Ain't no sensei when he's gone
I drink saki all the day
Ain't no sensei when he's gone
And he knows not to be long
Just in case I go astray

Wander round when he is gone
You know how the mice will play
Ain't no sensei when he's gone
And this house is full of gnomes
When the master goes away

Kudo, kudo, kudo, kudo
Kudo, kudo, kudo, kudo
Kudo, kudo, kudo, kudo
He shouldn't leave this young thing alone
Ain't no sensei when he's gone

Wonder now where he is gone
Where are you my sen sen sei
Ain't no sensei when he's gone
But his saki's always warm
When he comes back home to stay
