Immigrant Song ''lyrics''

[Brownreg <Brownreg@xxxxxxx>]

With all the recent lyric discussion, I thought this might be good for a laugh
for those who haven't seen it. In the early '80s, Atlantic reissued the
"Immigrant Song'' single in Japan. At the time it was the only place to get  a
clean copy of "Hey, Hey, What Can I Do?''

So I got it home and inside was the Immigrant Song lyrics, in English and in
Japanese. God only knows what they say in Japanese, but the English
translation is a hoot. I couldn't believe an official single had this bad a
transcription. This is exactly as it appears on the sleeve:

IMMIGRANT SONG
 
Ah..... Ah......
Come from the land of the ice and snow
>From the midnight sun
Where the hotsprings flow
Comin' of the cold
Drive our ships to new lands
Fightin' the haul, singin' and cryin'
I am coming
But now you know
Always seeking, pushing on
I wanna go where there's a rest and show
Ah......ah.......
I come from the land of the ice and snow
>From the midnight sun
Where the hotsprings flow
Sometimes feel so green
Whisper tales of storms
Howling come the tides of warm
We are your overload
Always seeking, pushing on
I wanna go where there's a rest and show
So now you better stop
Reap in all your ruin
Peace and just get with it
Disband all you're losin'
