Doll That's Made in Japan
An honourable man picks a slender orchid
And crushes it between his hands
The sacred knife of a Samurai
Serves up sushi in a sandwich bar
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
Tigerlily with eyes of jade
Takes you to a carnival of toy balloons
See a kite floating by
With the face of a Chinese mandarin
It's such a different world, it's hard to remember
Which land you're in
I seem to recall a milk white hand
Painted with blood red fingernails
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A tiny girl with empty hands
Walks the streets of Tokyo
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
As you fly through the city of empty souls
You feel that the wind is whispering
And crushes it between his hands
The sacred knife of a Samurai
Serves up sushi in a sandwich bar
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
Tigerlily with eyes of jade
Takes you to a carnival of toy balloons
See a kite floating by
With the face of a Chinese mandarin
It's such a different world, it's hard to remember
Which land you're in
I seem to recall a milk white hand
Painted with blood red fingernails
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A tiny girl with empty hands
Walks the streets of Tokyo
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
A doll that's made in Japan
Is made for every man
Na na na na na na na na na na
As you fly through the city of empty souls
You feel that the wind is whispering
