Bobby Darin - Jingle Jangle Jungle lyrics

rate me

I live in a jingle jangle jungle

If you ain't got it you can't be

Fightin' over crumbs

Wait till payday comes

Gettin' green ink thumbs

From countin'

While it's mountin'

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

Tryin' to meet the rent

Payin' 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 workin' 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 livin'

Call this livin'

In this jingle jangle jungle we call home.

I live in a jingle jangle jungle

Where people die to make some green

Turnin' men to boys

Makin' new war toys

Dancin' to the noise

Of ticker

Can't get much sicker

In this jingle jangle jungle we can home.
