Tokyo Joe Lyrics

Artist: Bryan Ferry
Album: In Your Mind

(Ferry)

My girl Friday she no square
She like lotus blossom in her hair
Be-bop records and something new
Sometimes borrowed but she´s never blue
Oh no........not Tokyo Joe
Way past midnight - she not home
She cut the ice down the Danger Zone
Water-tight dresses - she don´t care
A trifle risqu, a tart, no sir........
Oh no........sounds like Tokyo Joe
Geisha girl show you she adore you
Two oriental eyes implore you
Femme fatale or ingenue?
She very cunning, fiendish clever
Geisha girl suffer many times a fool
Sayonara moon
When all the world´s a stage, oh where are you?
Tokyo Rose on the radio
Or Diz ´n Bird puttin´ on the moan
Tappin´ out telexes to Tupelo
Dear John, doh ray me fah so?
Let´s go........call for Tokyo Joe
Walkin´ tall down the Danger Zone
She hokey-cokey till the cows come home
Big shot - from the hip - neon cool
Say, when you´ve been around, what´s left to do?
Don´t know? Ask Tokyo Joe
So inscrutable her reply
"Ask no question and tell me no lie"
GI boys howlin´ out for more
VIP´S purrin´ "je t´adore"........
Ah so........that´s Tokyo Joe
