Somewhere up town late last night around 9 o'clock   There was a black snake crawling up the   Latin American stairs   With his   Slicked   Black   Cockroachair   He was greasy lightning   He was looking for someone else   He said "I know you, you know me, heyheylezzosee.....   I'm in the Mood to Mambo..."   Yeah Bongo Crazy man.   Someone else pulled out a gun and said   "It's a little too late for that sort of thing...   If you think that you're the white/black snake don't go messing with me...   I'm not in the mood"   Somebody else pulled,   I said "Don't be rude....just say Bongo Crazy man"   Yah...been there   Done that   given every tit-for-tat   I'm for me   You're for you   Let's keep it that way   Okay??      Meanwhile   Later on underneath the river   Some frogman slipped   On his black beret   Over his skin   Tight rubbersuit.   Black boots   Looking for a place to go   An dive   Heading for the nearest divers skive   Looking for love   On the cheap rate   Go!   Gonna make it down   with you wan   D'ja see?   He said   "Crazy bongo   I'm in the Mood to Mambo"      Meanwhile   We can watch the come   Dancing competitions   From the Midlands International Danceband Orchestra.   Lifting up their frilly chiffon skirts   They whirled and they twirled   In the late night rustle   To the beat of the muscle   Of the drum man   Inanin   he's picking up the beat on the bongo skin   He was lookin for love underneath that din.   He was looking for me   He was looking for you   Till I walked up to the woman   And I said   (with a shoe)   I'm in the mooooood tooooooo mambo   Bongo Crazy      sssshhhh....   Let me into one of the secrets of this place   Y'see thelate night   Flick knives   glitter through the window   Careful where you go boy   Those knives are   Flick   Flack   Flagging through the dark, man   They're gonna cut   your   skin   I talked to Fr.
