Made In Japan
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I went down to my tailor, to get myself a suit, and to measure
It's been a long long time since I looked like a gentlemen of leisure
He spent an awful lot of time on my inside leg
You don't get that kind of treatment when you buy stuff of the peg
When I finally picked it up and saw the label inside
I saw a sight that made my mouth gape open wide.
It said made in Japan
Made in Japan
Their ain't nothing made here in this country anymore
Try the made in Japan, Hong Kong or Singapore
Made in Japan
I went along to the showroom to buy myself a secondhand car
I didn't have much money so I knew I wouldn't get very far
The salesman said " how much do intend to spend,
you only get what you pay for, in the end"
He said "you can't afford a Bentley or a Cadillac
But take a look at this motor I've got out back.
It said made in Japan
Made in Japan
Their ain't nothing made here in this country anymore
Try the made in Japan, Hong Kong or Singapore
Made in Japan
Me and my girl last week we went to church and got wed
I didn't bother cost so I decided I'd get married instead
We went to Miami for the honeymoon
I couldn't wait to get her in the hotel room
But when she came out of the bathroom,
My knees turned to jelly
Well I saw what she had tattooed just below her belly.
It said made in Japan
Made in Japan
Their ain't nothing made here in this country anymore
Try the made in Japan, Hong Kong or Singapore
Made in Japan
