[verse] so much for the afterglow / and in trusting what I know the morning's coffee and cigarettes / and whisky the night before to say my life was normal / and the world was fine, you'd think? took a finger quoted "biblical" plague / and a swindler emperor king. [pre-chorus] i got no idea about where i go / take us to a mochi stand in Tokyo Let's go get some ramen down in Hokkaido / Maybe learn some zen and try some Bushido (oh oh) I haven't done Karate since ninety four / Maybe kick my fears out the shoji door Lets get some highballs down in Kyoto / find a midnight diner to make friends to go (oh oh) [verse] things are so hilarious / in this surrealistic dream that turned into a nightmare / faster than I drink I look outside the window / and chuckle to myself a mushroom cloud outside / might fix this surrealistic hell [pre-chorus] i got no idea about where i go / take us to a mochi stand in Tokyo Let's go get some ramen down in Hokkaido / Maybe learn some zen and try some Bushido (oh oh) I haven't done Karate since ninety four / Maybe kick my fears out the shoji door Lets get some highballs down in Kyoto / find a midnight diner to make friends to go (oh oh) [chorus] Lets go to Japan and go Leave everything, close the door (oh) Lets go to Japan and go (oh) Leave everything and go (oh oh) [chorus - catchy shamisen solo] [pre-chorus] i got no idea about where i go / take us to a mochi stand in Tokyo Let's go get some ramen down in Hokkaido / Maybe learn some zen and try some Bushido (oh oh) I haven't done Karate since ninety four / Maybe kick my fears out the shoji door Lets get some highballs down in Kyoto / find a midnight diner to make friends to go (oh oh) [Final chorus] Lets go to Japan and go Leave everything, close the door (oh) Lets go to Japan and go (oh) Leave everything and go (oh oh) Lets go to Japan and go Leave everything, close the door (oh) Lets go to Japan and go (oh) Leave everything and go (oh oh)
