[CHORUS]Oop shoop moogi mushy doggy, ohOop shoop moogi ayMeans son, don't go near the EskimosPlease do what I sayMy daddy was workingFor the weather stationA little bit North of NomeAnd I grew up in that frozen countryWhere the nights are six months longI used to play like I was an EskimoI put whale oil on my hairAnd every night I would beg my folksLet me sleep in the frigid airI was seventeen and my voice was changingBut the girls didn't thrill me none'Cause I longed to go see an EskimoOn the banks of the old YukonOne night I slipped from my daddy's houseA little bit north of NomeI knew that I could get back by morning'Cause the nights are six months longSongtexteAnd there she wasSitting on a chunk of iceEating a frozen fishAnd dipping her friskiesIn whale blubbeAnd I said, ooga shooga mooshkaWhich means the love in my heartIs a burningAnd she said, ooga mooshka nooshkaAnd that means, back up, buddyYou're melting the iceI went back home and I told my daddyAbout this maiden fairAnd how I felt I'd love to meltThem icicles in her hairDad's trembling lips turned purpleAnd his breath began to freezeIt was then he told meI could never rub nosesWith pretty little Um Shog NeeHe said, son, when you were bornWell, the Eskimo and the white manWere having a lot of wild parties, seeThe Eskimos always brought the iceWell, they's having a lot of fun, you seeSo one night, this Eskimo named Pie EyeThat's right, son, a pie-eyed EskimoHe stole my little boy and madeA icicle out of himSo I stole you to get evenI was gonna make aFudgesicle out of youBut I loved you like you's my very ownAnd I treated you just, you knowJust like the cold bloodedLittle Eskimo that you areSo you see, son, you can neverRub noses with Um Shog Nee no moreBecause, excuse me, see, Um Shog NeeHas the coldest nose in AlaskaAnd that's why I've always say[repeat CHORUS] Aus Songtexte Mania
