Met the stranger there so I was

feeling somewhat scared

when I vacationed in a land that I

didn't know that well

but all the ladies there were nice

the gentlemen politely out of line

I kept on thinking how I'd like

to spend some time

I couldn't make up my mind, still

waitin' for the right sign

I was down in Tokio

livin' in hotel Imperial



Met this man, he was something

very strange

said he was a spy from somewhere

else way far away

he told me thing about myself that

I could tell nobody else

passed this message on to me, said

spirits move in secrecy

I could almost read the man's mind

waitin' for the right sign



Chorus

I really wanna know if I'm gonna go

live my life in Tokio, live my life in Tokio

Tokyo, live my life in Tokio



He passed this message on to me

said spirits move in secrecy

a double agent amnesty

an Ian Fleming mystery



I, I know I read the man's mind

I know I got the right sign



Repeat chorus
