MITAKA
from WELCOME BACK by powerbleeder
lyrics
Home, I’m calling Yokohama home
The city lights draw out the lonesome
Who’s gonna be your little jou-san
Home, I’m calling Mitaka home
A little beer and yaki-gyoza
We’re gonna have a little party
Alfred squats at a ramen shop
Just look at that gorgeous hair
He’s all dressed and ready
and mostly unaware
He trails off like a drunk bob ross
in a dialogue with his hands
He’s all dressed and ready
But no one understands
Home, I’m calling Setagaya home
the sweetest air outside the pan-ya
You got a date tonight in San-cha
Home, it’s getting late you should go home
It’s 20 minutes till the train stops
But you’ll never make it, have a nice walk
Strutting down the sidewalk
like a runway with a stare
He’s all dressed and ready
but he isn’t even there
He clops along like a voodoo doll
with a clothespin in his chest
He’s all dressed and ready
You’re gonna be impressed
The city lights draw out the lonesome
Who’s gonna be your little jou-san
Home, I’m calling Mitaka home
A little beer and yaki-gyoza
We’re gonna have a little party
Alfred squats at a ramen shop
Just look at that gorgeous hair
He’s all dressed and ready
and mostly unaware
He trails off like a drunk bob ross
in a dialogue with his hands
He’s all dressed and ready
But no one understands
Home, I’m calling Setagaya home
the sweetest air outside the pan-ya
You got a date tonight in San-cha
Home, it’s getting late you should go home
It’s 20 minutes till the train stops
But you’ll never make it, have a nice walk
Strutting down the sidewalk
like a runway with a stare
He’s all dressed and ready
but he isn’t even there
He clops along like a voodoo doll
with a clothespin in his chest
He’s all dressed and ready
You’re gonna be impressed

Great stuff. Been stuck in my head all week. Probably one of the best groups on this label. Sad to see ‘em go.
