Always a classic.

You're evil. Now I'm finding myself reading the whole site.

Any mention of "gaijin" reminds me of the very excellent Nick Lowe and a little ditty he composed while touring Japan:

"Touchdown Narita five GMT
But it's nine hours later than that for me
Through immigration we did crawl
I'm a giant of a man in the customs hall
Osaka-Supporu that's a two hour hop
Just time to grab a snack in the Skysnak shop
You've only got to utter one seema-seng
That's gonna set you back about a thousand yen
But me I'm up here having nothing but fun
I'm a gai-gin man in the land o' the rising sun

Well a nation's waiting on a vacant throne
Hirohito's heart beat rhythm way on down
On the streets of the Ginza all they know
Is the crown prince flew back to Tokyo
But me I'm up here having nothing but fun
I'm a gai-gin man in the land o' the rising sun

I'm a gai-gin gai-gin gai-gin gai-gin man
Everybody kow-tow to me when we meet
While the kids cat-call at me on the street
They say there goes a gai-gin man, gai-gin man

I'm a gai-gin
Can't you tell?
Gai-gin man"
