Japanese Sandman Lyrics — A Day in Hollywood / A Night in the Ukraine

Won't you stretch imagination for the moment and come with me?

Let us hasten to a nation lying over the western sea

Right behind the cherry blossoms here's a sight that will please your eyes

There's a lady with a baby of Japan singing lullabies

Hear her as she cries:



"Here's the Japanese Sandman sneaking on with the dew just an old second hand man

He'll buy your old day from you

he will take every sorrow of the day that is through

and he'll give you tomorrow just to start a life anew

then you'll be a bit older in the dawn when you wake

and you'll be a bit bolder with the new day you make

here's the Japanese Sandman trade him silver for gold

just an old second hand man trading new days for old."
