Tighten Up Japanese Gentlemen Stand Up Please by Yellow Magic Orchestra Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1980

Hi, everybody!
We are YMO
From Tokyo, Japan
We don't sight see, we dance!
You understand?
We are the number one dance band in Tokyo. (aha!)

Now, 'Tighten Up' was very popular in Houston, Texas with Archie Bell & the Drells
Now, we are the number one! I think so, ha ha. (yeah!)

Tighten up, Takahashi!
酒飲め, Sakamoto!
Hurry up with the bass, papa-san!

Oh yeah, uh huh, here we go!
Come on, everybody
You and me
Sock it to me, Sakamoto
Oi! Oi!

[Refrain]
Japanese gentlemen, stand up please
Do the tighten up
Tighten up
Oh, tighten up
[Bridge (Spoken)]
Here we go again!

[Refrain]
Japanese gentlemen, stand up please
Do the tighten up
Tighten up
Oh, tighten up
