It's about time I took my leave of this place That woman's bringing me down and I'm sick of her face Plane ticket in my pocket, a suitcase in my hand I made up my mind I'm going back to Japan Don't call the NYPD, don't call the FBI Just tell everyone I know that I'm saying goodbye Left my village apartment and quit my rock'n'roll band I made up my mind I'm going back to Japan Taiwan, Hong Kong maybe Tibet There's so many places I ain't been yet New York City ain't never been kind I gotta get out before I lose my mind I left my heart in the Tokyo lights I never met an asian girl I didn't like I gotta get back as soon as I can Get out of my way I'm going back to Japan
