Tokyo Rose - Van Dyke Parks[00:00:00]
In sight of the lights of Roppongi the night life of To ki yo goes[00:01:21]
And out on the street with a beat from Tahiti a neon moon lollipop glows[00:01:29]
A woman in silken pajamas is seen on the screen of a door[00:01:39]
She slips on a ricepaper dress by Dior less the price of the ice on her clothes[00:01:47]
The girl I call To ki yo Rose[00:01:55]
Tokyo rose is blue[00:02:01]
Tokyo knows it's true[00:02:05]
What the night says we might like to do[00:02:09]
We're in Tokyo time[00:02:17]
When that moon turns lime[00:02:21]
And the sky is a lavender brew[00:02:25]
She trips through a door for hot sake[00:02:41]
Unzips as her hips hit the floor[00:02:45]
Her pearls were strung in the harbor below in a bar where I asked her for more[00:02:49]
Down on a Cajun veranda a Barbajian band in a stew[00:03:26]
Was playing a soca when I reawoke we were back at her penthouse us two[00:03:34]
I spoke of my love for MacArthur the man not the park in L A [00:03:42]
But you're so much older she covered her shoulder[00:03:50]
And I heard her say with a sigh[00:03:54]
A soldier may never say die[00:03:57]
