King of bongo

Moma was queen of the manbo
Popa was king of the congo
And deep down in the jungle
I started bangin´ my first bongo
Every monkey´d like to be
In my place instead of me
´cause I´m the king of bongo
The king of bongo bong
I went to the big town
where there is a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Looking for a bigger crown
So I played my bonbo
For the people of big city
But they don´t go crazy
When I´m banging my boogie
Cause people like disco
And people like house
That´s why they don´t applause
When I´m bangin´ on my bongo
They say that I´m a clown
Make too much dirty sound
They say there is no crown
For little monkey in this town
No body like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy
When I´m bangin on my boogie
But I don´t like no disco
And I don´t like the house
´cause I´m born to rock
I´m born to pogo
When I´m bangin´ on my bongo
All that swing belong to me
I´m so happy there´s nobody
In my place instead of me
I´m a king without a crown
Hangin´ loose in the big town
And I´m born to rock
I´m born to pogo!
Popa was king of the congo
And deep down in the jungle
I started bangin´ my first bongo
Every monkey´d like to be
In my place instead of me
´cause I´m the king of bongo
The king of bongo bong
I went to the big town
where there is a lot of sound
From the jungle to the city
Looking for a bigger crown
So I played my bonbo
For the people of big city
But they don´t go crazy
When I´m banging my boogie
Cause people like disco
And people like house
That´s why they don´t applause
When I´m bangin´ on my bongo
They say that I´m a clown
Make too much dirty sound
They say there is no crown
For little monkey in this town
No body like to be
In my place instead of me
Cause nobody go crazy
When I´m bangin on my boogie
But I don´t like no disco
And I don´t like the house
´cause I´m born to rock
I´m born to pogo
When I´m bangin´ on my bongo
All that swing belong to me
I´m so happy there´s nobody
In my place instead of me
I´m a king without a crown
Hangin´ loose in the big town
And I´m born to rock
I´m born to pogo!
