DavidM wrote: Ok, I've tried to write down the chords and lyrics from the banana phone song. chords were no big deal, but i dont understand some stuff of the lyrics.
2 things:
the line after "I place a call around the world", what does it say?
and this one: "A brother and sister and -----(???) phone"

Operater get me Bay Jing Jing Jing Jing
=Chinese name? around the world? :O

A brother and sister and dogga phone.

"Operater get me Beijing Jing Jing Jing"

And I don't think dogga is supposed to mean much more than just that..dogga =\

anything to do with a dog?

what would "Operater get me Beijing" mean? makes no sense to me inferior german being

an operator is someone you call if you dont know a phone number and he will patch you through... so hes basically asking to speak to someone from beijing

yeah and dogga in that context is referring to a dog, just slang i guess or to make it rhyme whatever ^^
