From the recording Konnichiwa! (Miss Osaka)
Lyrics
In dreams last night I disappeared
And I was flying east again
Up in the stratosphere
Mile High Club in a DC-10
Wondering no where you are
You were so beautiful
It’s no surprise that all I
Ever said to you was sha-la-la-la-la-la
Konnichiwa ocho-sama
Met you in a bar down by America-mura
Should make a movie on Midosuji
Of all the things we’ve done
Chotto-mate then hit Kyoto
When the cherry blossoms come
I remember how I watched you from afar
Guess I fell in love with you back then ocho-sama
I got to thinking how
Everything then was just like a dream to me
Spent our days drinking
I could never believe the way that you were so into me
I get so tongue-tied
And I stumble over my words
Guess it’s no surprise that all you
Ever heard was sha-la-la-la-la-la
Konnichiwa ocho-sama
Met you in a bar down by America-mura
Should make a movie on Midosuji
Of all the things we’ve done
Chotto-mate then hit Kyoto
When the cherry blossoms come
I remember how I watched you from afar
Guess I fell in love with you back then ocho-sama
When I look back now
You had it oh so figured out
Just stringing me along
Did you make Tokyo?
Bet you don’t dance to Rock ‘n’ Roll
Bet those days are long gone now
Bet you don’t sing no songs like
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Konnichiwa ocho-sama
Met you in a bar down by America-mura
Should make a movie on Midosuji
Of all the things we’ve done
Chotto-mate then hit Kyoto
When the cherry blossoms come
I remember how I watched you from afar
Guess I fell in love with you back then ocho-sam
