THE RISING SUN

A BEAUTIFUL SUN?SET
SHINNING THROUGH THE MOUNTAIN PEEKS?
AND EVERYWHERE I LOOK?
IT?S LIKE A STUNNING ANTIQUE?
MT. FUJI IN THE BACKGROUND?
PAINTED WITH A FRESH COAT OF WHITE, WHITE SNOW
MELDING WITH THE BLUE, BLUE SHADED SKIES?
A SIGHT MOST EVERYBODY KNOWS?
CHORUS:
YEAH THAT?S THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN?.
WITH ALL ITS SUSHI AND WASABI
TAKE A LONG STROLL IN TOKYO
EAT A BIG PLATE OF SUKIYAKI?
CELEBRATE THE COMING YEAR
DRINKIN? SAKE AND HAVING FUN
GAIJIN EATS A BOWL OF RAMEN
IN THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN?
A WHOLE LOT OF HISTORY
WRAPPED UP IN HONOR AND BLOOD
REMEMBER THE SAMURAI
TRADITIONS THEY ALL LOVE?
WHERE MEN WORE SWORDS OF HONOR
WOMEN WEAR CLOTHES OF SMOOTH, SMOOTH SILK
SITTING AROUND DRINKING CEROMONIOUS TEA?
SINGING ABOUT PEACE, LOVE AND GOOD WILL
CHORUS:
BRIDGE
CLAP YOUR HANDS, CLAP, CLAP YOUR HANDS
TO THE SOUND OF THE SHAMISAN
CLAP YOUR HANDS, CLAP, CLAP YOUR HANDS
TO THE OLD TIME MOVES OF A GEISHA DANCE?
CHORUS
