Well I heard they castrated castro

I heard they cut off everything he had

What a dirty low down thing to do

To mess him up like that

They dumped him in a jungle

In the land of the sugar cane

Ever since the day they fiddled around

I said he ain't never been the same

I say oooh-la

I say oooh-la

I say oooh-la

Well I heard they castrated castro

Because he was the people's friend

They told him once and they told him twice

Said I ain't gonna tell you again

They put a bit of pressure on him

That's when he told them what they could do

So the word came down from a northern town

"Set up a jungle rendezvous"

I say oooh-la

I say oooh-la

We say oooh-la

He had been livin' in a different world

Then he was nutted by reality

He had been living in another tree

Then he flew down

To see what happened

I went out to see my sister

She was not in

So I went and bought a paper

Then I returned

She was well into the racing

On the tv

She has never been that fond of me

I went and turned her over

See I'd been livin' in a different world

Then I was nutted by reality

I had been living in another tree

Then I flew down

To see what happens

I was listening to an echo

I was impressed

Even though I couldn't see it

It was the most

I was jumping and a-gleeing at every one

I was speaking in a foreign tongue

My pleasure gave no pleasure

See I'd been livin' in a different world

Then I was nutted by reality

I had been barking up another tree

Then I flew down

To see what happened
