LYRICS

Last night when I was laying in my bed
Had a dream of a flag in white and red
Swiss cross turned into the japan dot

A yellow girl appeared and made me hot



She took me to her place - a Geisha house

There was tea rice-booze & ceremony

I got undressed she had me washed

I felt her body and I was lost



Tokyo nights hot burning lights

Tokyo nights you took my mind away

Made me obsessed by loving fights



Soon I remembered I stayed in a dream

And I could make a try to change the scene

The geisha girl was just too hot for me

I tried to wake up unsuccessfully



And even as the big alarm-clock rang

Outside my window the first blackbird sang

My yellow girlfriend didn't leave my head

Got to stay forever in her bed



Tokyo nights hot burning lights

Tokyo nights you took my mind away

I'm in the spell of your delights
