lyrics

Geisha Girl

I've got a friend who was at wit's end
He tried love but his heart broke down
Fearing the worst his response at first
Was to call on the geisha girl
Don't even know where it's coming from
Feeling things that he can't define
Still, standing there fully unaware
In the trance of the geisha girl
Fell in love with the geisha girl

She's the only girl who brings joy when she speaks to you
Nothing in the would could mean more than she means to you
Right where you belong when she bends over back for you
From this moment on this is where it is at for you

How can he help how his feelings felt?
She had grace and a cultured mind
Dressed to impress like an Emperess
Perfect taste and a face sublime
Drink, dance, sing she was born and raised to entertain
Try as he might he just couldn't fight
His desire for the geisha girl
Fell in love with the geisha girl

She's the only girl who brings joy when she speaks to you
Nothing in the would could mean more than she means to you
Right where you belong when she bends over back for you
From this moment on this is where it is at for you

Oh...and you can't stand the thought it
Knowing you're just a small part of it
No matter how you may care for her....
Tomorrow it's somebody new
That's what she's trained to do
Did you think it was only for you?
