        Tokyo Joe  -  Bryan Ferry


                    

        
        My girl Friday she no square

        She like lotus blossom in her hair

        Be-bop records and something new

        Sometimes borrowed but she's never blue
                     
        Oh no... not Tokyo Joe

        Way past midnight - she not home
        She cut the ice down the Danger Zone
        Watertight dresses - she don't care
        A trifle risqu, a tart, no sir...
        Oh no... sounds like Tokyo Joe

          
          
            

                                 
        Geisha girl show you she adore you
                       
        Two oriental eyes implore you
                        
        Femme fatal or ingenue?
                               
        She very cunning, fiendish clever
                                 
        Geisha girl suffer many times a fool
             
        Sayonara moon
                                                    
        When all the world's a stage, oh where are you?

        Tokyo Rose on the radio
        Or Diz'n Bird puttin' on the moan
        Tappin' our telexes to Tupelo
        Dear John, doh ra me fah so?
        Let's go... call for Tokyo Joe

        Walkin' tall down the Danger Zone
        She hokey-kokey till the cows come home
        Big shot - from the hip - neon cool
        Say, when you've been around, what's left to do?
        Don't know? Ask Tokyo Joe

        So inscrutable her reply
        "Ask no question and me tell no lie"
        GI boys howlin' out for more
        VIP'S purrin' "je t'adore"...
        Ah so... that's Tokyo Joe
