New Year's Eve temple bell


New Year's Eve temple Bell - It is rung 108 times on New Year's Eve!

Music of the Week 週刊音楽 Tom Waits

Tom Waits (トム ウェイツ)
Big in Japan

I got the style but not the grace
I got the clothes but not the face
I got the bread but not the butter
I got the wind but not the shutter


But Im big in japan Im big in japan but heh Im big in japan


I got the house but not the deed
I got the horn but not the reed
I got the cards but not the luck
I got the wheel but not the truck


But heh Im big in japan Im big in japan Im big in japan


I got the moon I got the cheese
I got the whole damn nation on its knees
I got the rooster I got the crow
I got the ebb I got the flow


I got the powder but not the gun
I got the dog but not the bun
I got the clouds but not the sky
I got the stripes but not the tie


But heh Im big in japan Im big in japan Im big in japan


Heh ho they love the way I do it
Heh ho theres really nothing to it

I got the moon I got the cheese

I got the whole damn nation on their knees
I got the rooster I got the crow
I got the ebb I got the flow


I got the sizzle but not the steak
I got the boat but not the lake
I got the sheets but not the bed
I got the jam but not the bread


But heh Im big in japan Im big in japan Im big in japan
Im big in japan, Im big in japan
