Rockwell – Tokyo lyrics
I know a girl named Sue Yamaki
She's a street wise rebel of society
She had a lover who was twice her age
He controlled her mind, kept her body tame

They made love through the heat of the night
Whatever he desired without a fight
He was the vision of her fantasies
She was blinded by ecstasy

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu
Ow!

She was raised by her father's hand
Japanese tradition was the master plan
She didn't agree, ran away from home
Heading for the danger zone

She never knew love could hurt so bad
The reality of life nearly drove her mad
Her playing with fire was a dangerous game
That's when love turned into pain
Oh!

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu
Ow!

She lost her pride and her dignity
For what she thought was life's ecstasy
He said I'll never leave but now he's gone
He left her all alone with a baby son

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu
Remember

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Remember
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu (Tokyo wa, 'kyo wa)

Tokyo wa
Kodo wa
Nai e desu
Ooh yeah
Tokyo wa
Notoe ko wa
Nai e desu (Tokyo wa, 'kyo wa)
