Nick Lowe - Gai-Gin Man

Текст песни

But it’s nine hours later than that for me
Through immigration we did crawl
I’m a giant of a man in the customs hall
Osaka-Supporu that’s a two hour hop
Just time to grab a bite in the Skysnak shop
You’ve only got to utter one 'seema-seng'
That’s gonna set you back about a thousand yen
But me, I’m up here having nothing but fun
I’m a gai-gin man in the land of the rising sun
Well a nation’s waiting on a vacant throne
Hirohito’s heart-beat rhythm way on down
On the streets of the Ginza all they know
Is the crown prince flew back to Tokyo
But me I’m up here having nothing but fun
I’m gai-gin man in the land of the rising sun
I’m a gai-gin, gai-gin, gai-gin, gai-gin man
I’m a gai-gin, gai-gin, gai-gin, gai-gin man
Everybody kow-tow to me when we meet
While the kids cat-call at me in the street
They say there goes a gai-gin man, gai-gin man
I’m a gai-gin
Can’t you tell?
Gai-gin man
