
What an amazing time
What a family
How did the years go by?
Now it's only me
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
What an amazing time
What a family
How did the years go by?
Now it's only me
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
Tick-tock
[Chorus]
Six hundred Benz, house six hundred grand
That was six years ago, whips come from Japan
I get that work from my face
I get that work
Try the made in Japan, Hong Kong or Singapore
Made in Japan
I went along to the showroom to buy myself a secondhand car
I didn't have much money so
Farther I go
I took a boat, I took a plane
Halfway around the world on a train
New York to Orleans, Japan to Tibet
But the farther I go, the closer
