Yellow Peril - Steely Dan



Hunting in the sea of Japan

Ambrose left a tourist trail behind him

So bold whit his gun in his hand

Of his buzz there was no need to remind him

Tripping over a holy man

Might not hear you don't chose your friends

Ambrose asked for a helping hand

He heaved his chest and pointed west

To where the river ends



With Josie back home on his mind

Brushing of the fruitflies of the season

Ambrose he was surely struck blind

With the sight that defies human reason

On an island of gleaming rocks

Jutting up from the blue lagoon

A ceremonial musicbox

From it flows a bright new merm'

That made our hero swoon



A finer

Miner from China

A finer

Miner from China



The world when the traveler returned

As you know played out it's bloody romances

But Ambrose he knew what he'd learned

With his bride in hand he took his chances

Soon the sound that delights the ear

Blended in with the army's roar

When the warrior is strained to hear

This new bebop, the shooting stopped

Their guns were garded for



[Chorus]
