On the Ginza Strip the 100th building on the 100th floor

Dream team life enhancing behind the 100th door

Sukiyaki carried me to this place

Have to harikari if ever I lose face

Western girls at Lexington Queen

Are the prettiest girls I've ever seen

I'd gladly part with hard-earned yen

Just so I could be with them

Chain smoking at the Singalong Bar

Wedged into the subway car

Heat up some more rice wine

Somebody just jumped on the line

Robots have run amok on the factory floor

Been 20 years at Sony, and I can see 20 more

Hi-tech sex, wireless sets, samurai

Western ways, baseball games, apple pie

Though some will say we imitate

Produce the goods at a cheaper rate

Faster too, reduced in size

Our ingenuity's realised

I had to grab a massage cab

I left my briefcase at the lab

Godzilla ate the bullet train now

Won't see Kyoto ever again now

Papa jumped the gun back in '41

Following the flag of the rising sun

When Tojo did the mojo, he was downed in flame

U.S. destroyer and kamikaze plane

The West don't learn from history

Doomed to repeat it endlessly

We put the past onto Fuji

And we erase it totally, yeah

Soon we'll be known as Great Japan

Just like they do in Great Britain

Spelt microchip and solid state

The things that made this country great, now

Sony
