Kung Fu
Ash · Intergalactic Sonic 7s (+ Cosmic Debris) CD1
I haven't been the same since my teenage lobotomy
Full on, I moved to Hong Kong
With Bruce Lee's brother and Johnny Wong
I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Tailand
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Last night Jackie Chan came around
I played pool with him and we hung out
Mr. Miagi and the X-men
Called in for a while as well
I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Tailand
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Gary Glitter!
Scooby Doo!
Rock McMurray!
And last but not least
Ladies and gentleman
I give you...
JOHNNY WONG!
Kung Fu do what you do to me
I can't live without my Kung Fu movies
'Shanghai Killers' and 'Deadly Road'
My life was ruined when the Green Dragon closed
Oh I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Tailand
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
I think it's strange
He's friends with Fu Manchu
And he's in love with you
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Tailand
Come on Jackie Chan
Uh uh uh uh uh oh
Kung Fu
Kung Fu stands as a vibrant example of Ash's energetic approach to alternative rock. The Belfast trio, known for their tight songwriting and melodic sensibilities, crafted this track during a prolific period of singles and compilation releases. The song captures the band's signature blend of jangly guitars and driving rhythms, showcasing their ability to deliver concise, impactful rock anthems. While often associated with their broader discography of albums like Free All Angels, this recording highlights the group's versatility in creating standalone tracks that resonate with fans of the genre. The track remains a testament to Ash's enduring influence in the British rock scene, offering listeners a dynamic snapshot of their musical evolution without relying on complex production or extended arrangements.
