Lyrics

[Intro] This song is dedicated To all the parents whose children have reached The age of curiosity [Verse 1] When I was a lad just three-foot-three Certain questions occurred to me So I asked me father quite seriously To tell me the story 'bout the bird and bee He stammered and he stuttered pathetically And this is what he said to me [Chorus] He said, "The woman piaba and the man piaba And the Ton Ton call baka lemongrass The lily root, gully root, belly root, uh And the famous grandy scratch, scratch [Verse 2] It was clear as mud, but it covered the ground And the confusion made me brain go 'round I went and ask a good friend of mine Known to the world as Albert Einstein He said, "Son, from the beginning of time and creativity There existed the force of relativity Pi r square and a minus ten is a routine only when Hey, the solar system in one light year Make the Hayden planetarium disappear So if Mount Everest doesn't move I am positive that it will prove [Chorus] That the woman piaba and the man piaba And the Ton Ton call baka lemongrass The lily root, gully root, belly root, uh And the famous grandy scratch, scratch [Verse 3] It was clear as mud, but it covered the ground And the confusion made me brain go 'round I grabbed a boat and I went abroad In Baden Baden asked Sigmund Fraud He said "Son, from your sad face remove the grouch Put the body up on the couch I can see from your frustration a neurotic sublimation Hey, love and hate is psychosomatic Your Rorschach shows that you're a peripatetic It all started with a broken sibling In the words of the famous Rudyard Kipling [Chorus] Ey-yo, woman piaba and the man piaba And the Ton Ton call baka lemongrass The lily root, gully root, belly root, uh And the famous grandy scratch, scratch [Verse 4] Well, I traveled far and I traveled wide And I don't even have me self a bride All the great men upon this earth Have confused me since my birth I've been over land and been over sea Trying to find the answer 'bout the bird and bee But now that I am ninety three I don't give a damn, you see [Chorus] If the woman piaba and the man piaba And the Ton Ton call baka lemongrass The lily root, gully root, belly root, uh And the famous grandy scratch, scratch
