Lyrics Civilization (Bongo, Bongo, Bongo) - The Andrews Sisters
Each
morning,
a
missionary
advertises
neon
sign
He
tells
the
native
population
that
civilization
is
fine
And
three
educated
savages
holler
from
a
bamboo
tree
That
civilization
is
a
thing
for
me
to
see
So
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
him,
i'll
stay
right
here
I
looked
through
a
magazine
the
missionary's
wife
concealed
(magazine?
what
happens?)
I
see
how
people
who
are
civilized
bung
you
with
automobiles
(you
know
you
can
get
hurt
that
way
Daniel?)
At
the
movies
they
have
got
to
pay
many
coconuts
to
see
(what
do
they
see,
Danny?)
Uncivilized
pictures
that
the
newsreel
takes
of
me
So
bongo,
bongo,
bongo,
he
don't
wanna
leave
the
congo,
oh
no
no
no
no
no
Bingo,
bangle,
bungle,
he's
so
happy
in
the
jungle,
he
refuse
to
go
Don't
want
no
penthouse,
bathtub,
streetcars,
taxis,
noise
in
my
ear
So,
no
matter
how
they
coax
him,
i'll
stay
right
here
They
hurry
like
savages
to
get
aboard
an
iron
train
And
though
it's
smokey
and
it's
crowded,
they're
too
civilized
to
complain
When
they've
got
two
weeks
vacation,
they
hurry
to
vacation
grounds
(what
do
they
do,
Danny?)
They
swim
and
they
fish,
but
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
Bingo,
bangle,
bungle,
I'm
so
happy
in
the
jungle,
I
refuse
to
go
Don't
want
no
jailhouse,
shotgun,
fish-hooks,
golf
clubs,
I
got
my
spears
So,
no
matter
how
they
coax
him,
I'll
stay
right
here
They
have
things
like
the
atom
bomb
So
I
think
I'll
stay
where
I
am
Civilization
I'll
stay
right
here
