Shintaro Lyrics by Men at Work

Cargo

1983

Oh Tokyo, lived Shintaro
Little Koga ninjas tried to take him away
But Shintaro, he's not alone
Got Koga ninjas of his own
They help him in the fight
Look out here come the samurai
Geisha girls with silken curls
Giggle about this guy
They want to comb his ponytail
Become Mrs. Samurai
But he's a fat little Jap chap
But don't you tell him that
He might slice you in two
Or get some of the mist onto you
Oh Toyko, Lived Shintaro
Oh Toyko, Lived Shintaro
Oh Toyko, Oh Toyko
