Ubongo?

Um Bongo

Way down deep in the middle of the Congo,
A hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango.
He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.
The rhino said, "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo"
Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo.
The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin.
The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.
So when it comes to sun and fun and goodness in the jungle,
They all prefer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

Ah the halcyon days :)

I have just returned from a hazardous assignment as a diplomatic envoy to the Democratic Republic of Congo. I can assert that as no point did I see anyone drinking Um Bongo, and that for the danger involved in trying to obtain it, one would be better off going to Sainsbury's and settling for Five Alive instead.

That rant was one of the best things I've ever read on LJ.

When I get drunk and I'm near a computer I just end up sending pictures of my cock to people I shouldn't.

Ahh.. but that's the joy of LJ m'dear ;)

I still maintain that my computer should be issued with a breathlyser for my own good at times.

PS My sister is allergic to Um Bongo (they drink it in the Congo). Trufax.

I thought it was your finest work to date. I was genuinely thinking of putting it on the reading list for my students. Then getting them all to do a remix of one of your songs.

I have yet to decide this is anything other than a wonderful idea... ;P

Do it. They need to learn that:

1. the limo will never arrive
2. you're worse off if it does arrive
3. if you're not making music because you have the incurable making music chemical imbalance in your brain, then please don't make music kthx.

1. Used this line in a teaching session - next step is a t-shirt, I'm sure deathboy will be on that before midnight...

2. I posted Albini's 'some of your friends are already this fucked' on the college intranet as ESSENTIAL READING

3. I've no objection to chemically balanced hobbyists making music, however dull it is - unless i am forced to listen to it...

2. And don't forget Courtney Love did one too which was pretty good.
