Jingle Jangle Jungle

(álbum: Bobby Darin Born Walden Robert Cassotto - 1968)

I live in a jingle jangle jungle
If you ain't got it you can't be
Fighting over crumbs
Wait till payday comes
Getting green ink thumbs
From counting
While it's mounting
In this jingle jangle jungle I call home.

You live in a jingle jangle jungle
If you can't earn it you ain't free
Where a life is spent
Trying to meet the rent
Paying back the cent
You borrow
Some tomorrow
In this jingle jangle jungle you call home.

We live in a jingle jangle jungle
You're only worth what you can buy
So keep on working hard
To keep your own back yard
Teach your kids that God
Ain't fiction
Contradiction
In this jingle jangle jungle you call home.

I live in a jingle jangle jungle
If it don't jingle it's gonna fold
All the things you own
Are only here on loan
It's by bread alone
You're living
Call this living
In this jingle jangle jungle we call home.

I live in a jingle jangle jungle
Where people die to make some green
Turning men to boys
Making new war toys
Dancing to the noise
Of ticker
Can't get much sicker
In this jingle jangle jungle we can home.
