China Boys

(album: In A Place Like This - 1981)

Ten billion people living in one room
I hear them singing a simple tune
I hear them calling
I'm after you
I want your trousers
I want your shoes
Roll out red carpets
Here come the china boys
Roll out red carpets
Here come the china boys

Ten billion people knocking on your door
I want to stay here
Sleep on the floor
I hear them laughing
I know where you are
I don't want your TV
I want your car
Roll out red carpets
Here come the china boys
Roll out red carpets
Here come the china boys

Ten billion people across the sea
Ten billion people like you and me
I see them smiling
They think it's fun
They've got some rowboats
They've got some guns
Roll out red carpets
Where are the china boys
Roll out red carpets
Here come the china boys
