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 break   We'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 brief   We'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 Shanghai   Looks 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 bed   We'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 Shanghai   Maybe, maybe 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
