Each morning, a missionary advertises with 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 want to 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 automobile (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, Darling?) Uncivilized pictures that the newsreel takes of me So bongo, bongo, bongo, he don’t want to 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 [bad word] When they’ve got two weeks vacation, they hurry to vacation ground (What do they do, Darling?) They swim and they fish, but that’s what I do all year round So bongo, bongo, bongo, I don’t want to 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 an atom bomb, So I think I’ll stay where I ahm Civilization, I’ll stay right here!
