Madam Butterfly (Ocean Mix) - Malcolm McLaren Written by:Giacomo Puccini Back in Nagasaki I got married to cho cho San
That was her name in those days
And I was her man
I'm going back to visit her
She got a problem
She got a little cho cho
Cho cho San was her name
And this is her tale of woe
Take it away cho cho
Today's the day when I see clear A tiny thread of smoke appears Where blue skies fall upon the ocean
And shake this staid emotion All the while I sing this song I see a dot on the horizon
Growing bigger every second Gleaming white in my direction
Who on earth can it be Coming up the path for me What on earth will he say Shall I run to him or run away
Freaking out he's come to get me My feet are stuck but just won't let me Run to him do I dare Madam butterfly don't blow it Calling butterfly madam butterfly
That's the name he used to give me He's my man till the day I die Oh sweet butterfly so sweet butterfly
She's waiting
He'll be back I have faith in this love track
Pinkerton's the name
Lieutenant colonel Pinkerton sir
U S navy
I'm a bounder
I married a Yankee girl
But I went back to visit old Japan
Where there she was cho cho San
Gotta have something to believe in My white honkey I do miss him Someday soon he'll come around Just to stop my nervous breakdown Call me fool call me stupid Bend my arrow kill this cupid Say it with me He'll be back I have faith in this love track Calling butterfly madam butterfly
That's the name he used to give me He's my man till the day I die Oh sweet butterfly so sweet butterfly
She's waiting He'll be back I have faith
Cho cho
My little wife
My sweet butterfly
That's the name I'll give her
When I return
Little sweet sweet butterfly I hear him crowing faintly
He thinks I'm just still sweet sixteen I guess I'll tease him gently
Calling madam butterfly His angel plucked right from the sky Hide my baby in mystic places I feel the fear that I might die Right in his arms and his embraces Softly kissing my eyelashes Got no right no right to doubt it Ain't no doubt no doubt about it Call me fool call me stupid Bend this arrow kill this cupid I have faith I'll always pray My white honkey's here to stay
Calling butterfly madam butterfly Butterfly butterfly have no fear I'll be back to wipe your tears Oh sweet butterfly so sweet butterfly
