You can make huge coins materialize
Shoot fireballs out of your hand
You can grow ten times your normal size
That's what it's like in Japan

There are big green pipes sticking out of the ground
Bricks floating in the air
There are mean little turtles walking all around
That's what it's like when you're there

When you get to Japan
You must try to find
And save the princess fair
But when you get past
The big green lizard
She's hardly ever there

You can jump like nobody's business
Live longer than anyone can
You don't have to wonder or say, "What is this?"
'Cause that's what it's like in Japan
I've totally been there
That's what it's like in Japan
That's what it's like when you go to Japan

(I think).
