In the dojo now



A martial art from the Rising Sun
Before you do it, it sounds like fun
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now

Now you remember what the chairman said
Just some suburi on a fictitious head
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now

You’ll be the hero of the shiai-jo
If only you could hit some do
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now

Polite bows before the “hajime!”
When your true weakness shows there’s just one way
You're in the shiai-jo now
Oh, oh, you're in the shiai-jo now

Men ippon scored in only one go
It hurts a lot when you are toe on toe
If you want to survive you better practice do
You're in the shai-jo now
Oh, oh, you're in the shiai-jo now

Kiai ring out in the dead of night
The sensei calls (stand up and fight)
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now

You've got your training schedule
Be it dark or light
You practice footwork
But it don't seem right
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now

After 1000 haya-suburi there’s only sweat I see
Are kata illusion or reality?
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now
You're in the dojo now
Oh, oh, you're in the dojo now

Tehehe.

Humidity is rising - Barometer's getting low
According to all sources, Kendo Linz is the place to go
Cause on mondays, amongst other days
Just about half to ten
On mondays, in jigeiko
It's gonna start raining men.

It's Raining Men! Hallelujah! - It's Raining Men! Amen!
I'm gonna stay in, to practice hard and get
An absolutely perfect cut!
It's Raining Men! Hallelujah!
It's Raining Men! Every Specimen!
Hard, fast, correct and keen
Rough and tough and strong and mean

Risin up
again in dojo
do my time take my chances
go the right distance still on my feet
just a kendoka and his will to survive
so many times the ippons are too fast
kendokas trade passion for glory
don't lose your ippons on the dreams of the past
you must fight just to keep them alive

It's the passion for kendo
its the cream of the fight
risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he´s watching us all with the eye of the kendoka

men to men
out in the heat
hanging tough
stayin hungry
the stack the odds still we take to the street
for the ippon with the skill to survive...

It's the passion for kendo
its the cream of the fight
risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he's watching us all with the eye of the kendoka

Risin up
straight to the top
had the guts got the glory
goin right distance now I'm not gonna stop
just a kendoka and his will to score

It's the passion for kendo
its the cream of the fight
risin up to the challenge of our rivals
and the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
and he's watching us all with the eye of the kendoka

The passion for kendo......
The passion for kendo......
The passion for kendo......
