I got a pen pal in Japan
I write to her whenever I can
She's a mama and a daughter
Write her more I really ought to
She has a heart big as a tower
She has a quiet inner power
One day we will go watch Kabuki
Me and my Yukie Onuki
She has the most discerning eye
Sometimes I really have to try
To work hard to get her approval
Or risk temporary removal
But she usually forgives
I ask her please live and let live
Yukie Onuki my friend in the East
For her my love has not decreased
Yukie's loved and Yukie's lost
Yukie knows of love's true cost
Yukie's strong and responsible
For her nothing is impossible
Some things I say she won't put up with
Nonetheless her I have fun with
One day I'll fly across the sea
And get to meet Yukie Onuki
We may have a language barrier
But I'd name an aircraft carrier after her
We met through a mutual friend
My mate in jolly old England
I did a little dance of glee
The first time that she messaged me
Yukie Onuki what a name
She should be in the Hall of Fame
