Bryan Ferry (born 26 September 1945 in Washington, Tyne and Wear, England) is a British singer-songwriter and musician. Famed for his suave visual and vocal style, he came to public prominence in the 70s as the lead singer of the art rock group Roxy Music. After influencing many later bands with his crooning vocals and fashion sense, he has had a highly successful solo career upon leaving the group in 1984.
Ferry formed Roxy Music with a group of friends and acquaintances, beginning with musician Graham Simpson, in November 1970.

D# My girl Friday she no square
She like lotus blossom in her hair
Be-bop records and something new
Sometimes borrowed but she's never blue A#G#FA#D# Oh no... not Tokyo Joe
Way past midnight - she not home She cut the ice down the Danger Zone Watertight dresses - she don't care A trifle risqu, a tart, no sir... Oh no... sounds like Tokyo Joe

Tokyo Rose on the radio Or Diz'n Bird puttin' on the moan Tappin' our telexes to Tupelo Dear John, doh ra me fah so? Let's go... call for Tokyo Joe
Walkin' tall down the Danger Zone She hokey-kokey till the cows come home Big shot - from the hip - neon cool Say, when you've been around, what's left to do? Don't know? Ask Tokyo Joe
