lyrics

I went to Heart Beats Bar
I didn't get very far
It just led to another bar brawl
I had to throw the sailors against the wall
Went to the tattoo parlour
Got a job at the harbour
Was in a motorcycle race
It was just a chicken chase

I'm fighting here out on the street
Trying to make ends meet
I keep training in the park
Late and after dark
I will carry on with my quest
It's only for the best

Only something can get me closer
I won't stop the fight until it's over

Bikers and boozers
Slot house winners and losers
Sailors and drug abusers
I've asked everyone in the city
I don't wanna retreat into self pity
Bars and travel agencies
Hotels with no vacancies
Arcades and restaurants
The rumours get around
Those men I still haven't found

And that letter came through the mail
It let on to a further tale
Sent by a man named Yuanda Zhu
And so he gave me a bigger clue
At warehouse no. 8
It must have been my fate

There I met Master Chen
He told me more about The Chi You Men
It seems Lan Di has left for Hong Kong
I thought about it for so so long

This is my destiny
Not just a fantasy
I shall take my quest
The heavens know this is for the best
How can I make it better?
I shall have my vendetta
