Lyrics
BIG BELLS AND BONGO DRUMMERS
MY HEAD'S A GREAT BIG BELL THAT KEEPS ON RINGING
MY HEART'S A BONGO DRUMMER GONE INSANE
I'VE SEEN DOCTORS, EVEN LICENSED PLUMBERS,
THEY COULDN'T STOP THE BELLS AND THE BONGO DRUMMERS
THEY COULDN'T STOP THE DING DONG,
BING BONG IN MY BRAIN.
I TAKE LONG WALKS TO SEE IF I CAN LOSE THEM
THE BELLS AND BONGOS STICK TO ME LIKE GLUE
GOING DOWN THE STREET THEY WON'T KEEP QUIET
THE BELLS AND BONGO DRUMS CAN IGNITE A RIOT
I'M STARTING TO SUSPECT IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU
YOU TOUCH MY HAND AND I'M A DIXIELAND BAND
AND SHOULD WE KISS WHAT WOULD I BE?
I'D BE THE PHILHARMONIC SYMPHONY!
IF I COULD RING A GREAT BIG BELL IN YOUR HEAD
AND WAKE THE BONGO DRUMMER IN YOUR HEART
THEN IT SHOULDN'T TAKE MUCH REALIZING
TO KNOW THAT WE COULD DO SOME FANCY HARMONIZING
SOME SOULFUL SALSA THAT WOULD ECHO TO THE SKY
BIG BELLS AND BONGO DRUMMERS, YOU AND I.
