stephen sondheim – welcome to kanagawa كلمات اغاني
[madam, spoken]
hurry up, girls, for heaven’s sakes! the americans will have already landed!
(sung)
i own a small commercial venture
with a modest clientele
in kanagawa
[girls]
i think i see one over there behind the trees!
[madam]
sh!
it’s been my family’s for centuries
and doing very well
for kanagawa
[girls]
i hear they’re covered all with hair, like some disease
[madam, spoken]
sh!
[fourth girl]
except their knees
[madam]
the arrival of these giants
out of the blue
bringing panic to my clients
alters my view
with so many of them fleeing
conferring, decreeing
i find myself agreeing
with the ancient haiku:
[reciter]
the nest-building bird
seeking the tree without twigs
looks for new forests
[madam, spoken]
exactly
(as a “forest” forms on the stage, she and the girls search for americans.)
(sung)
welcome to kanagawa
[girls]
welcome to kanagawa!
[madam]
no!
welcome to kanagawa
[girls]
oh
welcome to kanagawa
[madam]
so
with all my flowers disappearing
in alarm
i’ve been reduced to commandeering
from the farm
but with appropriate veneering
even green wood has its charm
[girls]
yo-ho!
yo-ho!
[madam]
yo-ho!
(she hands out p-rnographic fans to the girls and points to each in turn.)
that you’ll have to bend for
can you see why?
[first girl]
yo-ho!
[madam]
that you need a friend for
still, you might try
[second girl]
yo-ho!
[madam]
that you do through the kimono
not very much
[third girl]
yo-ho!
[madam]
that you use glue, then you
no, no, no, no
those you don’t touch!
[all]
welcome to kanagawa
music and food for twenty yen
music and food
[madam]
and maybe then
[all]
welcome!
welcome to kanagawa!
music and food and company!
music and food
[madam]
and for a fee
[all]
welcome!
[madam]
when a country is in trouble
choices are few
and apart from charging double
what can you do?
with my clients off defending
and strangers descending
i find myself depending
on the ancient haiku:
[reciter]
the bird from the sea
not knowing pine from bamboo
roosts on anything
[madam]
exactly
[girls]
welcome to kanagawa!
[madam]
glow!
[girls]
welcome to kanagawa!
[madam]
low!
[girls]
welcome to kanagawa!
[madam]
grow!
[girls]
welcome to kanagawa!
[madam]
go!
(they all move into the “forest.”)
[madam]
yo-ho!
yo-ho!
