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
quot;Rescue me quot;
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 quot;thank you dear quot;
I think she sounded quite sincere
And when she turned to go
She said quot;I crave adventure don t you know quot;

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
