The land of the rising sun

So in demand the Yen gains strength

by the day buying power

Japan flowers spreading flowers scent

Enveloping our globe

Since I arriving (sic)

Been watching bullet trains

Hit speed of light

The view's ever changing

Mount Fuji still rules

The Imperial Japan

I'm dreaming of Japan

Still dreaming of Japan

I'm dreaming of Japan

Always dreaming of Japan

Harajuku shopping

Shibuya nightclubs greet me

With an Oriental Beat

Such a new scene so exciting

Presented to me all duty free

Geishas in Kimonos

Undress introduce me to sex Oriental style

Give it to me add to my memories

Of the far East

Oh is this Heaven

Or is this Hell

All lost and drunk

Down the Ginza again

Somebody translate get me to my hotel

Get me to a taxi let me talk about it

I'm Tokyo dreaming

My thoughts drift in to another place another time

How it feels so extremely sweet and so Japanese

In the land of the rising sun

The girls down Shibuya live that Oriental Beat

Yeah I'll go there

If not by airplane at least in my dreams
