Lyrics
Verse 1
You walking around with nothing on
You?d think you?d be arrested for what you?re doing to that thong
Then you stamp your feet, like you?re looking for something else to eat
And you get down and you get it on
Chorus
You?re big, big and strong nothing on
You?re the man to beat the man to see
You?re big, big and strong nothing on
Sumo, Sumo, Sumo Wrestler
Verse 2
You?re hanging out with all the geisha
And all them skinny men, well you know they hate you
Skinny little legs, and their skinny little lives, a little hari-kari is your only advice
Chorus
Bridge
Classic case of beauty and the beast, I wish we were big in Japan
Pass the chopsticks, life?s just a feast, I wish we were big in Japan
Domo-origato Mr. Roboto, I wish we were big in Japan
Pass the sake, Mr. Miagi, I wish we were big in Japan
Sumo, Sumo Wrestler
Verse 3
You?re burning incense to mask your B.O.
Before you slip your hand inside her kimono
It?s quite a life, must have done something right
In your moment of Zen you can see to the end that life?s just one big sushi roll
Chorus
