Have you sailed to the island of Bum Bum Ba Loo?
It's something that all great explorers must do.
Ten years ago, I set off with my crew
In search of the island of Bum Bum Ba Loo.
The waves on the sea made me wish that I flew
To get to that island of Bum Bum Ba Loo.
The path on my map led us slightly askew,
And we sailed every ocean before we were through.
But when we arrived it was then that I knew
That all of the stories I heard must be true.
The water surrounding it shone a bright hue,
A magnificent color, like no other blue.
A sign made with vines held together by glue
Stood on the shore, reading "We Welcome You!"
The king had arranged for a great big to-do,
And the queen herself shouted the loudest "Woohoo!"
The Bum Bum Ba Lites gave us bowls of their stew
Which they made from the roots of the Great Bum Ba Doo.
The food could have fed seven hundred and two
At the feast on the Island of Bum Bum Ba Loo.
Our drinks were quite tasty, a tropical brew.
If you ask what was in them, I haven't a clue.
They served us desserts made with Bum Berry goo
As we danced to the tune of the didgeridoo.
We all thanked the King for the party he threw,
Of course, not forgetting to thank the Queen too.
From their palace they showed us the wonderful view,
And we saw all the fields where the Bum Berries grew.
As gifts, I gave both of them gumballs to chew.
When they asked me for more, I had only a few.
So we hopped on the ship where we kept a whole slew,
But it got carried off when the northern wind blew.
The island has since waited to be found anew
Till I pick someone worthy to give the map to.
And now I've decided to pass it to you
To discover the island of Bum Bum Ba Loo.
