Late last night i got an s. o. s.

The fairy tale girl's in deep in distress

She says i don't know where i am

But it's near japan



My engine's all burned out

My crew has all bailed out

I don't know where i am

But it's somewhere near japan



And she said

"rescue me"

I'm somewhere in the

China sea

I think i'm sinkin' fast

This call is probably my last

I'm throwin' out a life line

And i'm doin' it for old time's sake

Though i know you're gonna break my heart

One more time



Late last night i got an s. o. s.

The fairy tale girl's in deep in distress

She says i don't know where i am

But it's near japan



My engine's all burned out

My crew has all bailed out

I don't know where i am

But it's somewhere near japan



And she said "thank you dear"

I think she sounded quite sincere

And when she turned to go

She said "i crave adventure don't you know"



And now she's driftin' on some chinese junk

Her world is spinning and her hope has sunk

So i close my eyes

And somewhere near japan

The spinning stopped and the world stood still

I broke her fall and i always will

Strung out in no man's land

Somewhere near japan

Rescue me
