Big In Japan

Song by Alphaville, music and lyrics by Gold, Mertens, Lloyd, from album "Forever Young".


Winter's cityside
Crystal bits of snowflakes all around my head and in the wind

I'd no illusions
That I'd ever find a glimpse of summer's heatwaves in your eyes

You did what you did to me
Now it's history I see
Here's my comeback on the road again

Things will happen while they can
I will wait for my man tonight
It's easy when you're big in Japan

Ah, when you're big in Japan
Tonight
Big in Japan
Be tight
Big in Japan
Ooh, the eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan
Alright
Pay, then I'll sleep by your side
Things are easy when you're big in Japan
Oh, when you're big in Japan

[instrumental interlude]

Neon on my naked skin
Passing silhouettes of strange illuminated mannequins

Shall I stay here at the zoo
Or should I go and change my point of view for other ugly scenes

You did what you did to me
Now it's history I... see

Things will happen while they can
I will wait for my man tonight
It's easy when you're big in Japan

Ah, when you're big in Japan
Tonight
Big in Japan
Be tight
Big in Japan
Ooh, eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan
Alright
Pay, then I'll sleep by your side
Things are easy when you're big in Japan

Ah, when you're big in Japan
Tonight
Big in Japan
Be tight
Big in Japan
Ooh, the eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan
Alright
Pay, then I'll sleep by your side
Things are easy when you're big in Japan
Ah, when you're big in Japan

Ah, when you're big in Japan
Tonight
Big in Japan
Be tight
Big in Japan
Ooh, the eastern sea's so blue

Big in Japan
Alright
Pay, then I'll sleep by your side
Things are easy when you're big in Japan
Ah, when you're big in Japan
