      The Japanese were never actually genuinely expecting their troops in Washington, this song is just propaganda.
      Their real goal was to hopefully force the Americans fighting in both sides and hopefully get them to negotiate a favourable term for the Japanese, they never even expected to land in mainland US.
      Obviously, as it turned out, that was also pretty under estimating the Americans as well.

      This is strictly for morale, not even propaganda. When I went through officer training for the USAF (yeah, air force, I wasnt even some 11B army guy), we'd march and sing a Jodie similar to this song.
      It went something like "I can march to Beijing. I can march to Moscow" etc. I did not expect people to take the Japanese version so literally, as even the Japanese Generals at the time knew they could not invade US, and would lose in a prolong war. People forget they just wanted to give us a painful 6 months to hopefully get us out of the war
