《Civilization (Bongo Bongo Bongo)》歌词

[00:00:07] Each morning a missionary advertise with neon sign

[00:00:14] He tells the native population that civilization is fine

[00:00:19] And three educated savages holler from a bongo tree

[00:00:25] That civilization is a thing for me to see

[00:00:31] So bongo, bongo, bongo I don't want to leave the congo

[00:00:36] Oh no no no no no

[00:00:39] Bingle, bangle, bungle I'm so happy in the jungle I refuse to go

[00:00:44] Don't want no bright lights, false teeth, doorbells, landlords

[00:00:48] I make it clear

[00:00:52] That no matter how they coax him

[00:00:54] I'll stay right here

[00:00:58] I looked through a magazine the missionary's wife concealed

[00:01:05] (Magazine? What happens?)

[00:01:07] I see how people who are civilized bang you with automobiles

[00:01:11] (You know you can get hurt that way Daniel)

[00:01:13] At the movies they have got to pay many coconuts to see

[00:01:17] (What do they see Danny?)

[00:01:19] Uncivilized pictures that the newsreels take of me

[00:01:23] So bongo, bongo, bong he don't want to leave the congo

[00:01:28] Oh no no no no no

[00:01:31] Bingle, bangle, bungle he's so happy in the jungle he refuse to go

[00:01:36] Don't want no penthouse, bathtub, streetcars, taxis

[00:01:41] Noise in my ear

[00:01:43] So no matter how they coax him

[00:01:46] I'll stay right here

[00:01:52] They hurry like savages to get aboard an iron train

[00:01:58] And though it's smoky and crowded they're too civilized to complain

[00:02:04] When they've got two weeks vacation they hurry to vacation grounds

[00:02:10] (What do they do Danny)

[00:02:12] They swim and they fish but that's what I do all year round

[00:02:16] So bongo, bongo, bongo I don't want to leave the congo

[00:02:21] Oh no no no no no

[00:02:24] Bingle, bangle, bungle I'm so happy in the jungle I refuse to go

[00:02:29] Don't want no jailhouse, shotguns, fish hooks, golf clubs

[00:02:34] I've got my spear

[00:02:36] So no matter how they coax him

[00:02:39] I'll stay right here

[00:02:42] They have things like the atom bomb

[00:02:45] So I think I'll stay where I "om"

[00:02:49] Civilization, I'll stay right here
