Turning Japanese (The Vapors cover) Lyrics

I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote "I love you" I love you 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 you over myself
I asked 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 over myself
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
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 psyched
lone-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
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
(think so think so think so)
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

This Is a Rebel Song (Sinead O'Connor cover)

Why Doesn't Anybody Like Me?

I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote "I love you" I love you 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 you over myself 
I asked 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 over myself 
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 
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 psyched 
lone-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 
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 
(think so think so think so) 
Turning Japanese 
I think I'm turning Japanese 
I really think so

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
