Lyrics

1.The traveler wants to see the city as it is
2.The ways of its day-to-day lives
3.A hidden gem, a nice surprise, priceless value4.
5.Well I think you’ve all taken time
6.To check the latest PR online, it has its moments
7.Plenty of touristy east-side locales
8.But the crowds get big, move slow
9.So go on to the western side
10.To see where we artists spend our time; I’ve got an idea
11.Coffee from this stellar convenience store with a 7 on the sign12.
13.The connoisseur takes raw egg on rice, olive oil,
14.Oyster soy sauce
15.We’re much more than our cars and bikes
16.Musical instruments made with care; jazz is the king here
17.Jazzmen are moving to some other sound
18.To reveal the Tokyo feel
19.This swing you’ve been hearing20.

21.By all means buy and take home sugar from the north
22.Salt from the south
23.Have you noticed the cat is back
24.So many of us we live with cats; to say that we’re not
25.Pious is more than a bit of a stretch
26.‘Cause the cat has Buddha’s face27.
28.We’re good at sports like baseball and boxing,
29.Skateboarding, yet play is banned everywhere
30.Big-wigs get it all wrong31.
32.I’ll recommend a souvenir
33.That gives you a little taste of here, the modal jazz feel
34.Get all decked out, give a toast, spread the love,
35.At the jellyfish, get stunned
