Bruce Cockburn - Tokyo 326 lyrics

Your rating:

They're getting prepared to haul a car out of the river
Noise and smoke and concrete seem to be going on forever
Grinding gears and drivers getting high on exhaust
i'm thinking about the water down below and what got lost

Pachinko jingle and space torpedo beams
Comic book violence and escaping steam
Grey suited business men pissing against the wall --
Cut to crumbling guardrail, slow motions car fall

Oh Tokyo -- I never can sleep in your arms
Mind keeps on ringing like a fire alarm
Me and all the other dice bouncing around in the cup
Did you have to show me that accident scene
Didn't I get enough shaking up?
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Dragon of good fortune struggles with trickster fox
Energy and patience and the power of the buck
Tonight I'm flying headlong
to  meet  the  dark  red  edge  of  dawn
I know somebody will be crying
and somebody will be gone

Oh Tokyo --  (repeat chorus
Get this song at:
