Oh the other day in Chinatown
A place you all know well
I was taking in the action all around
With things to buy and sell
There was taxis looking for someone
I was studying the walkmans in a special
When I saw her walking by
And I'd love the things she wore
So there and then up to her I did fly
We could have a good talk
I'd love to just take you for
Just yourself and meself, ah go on!
She says "I come from China"
I says "I'm from Ireland"
And "Isn't this a fine small world"
And we'd been walking hand in hand
We could have a good talk
I'd love to just give you one
Just a little one, ah go on!
Oh well, she brought me back to
Just to drink a cup of tea
She brought me in and made me
It was a tiny room she lived
But they were out and we were all alone
We could have a good talk
I suppose we could get nice and toasty
Watch some TV, see what happens,
Well, I woke up on the sidewalk
There was no one there at all
She must have gone with Luka left behind
She couldn't hear me call
So the whole affair was only in me mind
We could have a good talk
