| Song lyrics |
|---|
You are eighteen year old girl
Who live in small city of Japan
You heard me on the radio
'Bout one year ago
And you wanted to know
All about me, and my hobbies
My favorite food and my birthday
(chorus)
Why are you so far away from me?
I need help and you're way across the sea
I could never touch you
I think it would be wrong
I've got your letter
You've got my song
They don't make stationary like this
where I'm from
So fragile
So refined
So I smell (so I smell)
And i lick (and I lick)
Your envelope and fall to little pieces every time
I wonder what clothes you wear to school
I wonder how you decorate your room
I wonder how you touch yourself
And curse myself for being across the sea
Chorus x1
At ten I shaved my head and tried to be a monk
I thought the older women would like me if I did
You see ma, I'm a good little boy (good little boy)
It's all your fault, momma It's all your fault
Goddamn, this business is getting lame
I gotta live on an island to find the juice
So you send, Me your love
From all around the world
As if I could live off words and dreams and a million screams
Oh, how I need a hand in mine to feel
Why are you so far away from me
Why are you so far away from me
I could never touch you, i think it would be wrong
I got your letter
You got my song
(i got your letter)
I got your letter, You got my song

Best musical climax in pinkerton, possibly all weezer songs. Though im not very fond of the quiet part before this, i realize its essential to make the climax of the song even better. | | 26-06-2004 02:09 Melinda |

Pretty good song.
I find it odd that he uses broken English at the beginning:
You are eighteen year old girl
Who live in small city in Japan
I agree with Paul about the silence part and I love the part:
So I can live on words and dreams and a million screams | | 26-06-2004 02:10 Melinda |

| "Quiet" part, I meant, not "silence." How could it be silent? Oops. | | 26-06-2004 16:36 laxitivechild12 |

| yeah i was just listening to this song and thinking about the broken english at the beginning and i think the reason why he does that is because that might be how someone form another country (japan) might speak english or that might be how they'd write it down in a letter..just a thought... | | 08-04-2006 19:40 jbeck22 |

To an earlier post asking if this song is a true story:
Ive heard that yes it is, and also that Rivers shares all the royalty checks he gets for this song with the girl in the song. Donno if you should believe the last part, but it probably is true.
My favorite Weezer song, second only to maybe Perfect Situation. Best climax in any song I've heard.
"Oh how I need a hand in mine to feel" - love it |
