Head
(Traditional/Fred Elkins/Charlie MacConnach)

There's a tropical chant that everyone knows
Singing of loving and tropical blows
Horny Boy sings it as he's on his way
Recalling his memories of tropical days   
"Head?" "Head?" "Who said Head?"
    "I'll take some of that he said"
    He did and it was good he sings
    And there was much rejoicing
    They boinked and boinked for hours and hours
    Uprooting trees and bushes and flowers
    They boinked like Vikings with horns on their head
    That brings us back to "Who said head?"
They sing it at all of the tropical bars
Drinking rum drinks and looking at stars
Laughing and loving the place that they're at
No one can ever forget about that.

Gigging and jigging and breathing through tubes
Showing your butt and showing your boobs
Taking the time to forget about home
Singing this song you're never alone.
"Head?" "Head?" "Who said Head?"
    "I'll take some of that he said"
    He did and it was good he sings
    And there was much rejoicing
    They boinked and boinked for hours and hours
    Uprooting trees and bushes and flowers
    They boinked like Vikings with horns on their head
    That brings us back to "Who said head?"
Just one more time we all sing the verse
Nobody's better and nobody's worse
Hope once more before we're dead
We can get together and sing about head.
"Head?" "Head?" "Who said Head?"
    "I'll take some of that he said"
    He did and it was good he sings
    And there was much rejoicing
    They boinked and boinked for hours and hours
    Uprooting trees and bushes and flowers
    They boinked like Vikings with horns on their head
    That brings us back to "Who said head?"

    Head?" "Head?" "Who said Head?"
    "I'll take some of that he said"
    He did and it was good he sings
    And there was much rejoicing
    They boinked and boinked for hours and hours
    Uprooting trees and bushes and flowers
    They boinked like Vikings with horns on their head
    That brings us back to "Who said head?"

About this song: We heard Renee down on Normans Cay in the Bahamas reciting the chorus of this and decided that we should write verses for it and put it to music.
