Late last night
I got an SOS
The fairytale girl's
In deep 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 throwing out a life line
And I'm doing it
For old time's sake
Though I know you're gonna
Break my heart one more time
Late last night
I got an SOS
The fairytale girl's
In deep 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 trippin'
On some Chinese junk
Her world is spinning
And her hope has sunk
So I close my eyes
And I'm 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
