Possible album titles?

My dad just got back from a trip to Japan (visiting some distant relatives, plus sightseeing). Here's an e-mail he sent around a few days ago.


Went into Tokyo today and encountered these delightful examples of their use of our language....

The mall at the local train station is called BEANS.

We saw a large video screen promoting the rock group BUMP OF CHICKEN.

Walked past an eyeglass store called POKER FACE.

My very favorite was a womans sweatshirt with the slogan on the back LET YOU BECOME LEAKING FOLIAGE -- No idea what they had in mind.
