Lyrics for A Japanese Dream - 12" Remix 1987

I'm going back to the land of the blind Back to the land where the sun never shines I'm going back there and I'm hoping to find Everything just as it was before I left it all behind I slept at nights there hysterically Twisted and turned But I just couldn't get free Opened my eyes But I still couldn't see But I could feel her... China white girl So I get down on the floor Like I am worshipping God Burning like a monkey I get down on the floor Like I am praying to the Lord Burning like a monkey Mmmmmm... That was a Japanese dream alright The sound of the storm And the flickering light And the way that her scent used to fill up the night like... Like her scent used to fill up the night So I get down on the floor Like I am worshipping God Burning like a monkey I get down on the floor Like I am praying to the Lord Burning like a monkey Just look at me now Just look at me this way It looks like I am quite insane It looks like I am trying to eat off my face It looks like I'm going to the land of the blind anyway... Back where the sun never shines Back to the land of the blind Back in a Japanese dream
