Song lyrics
Mama was queen of the mambo
papa was king of the Congo
deep down in a jungle
I started banging my first bongo

Every monkey liked to be
in my place instead of me
cause I'm the king of Bongo
baby I'm the king of Bongo Bong

I went to the big town
where there is a lot of sound
from the jungle to the city
looking for a bigger crowd

So I played my Boogie
for the people of big city
but they don't go crazy
when I'm banging all my boogie
I'm the

Chorus:
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo bong
Hear me when I come, baby
King of the Bongo
King of the Bongo bong

Nobody liked to be
in my place instead of me
cause nobody go crazy
when I'm banging on my boogie

I'm a king without a crown
Hanging loose in a big town
but I'm the king of Bongo
baby I'm the king of Bongo Bong

Refrain

They said that I'm a clown
making too much dirty sound
they said there is no place
for little monkey in this town

Nobody liked to be
in my place instead of me
cause nobody go crazy
when I'm banging all my boogie
I'm the

Refrain

Banging on my bongo
all that swing belongs to me
I'm so happy there's nobody
in my place instead of me

I'm a king without a crown
Hanging loose in a big town
I'm the king of Bongo
baby I'm the king of Bongo Bong

Chorus

Mama was queen of the mambo
papa was king of the Congo
deep down in a jungle
I started banging my first bongo

Every monkey liked to be
in my place instead of me
cause I'm the king of Bongo
baby I'm the king of Bongo Bong

Hear me when I come...

Je ne t'aime plus mon amour
Je ne t'aime plus tous les jours
Je ne t'aime plus mon amour
Je ne t'aime plus tous les jours

parfois j'aimerais mourir tellement j'ai voulu croire
parfois j'aimerais mourir pour ne plus rien avoir
parfois j'aimerais mourir pour plus jamais te voir

Je ne t'aime plus mon amour...

Parfois j'aimerais mourir tellement
(il n')y a plus d'espoir
Parfois j'aimerais mourir pour plus jamais te revoir
parfois j'aimerais mourir pour ne plus rien savoir

Je ne t'aime plus mon amour...
