Somewhere Near Japan Songtext
von The Beach Boys

Late last night I got an S. O. S.
The fairy tale girl′s in deep in distress
She says I don't know where I am
But it′s near Japan

My engine's all burned out
My crew has all bailed out
I don't know where I am
But it′s somewhere near Japan

And she said, Rescue me
I′m somewhere in the China Sea
I think I'm sinkin′ fast
This call is probably my last
I'm throwin′ out a life line
And I'm doin′ it for old time's sake
Though I know you're gonna break my heart
One more time


Late last night I got an S. O. S.
The fairy tale girl′s in deep in distress
She says I don′t know where I am
But it's near Japan

My engine′s all burned out
My crew has all bailed out
I don't know where I am
But it′s 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 don't you know

And now she′s 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 man's land
Somewhere near Japan
Rescue me
