Tumble and Twirl |
I’ve seen the city |
I took the next flight |
For Borneo |
They say it’s pretty |
I like the tee shirts |
In Borneo |
Some wear Bob Marley |
Others in Playboy |
Or Duvalier |
Make the last plane come |
Let me rise through the cloudy above |
With a book on Borneo |
Strangers come and go It’s such a waste of time |
Problems far behind |
Another day |
But even in springtime |
It’s a rich slice of life |
So send me a letter |
I’ll reply with a broken spear |
That dusky mulatto |
In nylons and tattoos |
Hot juice in coke bottles |
We dance in the sand |
Well, they twirl and they tumble |
Yes, they twirl and they tumble |
Well, I’ll twirl and I’ll tumble |
I’ve been to Leon’s |
He’s got nine daughters |
And a stereo |
They say that Leon |
Watches from the tree tops |
In Borneo |
When the road is mud |
Everything stops with a thud |
That’s the way it goes down yonder in Borneo |
Far beneath his mansion |
There’s an open drain |
Sending all the sewage down the hill |
But when the general shows movies |
No one hesitates |
To sneak from the jungle |
They laugh and they mumble |
Enjoying the show |
And that dusky mulatto |
Hot juice in coke bottles |
In Blue Jeans and tattoos |
Well, they twirl and they tumble |
Yes, they twirl and they tumble |
Well, I’ll twirl and I’ll tumble |
I like the free world |
They say it’s pretty |
This time of year |
They tumble and twirl |
They tumble and twirl |
I’ll tumble and twirl |
They twirl and they tumble |
They twirl and they tumble |
I like the free world |
I like the free world |
They say it’s pretty |
This time of year |
This time of year |
