Japanese Girlfriend Lyrics by Oscillator X

Silicon Samurai

2010

[Verse 1]
I take the subway train, it seems to take all day
To get to South Houston, where my baby waits
My watch goes tick-tock, tick-tock
At every stop along the way
It's getting late
I know, I know
It's just a little bit farther
'Til we get to Mercer Street
Where she waits so patiently
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I work all day (Work all day)
On this concrete isle beneath the canopy (Canopy)
Of the Manhattan skyline
What in the world is he gonna do?
[Chorus]
I, I got a Japanese girlfriend
(He's got a Japanese girlfriend)
I got a Japanese girlfriеnd
I, I got a Japanese girlfriend
(Hе's got a Japanese girlfriend)
I got a Japanese girlfriend
[Interlude]
[?]
[Verse 2]
I step off the subway train
Must be nearly an hour late
To get to South Houston, where my baby waits
I scan the candlelit room for a while (For a while)
Until I spot a familiar face
One look at her almond eyes and my worries drift away
I know, I know
It's just a fleeting oasis
A momentary haven in
The crazy world we're living in
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I work all day (Work all day)
On this concrete isle beneath the canopy (Canopy)
Of the Manhattan skyline
What in the world is he gonna do?
[Chorus]
I, I got a Japanese girlfriend
(He's got a Japanese girlfriend)
I got a Japanese girlfriend
I, I got a Japanese girlfriend
(He's got a Japanese girlfriend)
I got a Japanese girlfriend
Japanese girlfriend
