Zombie Jamboree Lyrics

Lyrics:



It was a Zombie Jamboree

Took place in a New York
cemetery

It was a Zombie Jamboree

Took place in a New York
cemetery



Zombies from all parts of the Island

Some of them
was a great Calypsonians

Although the season was Carnival

We get
together in bacchanal

And they singing



Back to back, belly
to belly

I dont give a damn, I done dead already

Oho back to back,
belly to belly

At the Zombie Jamboree



One female Zombie
wouldnt behave

See how she jumping out of the grave

In one hand a
quarter rum

In the other hand she knocking Congo drum

Believe
singer start to make his rhyme

The Zombies are racking their bones in
thyme

One bystander had this to say

T was a pleasure to see the
Zombies break away



Back to back, belly to belly

I dont give
a damn, I done dead already

Oho back to back, belly to belly

At the
Zombie Jamboree



I goin talk to Miss Brigit Bardot

And tell
her miss Bardot take it slow

All the men think they're Casanova

When they see that shes bare foot all over

Even old men out into
beaker

Find their hearts getting weaker and weaker

So I goin to ask
her for your sake and mine

At least to wear her ear rings part at the
time



Back to back, belly to belly

I dont give a damn, I done
dead already

Oho back to back, belly to belly

At the Zombie
Jamboree



A lot of World leaders talkin bout war

And Im
afraid they're going too far

So its up to us you and me 

To put an
end to Catastrophe

We must appeal to their goodness of heart

And
ask them to breech in and please do their part

Cause if this Atomic war
begin

They wont even have a part to breech in



Back to back,
belly to belly-
