Zombie Jamboree (Hungry i version)

[Intro]
Right now, as a point of information
Something we didn't know until recently
Every year in Trinidad they have what is known as a calypsonian carnival
In which the various native groups down there
Vie with one another, uh, musically
In order to find out who is the best extemporaneous composer of them all
Yes, and in the year 1955 Lord Invader and His Twelve Penetrators
Took the title with this next song
Uh, based on a theme by Goethe involving the Dance of the Dead
Well, uh, Invader could only draw from experience
So, he called it, of course, "Zombie Jamboree", the song that killed calypso

¿Por qué no?

[Chorus]
Well, now, back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (Now, he did call us)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (Yes)

[Verse 1]
Zombie jamboree took place
In a New York cemetery (Where?)
Zombie jamboree took place
In Long Island cemetery
Zombies from all parts of the island (Where?)
Some of them are great calypsonian (Some)
Since the season was carnival
They got together in bacchanal (What ya' doin'?)

[Chorus]
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (Feel that)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree

[Verse 2]
One female zombie wouldn't behave
She say she want me for a slave
In the one hand she's holding a quart of wine (Oh)
In the other she's pointing that she'll be mine (Ho-ho-ho)
Well, believe me folks, I had to run (Why?)
A husband of a zombie ain't no fun (Don't knock it!)
I says, "Oh, no, my turtledove
That old bag of bones I cannot love" (What you doin'?)

[Chorus]
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (Oh, what a good game)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree

[Verse 3]
Right then and there she raise her feet
"I'm a-going to catch you now, my sweet
I'm gonna make you call me 'Sweetie Pie'" (Oh?)
I says, "Oh, no, get back, you lie"
"I may be lyin' but you will see" (What?)
After you kiss this dead zombie" (Blaaah!)
Well, I never seen such a horror in my life
Can you imagine me with a zombie wife? (Yes!)

[Chorus]
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree (You're all alone, you know)
Back to back, belly to belly
Well, I don't give a damn 'cause I done dead already
Back to back, belly to belly
At the zombie jamboree

[Outro]
Thank you very much
