lyrics

come on boy
come on boy you know you're better than this
come on boy
come on boy you know you're better than this
you feel your deal is graver than anyone else's
and i won't be glib
you know, maybe it is

don't let them know what you're feeling
don't let them know what you're feeling
but i can figure you'd know
figaro
yeah, you know

come on let's go, let's go
let's go on furlough
come on let's go to japantown
come on let's see
who you want to be
come on let's go to japantown
to japantown

come on boy
come on boy the white city awaits
come on boy
you know the light will guide the way
leonora's hyenas
will gather you up
and they'll take you to all of the moons
and send me a postcard - do it soon
your oyster's in another sea

come on let's go, let's go
let's go on furlough
come on let's go to japantown
come on let's see
who you want to be
come on let's go to japantown
to japantown
to japantown
to japantown

keep it in your heart
keep it in your heart
