Round The World With The Rubber Duck lyrics

[on the cb.]
Breaker, one-nine, this here`s the duck again. you got a copy on me pig pen, c`mon? ah, negatory, pig pen, there ain`t no way out `cept for that one atlantic ocean. now listen, drop them hogs of
Omaha and get over here in a short, `cause it definitely looks like we got us a problem.

Bears to the left; bears to the right
We didn`t have no place to go.
They had us backed up clean to the shore,
And them cab-over petes don`t float.
I says, "pig pen, i got me a good idea.
Them friends a` jesus gonna save us!
"so praise the lord and mister ford,
And follow that micra-bus, ten-four.

[now, imagine a bunch of rowdy pirates -- the buccaneer type, not software -- chanting the chorus.]

[chorus]
Yo ho ho, and a thousand trucks
Gonna take a bath with a rubber duck
Yo ho ho, and a lots a` luck
`round the world with the rubber ducky!

Yeah, we drove on the water like diesel whales
Sank about a hunnert-and-ten of `em
I says, "pig pen, they just didn`t have no faith
"they definitely gone ten-seven."
By the time we got into that piccadilly town,
`bout half of `em was lost at sea
I says, "break one-nine for a ten-thirty-three"
What we got was the cotton-pickin` bbc

[spoken, in a sorta british accent]
I say, fabersham. looks likes the americans have got themselves another bloody convoy.

[chorus]
Yo ho ho, and a thousand trucks
Gonna take a bath with a rubber duck
Yo ho ho, and a lots a` luck
`round the world with the rubber ducky!

[spoken, in the same sorta british accent]
Good heavens! look at them all! half of them are sinking in the thames! hello! some of our truck chaps are assisting them. good show, actually. oh, well, ten-four and all that rubbish.

Well, we crossed that channel like snakes on glass
And stormed the beach about dawn
I says, "grab your shifters and punch 13
"we all goin` truckin` on the autobahn.
"now, pig pen, this here`s the ultimate slab
"`cause there goes a mercedes truck."
He says, "break one-three for the strudel machine
"ya just blew the doors off`n the duck. how `bout it?"

[spoken, in a sorta german accent. a really bad german accent.]
Oh, zehn-vier, rubber duck. ve are receiving you vall-to-vall, but the schpeed limit on za autobahn is triple-nickels. you travel too schlow, rubber duck. we gonna see you around. we gone. wiede
N.

[if you know the song, then you can skip this note. if you don`t, then a bit of explanation is necessary. during the next verse, the chorus (the singers, not the words) is heard in the backgroun
At they`re singing is what`s printed in the tiny little letters. no, i am not making this up. that`s what they`re singing.]

Well, we stopped for a coffee in west berlin
Dumb, dumb, dumb. this is
The british had hundred-mile tea
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb.
I says, "pig pen, from here on it`s wall-to-wall bears."
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb,
Says, "bash the wall; we gonna see."
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb.
Well, them big red bears must`a been in the bush
Dumb, dumb, dumb. this is
`cause we didn`t see a one all day
Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb,
So we raked up the leaves and we shook out the tree
Dumb, dumb, dumb. this is
`til they finally had something to say
Dumb, dumb, dumb.
You got it..

[spoken in a bad russian accent. a really bad... you know the rest.]
Comrade duck: you have been given until daybreak in murmansk to get your cotton-pickin` trucks out of the u. s. s. of r. you will copy!

[that `dumb` chorus continues.]
Well, we shot them rigs through salt-mine city
Dumb, dumb
With a hammer and a sickle on down
Dumb, dumb
Then we hit the fan through the sea of japan
Dumb, dumb
Tooled into transistor town
Dumb, dumb
I says, "pig pen, this here must be the place,
Dumb, dumb
"`cause everybody`s eatin` with sticks."
Dumb, dumb
He says, "ten-four, this here is cb land
Dumb, dumb
"`cause my channel knob just went crick."
Dumb, dumb


[spoken in a really bad japanese (fill in the blank)]
Ah so, lubba duck. you have a nice day today, betta day tomollow. we catch you on frip-frop. this one kamikaze ozzie; we gone. sayonara.

[chorus]
Yo ho ho, and a thousand trucks
Gonna take a bath with a lubba duck
Yo ho ho, and a rots a` ruck
`round the world with a lubba ducky!

[obviously, poritical collectness hadn`t yet permeated the u. s. of a. :)]

[on the cb.]
Ah, ten-four, pig pen, what`s your twenty? australia? mercy sakes, ain`t nothin` down there but tasmanian devils and them q-alla bears. what`s that? no double-nickel limit? we gonna be there in
