paroles de chanson Man Piaba - Harry Belafonte
When
I
was
a
lad
of
three-foot-three
Certain
questions
occurred
to
me,
So
I
asked
me
father
quite
seriously
To
tell
me
the
story
′bout
the
bird
and
bee.
He
stammered
and
he
stuttered
pathetically
And
this
is
what
he
said
to
me.
He
said,
"The
woman
piaba
and
the
man
piaba
And
the
Ton
Ton
call
baka
lemon
grass,
The
lily
root,
gully
root,
belly
root
uhmm,
And
the
famous
grandy
scratch
scratch.
It
was
clear
as
mud
but
it
covered
the
ground
And
the
confusion
made
the
brain
go
'round.
I
went
and
ask
a
good
friend
of
mine,
Known
to
the
world
as
Albert
Einstein.
He
said
"Son,
from
the
beginning
of
time
and
creativity
There
existed
the
force
of
relativity
Pi
r
square
and
a
minus
ten
means
a
routine
only
when
The
solar
system
in
one
light
year
Make
the
Hayden
planetarium
disappear
So
if
Mt
Everest
doesn′t
move
I
am
positive
that
it
will
prove
That
the
woman
piaba
and
the
man
piaba
And
the
Ton
Ton
call
baka
lemon
grass,
The
lily
root,
gully
root,
belly
root
uhmm,
And
the
famous
grandy
scratch
scratch.
It
was
clear
as
mud
but
it
covered
the
ground
And
the
confusion
made
the
brain
go
'round.
I
grabbed
a
boat
and
went
abroad
In
Baden
Baden
asked
Sigmund
Freud
He
said
"Son,
from
your
sad
face
remove
the
grouch
Put
the
body
down
up
on
the
couch
I
can
see
from
your
frustration
a
neurotic
sublimation
Hey
love
and
hate
is
psychosomatic
Your
Rorsach
shows
that
you're
a
peri
pathetic
It
all
started
with
a
broken
sibling
In
the
words
of
the
famous
Rudyard
Kipling
That
the
woman
piaba
and
the
man
piaba
And
the
Ton
Ton
call
baka
lemon
grass,
The
lily
root,
gully
root,
belly
root
uhmm,
And
the
famous
grandy
scratch
scratch.
Well
I
traveled
far
and
I
traveled
wide
And
I
don′t
even
have
me
self
a
bride
All
the
great
men
upon
this
earth
Have
confused
me
since
my
birth
I′ve
been
over
land
and
been
over
sea
Trying
to
find
answer
'bout
the
bird
and
bee
But
now
that
I
am
ninety
three
I
don′t
give
a
darn
you
see
If
the
woman
piaba
and
the
man
piaba
And
the
Ton
Ton
call
baka
lemon
grass,
The
lily
root,
gully
root,
belly
root
uhmm,
And
the
famous
grandy
scratch
scratch
