Lyrics
Nakkamichi Boogie
I make good pay. Three bowls of rice. Turn on my transistor in the paddy fields and night and Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie tonight. I climb into my rickshaw and drive downtown. Walk into McDonald's [choke] my Egg McMuffin down then. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie tonight. Rockin resistors. Rockin IC's. Asia is rockin'. With US industry. I finally get to work. Building number nine. Sit down at my bench on the 501 line. Set my ‘scilloscope and my VOM too. Ready for another day and you know what I do. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie tonight. Rockin resistors. Rockin IC's. Asia is rockin'. With US industry. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie. Rock Rock Nakkamichi Boogie tonight.
