Vapors, The - Turning Japanese Lyrics






I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote, "I love you," I wrote "Me, too"
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do
Oh, it's in color, your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel and soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them all round my cell
I want the doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down
And turning in and turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them all round my cell
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You got me turning up and turning down
I'm turning in, I'm turning round

I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them all round myself
I want a doctor to take a picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You got me turning up and turning down
I'm turning in, I'm turning round

I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women, no fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger
Everyone

That's why I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so
Think so, think so, think so
Turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so

    Its a song about masturbation, not racism lol

    This was Alternative before Alternative was cool.

  31. D.... B....

    Turning Japanese is a term once used to mean being high.

    D.... B....

    Turning Japanese is also a term for the way your eyes look when you masturbate

  32. J.... D....

    God this song is so racist lmao

    That scene from Malcolm in the middle when Hal finds the beer

  36. L.... M....

    This song was a lot more enjoyable when I was a kid and didn't know what it meant

    L.... M....

    The song is literally about nothing. Fans made up the whole masturbation thing.

    L.... M....

    One Dixie Cup Just For wait what do you mean 😂

    L.... M....

    @Jessica Danielle It's not about jerking off. Fans came up with that, and The Vapors went along with the joke to get fans to shut up when they weren't listening.

    L.... M....

    The song is about teen angst or alienation after a romantic breakup.

  37. e.... ....

    NOW, lot's of Assholes, ( mostly white), will be offended with this song.!...btw, FUCK These Assholes.!!

    e.... ....

    L.... A....

    No boringfrog I mean where is the original and official video to this song?

  42. R.... ....

    I want a doctor to take a picture from inside of you as well.. how could that not mean he wants to get someone pregnant?

  43. N.... T....

    Lupe Fiasco theme song

  44. S.... ....

    Fucking weaboos

  45. R.... P....

    The BEST song I've EVER heard about Jacking Off! 😂😂😂😂

    R.... P....

    It's not about masturbation. This is literally a common fact that fans made up that lie and it's become something blown out of proportion.

    R.... P....

    @One Dixie Cup Just For You I'm sorry but your mistaken. One of the band members said in an interview that it was about "seeking pleasure when no one else is around".

    R.... P....

    @Ricky Parker Ah yes, the interview where they just say "Fuck it" and mess with everyone by acting like the joke is real. That one, yeah? lmfao

  46. S.... G....

    Dis be rayciss.

    aaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

  50. J.... A....

    Let's be Blunt : Turning Japanese is about Wanking ... Think About It!

    J.... A....

    It's not. The band has said that the song is just about nothing. Fans made up the lie that it was about masturbation.

  51. g.... ....

    That's just plain fun.

  52. s.... 2....

    if anyone ever calls you a racist. just tell them, no im not. i have a color tv.

  53. K.... ....

    Who else is watching after their mom told them to look it up?

  54. s.... m....

    And yet another song ya have to couch dance to

  55. j.... ....

    私は日本語を回しています、私は日本語を回していると思います
    本当にそう思う!

  56. L.... E....

    They were written off as a one-hit wonder, but "New Clear Days" was a masterpiece, there wasn't a bad song on it...

    L.... E....

    Yes, and "Jimmie Jones" is also a great song (and was a minor hit.)

  57. p.... ....

    Today this song has become to mean to me about having your eyes swell shut from and allergic reaction to black hair dye.

  58. P.... V....

    The New song on the Kop #Minamino #LFC

  59. 8.... D....

    Look like Sheldon kkkkks

    Weaboos when they learn 2 Japanese words

  62. R.... 9....

    It took a few decades before I really listed to the lyrics

  63. R.... 9....

    Incubus rocks a good version of this tune.

  76. R.... C....

    I always thought it was Dirty Japanese...😬woops

  77. p.... ....

    One correction to the lyrics; it's psyched lone ranger and not cyclone ranger. I had the album and that's what it's shown as.

  78. P.... ....

    My girlfriend.

  79. T.... M....

    "The Best of the Vapors" must contain this song and nothing else.

    T.... M....

    What are you talking about? Their second album is literally only good songs. Nobody pays attention to it because there was no gimmick song like Turning Japanese.

    T.... M....

    @One Dixie Cup Just For You It probably is, I just wish I had heard it.

    T.... M....

    @Trixster Million It's all available online.

  80. E.... ....

    this was in my recommended, YouTube finally got something right.

  81. A.... G....

    It took 40 years, but I'm so proud that we now live in a society where it's possible to literally turn Japanese!

    #Transracialism

    A.... G....

  85. N.... D....

    This will be my New Year's Song 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😋

    My dad told me this song was about jacking off to a picture of a girl. Turning Japanese is when his eyes are squinting as he... arrives.

  99. K.... S....

    The average man in the UK has sex 2-3 times a week. The average man in japan has sex 1-2 times a year. Man, I had no idea I was Japanese.
