Testo Tokyo Joe Bryan Ferry
(Ferry)
My girl Friday she no square
She like lotus blossom in her hair
Be-bop records and something new
Sometimes borrowed but sheôs never blue
Oh no........not Tokyo Joe
Way past midnight - she not home
She cut the ice down the Danger Zone
Water-tight dresses - she donôt care
A trifle risquÃÆ'©, a tart, no sir........
Oh no........sounds like Tokyo Joe
Geisha girl show you she adore you
Two oriental eyes implore you
Femme fatale or ingenue?
She very cunning, fiendish clever
Geisha girl suffer many times a fool
Sayonara moon
When all the worldôs a stage, oh where are you?
Tokyo Rose on the radio
Or Diz ôn Bird puttinô on the moan
Tappinô out telexes to Tupelo
Dear John, doh ray me fah so?
Letôs go........call for Tokyo Joe
Walkinô tall down the Danger Zone
She hokey-cokey till the cows come home
Big shot - from the hip - neon cool
Say, when youôve been around, whatôs left to do?
Donôt know? Ask Tokyo Joe
So inscrutable her reply
"Ask no question and tell me no lie"
GI boys howlinô out for more
VIPôS purrinô "je tôadore"........
Ah so........thatôs Tokyo Joe
