Man Piaba Harry Belafonte

[Intro]
This song is dedicated
To all the parents whose children have reached
The age of curiosity

[Verse 1]
When I was a lad just three-foot-three
Certain questions occurred to me
So I asked me father quite seriously
To tell me the story 'bout the bird and bee
He stammered and he stuttered pathetically
And this is what he said to me

[Chorus]
He said, "The woman piaba and the man piaba
And the Ton Ton call baka lemongrass
The lily root, gully root, belly root, uh
And the famous grandy scratch, scratch

[Verse 2]
It was clear as mud, but it covered the ground
And the confusion made me brain go 'round
I went and ask a good friend of mine
Known to the world as Albert Einstein
He said, "Son, from the beginning of time and creativity
There existed the force of relativity
Pi r square and a minus ten is a routine only when
Hey, the solar system in one light year
Make the Hayden planetarium disappear
So if Mount Everest doesn't move
I am positive that it will prove
