Nick Lowe - Gai-Gin Man lyrics

Touchdown Narita five G.M.T. 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
