My Woman From Tokyo (one line in song)


"Talk about her like a queen....dancing in Eve's latrine."

What? emoticon I don't think I've ever heard that quite right, but it sure is funny.

Wonder what the real words are? emoticon

I think the latter part is something about "an Eastern dream" - or that's how I've always heard it. emoticon

Talk about her like a Queen
Dancing in an eastern dream
Yeah, she makes me feel like a river
That carries me away

Well, okay! That sure makes a helluva' lot more sense than someone dancing in a place where someone else has taken a piss! emoticon

I feel better about the song already! Thanks. emoticon

But I've heard an interesting alternative bridge which could be sung in Hiroshima:

"So far away from the garden we love
She is what moves in the soul of a dove
Soon I should see just how black was your rain
When we're alone in the city of pain
"

"You and me Baby
Are nothing but mammals
So let's do what they do
On the Discovery channel"

I'm sure ive got a latter day boot with another variation;

"So far away from the garden we love
She is what moves in the soul of a dove
Soon I should see just how black was your night
When we're alone in the city of light"
