4AM Osaka

from Somnambulista by BRAZZAVILLE

/

about

This song is about a weekend I spent with the great violinist and composer, Eyvind Kang when we were on tour together with Beck. We had an adventure that began in the clubs of Osaka, continued through hot springs near old samurai training grounds and ended up in Kyoto.

lyrics

4 a.m. Osaka
My brain’s a mess
Octopus balls and sauce
End of the century stress

Sleeping on the floor
Of a record store
The girl that I love’s at home
Facing the world alone

Eyvind Kang
Eyvind Kang
Eyvind Kang
Waltzing with Eyvind Kang

Sea cucumber stew
And a pot of tea
Taiwanese cigarettes
Commuters all fast asleep
