o tokyo you`re so fab

O Tokyo, get over yourself!
you`re so fab!
the hyperdigital precision of a robotic Venusian zone probe

you make New York look like
a chuffing steam engine
you make Philly look
positively quaint and obsolete

O Tokyo, get over yourself!
you`re so fab!

you make Seoul look like
a demure Asian girl, traditional, submissive --
she doesn`t quite yet realize how utterly cool
she is

O Tokyo, you`re so fab!
Nyuu Yooku yori ooki na ringo!
Ambitious Japan! challenging the change!
challenging the future to a deathless match
of sumo

O Tokyo, get over yourself!
you make the twentieth century look like
like so twenty seconds ago
