the natives are restless tonight

let me tell you 'bout my neighborhood

if you're visiting tonight

you better stay out of the shadows

stay in the bright

bright light

don't take fright

the natives are restless tonight

they're not particularly interested in me or you

they're just looking for some meat

they can put in their stew

don't take fright

the natives are restless tonight

and they say. hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

it's best to stay upstairs

with the good book alone

'cause when the drums start burnin'

you better leave your sermons at home

don't take fright

the natives are restless tonight

and they say. hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

you might consider yourself lucky

just to be alive

'cause it's a full moon tonight

and it's right for a conquering tribe. don't take fright

the natives are restless tonight

and they say. hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey

hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey hoom baba hoom baba hoom baba hey hey
