Out to Suzhou

We must be off, we must go
On the big plane out to Suzhou.
The busy, bustling streets so far.
The bicycle, bus, scooter and car
All meet at the count-down light.
You never heard such sound or saw such sight.
We must be off, we must go
Out on the big plane to Suzhou
To sit in the Zhazak eating rice and bread
A fascinating place when all is done and said.
Sitting in the tea house sampling the ware
Spend afternoon sipping brews without a care.
We must be off, we must go
On the big plane out to Suzhou.
