Paroles et traduction Renzo Arbore - Bongo bongo bongo

Bongo bongo bongo

Un giorno un grande esplorator, là nell'equator
Intorno radunate le tribù, ai negri disse così
Soli, soli che ci fate qua? Molto meglio è la città
Seguitemi su, ma il vecchio negro disse allor

Oh bongo bongo bongo stare bene solo al Congo
Non mi muovo, no, no
Bingo bango bengo, molte scuse ma non vengo
Io rimango qui

No bono scarpe strette, saponette
Treni e tassì
Ma con questa sveglia al collo
Star bene qui

Ma sempre il grande esplorator ad ognun parlo
Dei quadri futuristi, dello swing la nostra moda spiegò
Soli, soli che ci fate qui? Io vi porterò a Paris
Seguitemi su, ma il vecchio negro disse ancor

Oh bongo bongo bongo stare bene solo al Congo
Non mi muovo, no, no
Bingo bango bengo, molte scuse ma non vengo
Io rimango qui

No bono radio e cine, signorine
Magre così
Molto meglio anello al naso
Ma stare qui

Bongo bongo bongo stare bene solo al Congo
Non mi muovo, no, no
Bingo bango bengo, molte scuse ma non vengo
Io rimango qui

No bono scarpe strette, saponette
Treni e tassì
Ma con questa sveglia al collo
Star bene qui

Ma con questa sveglia al collo, star bene qui
Ma con questa sveglia al collo, star bene qui

Bongo bongo bongo

One day a great explorer, there in the equator
He spoke this to the gathered native tribes
Alone, alone, what are you doing here, it's so much better in the city
Follow me, but the old tribe leader said

Oh bongo bongo bongo it is good to be only in the Congo
I'm not moving, no, no
Bingo bango bengo, many excuses, but I won't go
I'm staying here

Bono no, tight shoes, little soap
Trains and taxis
But with this alarm around my neck
It's good to be here

But still the great explorer spoke to each one
About futuristic paintings, and the swing, he explained our fashion
Alone, alone, what are you doing here, I'll take you to Paris
Follow me, but the old tribe leader says it again

Oh bongo bongo bongo it is good to be only in the Congo
I'm not moving, no, no
Bingo bango bengo, many excuses, but I won't go
I'm staying here

Bono no, radio and cinema, slender ladies
So thin
It's much better a ring on my nose
But it's good to be here

Bongo bongo bongo it is good to be only in the Congo
I'm not moving, no, no
Bingo bango bengo, many excuses, but I won't go
I'm staying here

Bono no, tight shoes, little soap
Trains and taxis
But with this alarm around my neck
It's good to be here

But with this alarm around my neck, it's good to be here
But with this alarm around my neck, it's good to be here
