Let me tell you 'bout a girl i knew

A rollin' stone

The sort of girl you give your lifetime to

But you never own



Suki's missing -- she's not at home

Suki's missing -- address unknown



On the paper there were fifteen words

Saying suki's gone

A scribbled line to whom it may concern

Saying nothing's wrong



Suki's missing -- told a lie or two

Suki's missing -- didn't leave a clue



Missing missing missing



I call on missing persons

Leave your number you'll be called

Help me operator 'cos i'm going up the wall

I've tried every method to get suki back again

Now i'm telling a computer

'bout the shape that i'm in

I know it's looking bad 'cos there hasn't been

Back a word

So i'm asking on the street

"you seen a chinese girl?"

There's a poster on the box

Upon the police station wall

There's a photo there of suki

She was with me i recall



Suki's missing -- missing



I got to get that chinese girl
