Boom-Dee-Adda

Boom-dee-adda, boom-dee-adda, ziss-boom-bah Halleluiah, hip-hooray and do-re-me-fah-lah Betcha can't guess why my spirits are flying high My uncle left me scads of dough, a happy dude am I Let me see, what to do with all my new found cash A villa on the Riviera, each night a different bash Or what about a condo in the centre of Manhattan Frequent all the trendy spots in tails, top hat and satin Find a gal with a luscious bod to curl up all my toes Money talks, I might get lucky Heaven surely knows Keep your knickers on said one of my very good friends Is this the way you really want this lurid tale to end Why not give it all to the needy coz at the end of the day You'll feel like a million bucks, and this is what you'll say Boom-dee-adda, boom-dee-adda, ziss-boom-bah Halleluiah, hip-hooray and do-re-me-fah-lah © Jack Ellison 2012
