Ed Harcourt - Shanghai Lyrics
Let's move away together, go interplanetaryMaybe in Chinese weather, where it's sanitaryI'll go out trawler fishing, yeah we'll have tuna steakI'm on a special mission, for us to have a breakWe'll climb the corporate buildingsSpray-paint the outside wallsYou bet that they'll be yieldingWhen the castle fallsWe'll swim beneath the oceanNear the coral reef I have a certain notionThat it will not be briefWe're going to ShanghaiTo watch the red skyWe're moving to ShanghaiGoodbye, goodbyeWe're going to ShanghaiSo don't you cryWe're moving to ShanghaiLooks like we might have made itPut on your silkworm dressYou look so beautiful and I look such a messAcross the city's landscape, the sun burns crimson redMaybe the moon will wait, before we go to bedWe're going to ShanghaiTo watch the red skyWe're moving to ShanghaiGoodbye, goodbyeWe're going to ShanghaiSo don't you cryWe're moving to ShanghaiMaybe, maybe we'll have a fresh new startI'll learn the martial artsWe'll have our own rickshaw cartWe're moving to Shanghai
