It makes respectable civilians
Like those millions of Brazilians
Feel the urge to put feathers on
And go dancing in the street

That's when the samba takes hold of your
Heart and your feet

The world is goin' loco
The world is goin' loco
The world is goin' loco
So cuckoo loco!
[RABBI, spoken]
No!
We went back, we went back
Was it ever not as obvious as it is now?
We were so young
