The atom bomb and the Good Humor Man

We think our South American neighbors are grand
4
We love 'em to beat the band
5
South America, babaloo, babaloo, ayyiyi, babaloo
6
One favor you can do, ayyiyi, you can do
7
You beautiful lands below, don't know what you began
8
To put it plainly, I'm tired of shakin'
9
To that Pan American plan
10
Take back your Samba, ay, your Rumba, ay, your Conga, ayyiyi
11
I can't keep movin', ay, my chassis, ay, any longer, ayyiyi
12
Now maybe Latins, ay, in their middles, ay, are built stronger, ayyiyi
13
But all this takin' to the quakin' and this makin' with the shakin'
14
Leaves me achin', ol탩

First shake around and settle there
16
Then you shake around and settle here
17
Then you shake around and settle there
18
That's enough, that's enough, take it back
19
My spine's outta whack, there's a strange click, clack
20
In the back of my Sacroiliac
21
Take back your Conga, ay, your Samba, ay, your Rumba, ayyiyi
22
Why can't you send us, ay, a less strenu, ay, ous number, ayyiyi?

I got more bumps now, ay, than on a, ay, cucumber, ayyiyi

While all those Latin drums are cloppin'
25
like a Jumpin' Jack I'm hoppin' Without stoppin', ol탩
26
South America take it away
27
First you shake around and settle there, where?
28
Then you shake around and settle here, oh, there
29
And then you shake around and settle there, why Bing?
30
That's enough, that's enough, take it back
31
My spine's outta whack, there's a strange click clack
32
In the back of my Sacroiliac, oh, my achin' back
33
Take back your Conga, ay, your Samba, ay, your Rumba, ayyiyi
34
Bring back the old days, ay, of dancin', I remember, ayyiyi
35
My hips are crackin' ay, I am shriekin' "Ay Carumba", ayyiyi
36
I got a wriggle and a diddle and a jiggle like a fiddle in my middle, ol탩
37
This fancy swishin' imposition wears out
38
All of my transmission Ammunition, ol탩
39
Though I like neighborly relations all these crazy new gyrations
40
Try my patience, ol탩, South America, take it away
