Wunga Bunga Boo
Composer(s): Stanley; Alleyn
Performer(s): George Formby



To take a trip on a great big ship 
One day I took the notion
Yo-ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)
But the ship got wrecked which I didn't expect 
And it tipped me in the ocean
Yo-ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)

I swam around for umpteen weeks 
And reached a Zulu isle
With the aid of a rope and a bar of soap 
I landed with a smile
On Wunga Bunga Boo, on Wunga Bunga Boo

Where dressings not extensive 
And floors are not expensive
The girls out there are really beauts 
And walk out in their bathing suits
A string of beads and Russian boots 
In Wunga Bunga Boo

I heard a roar upon the shore
And the chief said, "Pleased to meet you"
Yo-ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)
And "You look" he said "like dairy fed
It'll do us good to eat you"
Yo ho, (Yo-ho, Yo-ho)
"The last white meat we had to eat 
Was an old man lean and bald
When cooked, we found that he didn't go round 
So we're very glad you called"

On Wunga Bunga Boo, on Wunga Bunga Boo
While fighting Big Chief Coco
He went and lost his Boko
The doctor stuck it on quite pat
But upside down, now fancy that
He blew his nose and lost his hat 
In Wunga Bunga Boo

In Wunga Bunga Boo, in Wunga Bunga Boo
An M.P. last September 
Got something to remember
A lion chased him down the street 
And bit him during his retreat
That's how he nearly lost his seat 
In Wunga Bunga Boo
