Testi

[Verse 1]

Now the King told the boogie men

You have to let that raga drop

The oil down the desert way

Has been shakin' to the top

The Sheik, he drove his Cadillac

He went a-cruisin' down the ville

The Muezzin was a-standing

On the radiator grille (Oh!)

[Chorus]

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

[Verse 2]

By order of the Prophet

We ban that boogie sound

Degenerate the faithful

With that crazy Casbah sound

But the Bedouin they brought out

The electric camel drum

The local guitar picker

Got his guitar-picking thumb

As soon as the Sharif had cleared the square

They began to wail

[Chorus]

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

[Verse 3]

Now over at the temple

Oh, they really pack 'em in

The in crowd say it's cool

To dig this chanting thing

But as the wind changed direction

Then the temple band took five

The crowd caught a whiff

Of that crazy Casbah jive

[Chorus]

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

[Verse 4]

The King called up his jet fighters

He said, "You better earn your pay"

"Drop your bombs between the minarets"

"Down the Casbah way"

As soon as the Sharif was chauffeured outta there

The jet pilots tuned to the cockpit radio blare

As soon as the Sharif was outta their hair

The jet pilots wailed

[Chorus]

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

The Sharif don't like it

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

[Chorus]

The Sharif don't like it (He thinks it's not kosher)

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

The Sharif don't like it (Fundamentally can't take it)

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

[Outro]

The Sharif don't like it (You know he really hates it)

Rockin' the Casbah

Rock the Casbah

The Sharif don't like it (Really, really hates it)
