Hong Kong Garden lyrics

Song information

Artist: Siouxsie And The Banshees
Album: The Scream

Lyrics

Harmful elements in the air
Symbols clashing everywhere
Reaps the fields of rice and reeds
While the population feeds
Junk floats on polluted water
An old custom to sell your daughter
Would you like number 23?
Leave your yens on the counter please
Hong kong garden

Tourists swarm to see your face
Confuscius has a puzzling grace
Disorientated you enter in
Unleashing scent of wild jasmine

Slanted eyes meet a new sunrise
A race of bodies small in size
Chicken chow mein and chop suey
Hong kong garden takeaway
Hong kong garden
