China gate, China gate,
China gate, China gate,
Many dreams, and many hearts,
You separate...

Like two arms, open wide.
Some you [bad word] in,
And some must stay outside...

Bowl of rice, bitter tea.
Is this all the good earth has
To offer me?

Will I find, peace of mind
Does my [bad word] love,
Wait behind the China gate?

China gate, China gate, China gate
