Manu Chao
King of the Bongo Bong [Clandestino Cover]
[Skit: Excerpt from Eddie Murphy's Raw]
E: And send your woman off to the romantic Bahamas by herself? By herself? To the Bahamas?! She laid out all day and got a tan—your woman is fine and got her body looking right. There's lovers on the beach making love, the moon is shimmying off the ocean—and your woman is standing there looking at it and crying and all of a sudden a dude named Dexter walks up—Dexter Saint Jock...

D: What a beautiful girl like you doing by herself on the island of love?

W: I'm having some problems with my boyfriend so I came down here to think it over.

D: Well tell me what hotel your man staying in and me go over and tell him you treat a woman like you like a princess! If you were my woman I'd make love to you constantly! What hotel this man staying in?!

W: Well, he's back in New York...

D: Is that right?

(music starts)

D: Well listen girl, won't you come back round my place?
We sit down and talk it over.

W: All we gon' do is talk...?

[Intro]
Girl we gon' do more than that—

[Refrain 1]
I can tell you anything that you would ever want to hear
I can make you feel so good
You'd probably end up disappearing on him
No need to try and argie baby
Listen to them bongos baby
You know that you love 'em
You know that you'd probably come and see me
Come and hug me when you see me
After all this cause I'm the—
[Hook]
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo Bong
Hear me when I come baby
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo Bong
Everybody knows my name

[Verse 1]
I understand the game
I just don't know how to win it
What do you mean breathe?
I don't know how to breathe
All I see are the trees, the fire and smoke
The burning—it hurts
How could you leave to enter the jungle
With mister—

[Hook]
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo Bong
Hear me when I come baby
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo Bong
Everybody knows my name
[Verse 2]
What is intoxication
But the search for the feelings we feel we deserve
How 'bout I give you a bit for dessert
More than you should have
You should try and ride it out
I know you'll enjoy it, I know you'll scream for it
When I make you Mrs.—

[Hook]
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo Bong
Hear me when I come baby
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo Bong
Everybody knows my name

[Verse 3]
I hate lies, I hate covers
I hate blinds, I hate lovers
Teach me what you are, seems to get you far
Seems to get you everything you want
Guess I'll probably try it out right now

[Refrain 2]
I can tell you everything that you would never want to hear
I can make you feel so bad
You'd probably end up disappearing on him
No need to try and argie baby
Listen to them bongos baby
You know that you hate 'em
You know that you'd probably go and see him
Go and fake me when you see him
After all this cause I'm the—
[Outro]
Manu Chao ladies and gentlemen
Cause he the...
Cause he the...
Cause he the...
(Hear me when I come baby)
Cause he the...
Cause he the...
Cause he the...
(Everybody knows my name)

[Skit: Excerpt from Eddie Murphy's Raw]
E: Next thing you know
Dexter is fucking your woman—well...
Send your woman home floating on air...
Walk through the door like this:
"I shot the sheriff."

A: And the muthafuckin' deputy...
