On the Ginza Strip the 100th building on the 100th floor

Dream team life enhancing behind the 100th door

Sukiyaki carried me to this place

Have to hari kari if ever I lose face



Western girls at Lexington Queen

Are the prettiest girls I've ever seen

I'd gladly part with hard earned Yen

Just so I could be with them



Chain smoking at the Singalong Bar

Wedged into the Subway Car

Heat up some more rice wine

Somebody just jumped on the line



Robots have run amok on the factory floor

Been 20 years at Sony and I can see 20 more

Hi-tech sex, wireless sets, samurai

Western ways, baseball games, apple pie



Though some will say we imitate

Produce the goods at a cheaper rate

Faster too reduced in size

Our ingenuitys' realised



I had to grab a massage cab

I left my briefcase at the lab

Godzilla ate the bullet train

Won't see Kyoto ever again



Now Papa jumped the gun back in '41

Following the flag of the rising sun

When Tojo did the Mojo, he was downed in flames

U.S. Destroyer and kamikaze plan



The West don't learn from history

Doomed to repeat it endlessly

We put the past on to Fuji

And we erase it totally, yeah



Soon, we'll be known as Great Japan

Just like they do in Great Britain

Spelt microchip and solid state

The things that made this country great
