Late last night I got an S. O. S.
The fairy tale girls in deep in distress
She says I dont know where I am
But its near Japan
My engines all burned out
My crew has all bailed out
I dont know where I am
But its somewhere near Japan
And she said
Rescue me
Im somewhere in the
China Sea
I think Im sinkin fast
This call is probably my last
Im throwin out a life line
And Im doin it for old times sake
Though I know youre gonna break my heart
One more time
Late last night I got an S. O. S.
The fairy tale girls in deep in distress
She says I dont know where I am
But its near Japan
My engines all burned out
My crew has all bailed out
I dont know where I am
But its somewhere near Japan
And she said thank you dear
I think she sounded quite sincere
And when she turned to go
She said I crave adventure dont you know
And now shes driftin on some Chinese junk
Her world is spinning and her hope has sunk
So I close my eyes
And somewhere near Japan
The spinning stopped and the world stood still
I broke her fall and I always will
Strung out in no mans land
Somewhere near Japan
Rescue me
