louis prima - civilization (bongo bongo bongo) lyrics

Loading...

bongo, bongo, bongo, i don’t wanna leave the congo
oh no no no no no
no no no no no!
bingo, bangle, bungle, i’m so happy in the jungle and
i’ll tell you
so you will know

each morning, a missionary advertises neon sign
he tell the native population that civilization is fine
every educated savage is hollerin’ from a bamboo tree
that civilization is a thing for me to see

whoa, bongo, bongo, bongo, i don’t wanna leave the
congo
oh no no no no no
bingo, bangle, bungle, i’m so happy in the jungle, i
refuse to go
don’t want no bright lights, false teeth, doorbells,
landlords
i make it clear
that no matter how they coax me, i’ll stay right here

now, i looked through a magazine the missionary’s wife
concealed
i see the people who are civilized bang you with
automobile
at the movies they have got to pay many coconuts to see
uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me

so, bongo, bongo, bongo, i don’t wanna leave the congo,
oh no no no no no-

they hurry like savages to get aboard an iron train
and though it’s smoky and it’s crowded, they’re too
civilized to complain
when they’ve got two weeks vacation, they hurry to
vacation ground
they swim and they fish, ha, that’s what i do all year
round

so bongo, bongo, bongo, i don’t wanna leave the congo
oh no no no no no
no no no no no!
bingo, bangle, bungle, i’m so happy in the jungle, i
refuse to go
don’t want no bright lights, false teeth, doorbells,
landlords… streetcars, taxis-
we make it clear!

they have things like the atom bomb
so i think i’ll stay where i “ahm”
civilization, no no no no no! i stay right here!
