Let's move away together, go interplanetary
Maybe in Chinese weather, where it's sanitary
I'll go out trawler fishing, yeah, we'll have tuna steak
I'm on a special mission, for us to have a breakWe'll climb the corporate buildings, spray-paint the outside walls
You bet that they'll be yielding, when the castle falls
We'll swim beneath the ocean, near the coral reef
I have a certain notion, that it will not be briefWe're going to Shanghai to watch the red sky
We're moving to Shanghai, goodbye, goodbye
We're going to Shanghai, so don't you cry
We're moving to ShanghaiLooks like we might have made it, put on your silkworm dress
You look so beautiful and I look such a mess
Across the city's landscape, the sun burns crimson red
Maybe the moon will wait, before we go to bedWe're going to Shanghai to watch the red sky
We're moving to Shanghai, goodbye, goodbye
We're going to Shanghai, so don't you cry
We're moving to ShanghaiMaybe, we'll have a fresh new start
I'll learn the martial arts
We'll have our own rickshaw cart
We're moving to Shanghai
