Well I ain't gonna live in your world no more
(Hey, Borneo)
Yeah feeling like a funky two-bit whore
(Here I come, Borneo)
Got a monkey for a president
(Hey, Borneo)
And a head all filled up with cement
(Look out, Borneo)

So I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm getting out of here
Yeah I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm counting, 1! (2!) 3! (4!)
I can't take a minute more

I'm gonna swing like an ape from a banyan tree
(Hey, Borneo)
I'm gonna live me a life of luxury
(Here I come, Borneo)
Or get drunk, untidy, and sleep all day
(Hey, Borneo)
Unti your world is washed away
(Look out, Borneo)

Said I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm getting out of here
Said I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm counting, 4! (3!) 2! (1!)
Set a course for the rising sun

I said I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm getting out of here
Said I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm counting, 10! (9!) 8! (7!)
Monkey's gonna go to heaven

I'm gonna set my sails for the virgin soil
(Hey, Borneo)
You know I don't wanna die for the price of oil
(Here I come, Borneo)
I wanna watch the sun set every night
(Hey, Borneo)
I'm gonna fall alseep in the cool moonlight
(Look out, Borneo

So I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm getting out of here
Said I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
I'm counting, 5! (6!) 7! (8!)
See you at the pearly gates

(Hey, Borneo)
(Here I come, Borneo)
(Hey, Borneo)
(Look out, Borneo)
