Japanese Exchange Student Lyrics - Of Men And Angels - The Rocket Summer

I might as well be a Japanese exchange student 

'Cause people wouldn't know me right when I show up 

But then the thrill wears off and then I'm alone 

Until Beyonce rolls through town and I think 

That I can call and score a ticket when I can't 

'Cause I don't know her like you don't know me 

It's a lonely world when it's all that you see 

It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me 

This gets lonely 

I might as well be a Japanese exchange student 

'Cause people wouldn't know me right when I show up 

But then the thrill wears off and then I'm alone 

Until Paul McCartney rolls through town 

And I think that I can get in on the guest list, when I can't 

'Cause I don't know him like you don't know me 

It's a lonely thing when it's all that you see 

It doesn't matter if I got a good heart in me 

This gets lonely 

Last year I got the cover, my phone wouldn't stop ringing and ringing 

They called in on my mother and that is saying something 

Well, maybe it's been quiet, my phone just picks up dust 

'Cause it's all about who you know and not about if you really know anyone 

So, hey, be nice to the Japanese exchange students 

'Cause people wouldn't know them right when they show up 

And they have found yourself in a similar place 

Where you found you looked around and just saw loads of empty space 

And you were thinking how 

You don't know them like they don't know you 

It's a lonely feeling after all that you do 

Got a good heart, got a good soul, what must I do to prove it anymore 

I got friends in high and low places and it's all the same to me 

I love the Japanese, I love the Japanese 

Those from Japan and overseas 

I love the Japanese, do you love the Japanese? 

Those from Japan and overseas 

Those from Japan and overseas like me
