==Lyrics==
You're welcome to the jungle
You have friends in Kokomo
If you hear London calling you then that's where you should go
But never go down to Funkytown
Never go down to Funkytown
Oh no

There ain't no mountain high enough so keep running up that hill
Or look under the boardwalk, baby
In Margarita Hill, that's fine but
Never go down to Funkytown
The funk ran out and the town burned down
So stay the hell out of Funkytown for me

You must never go down to Funkytown, you see
You see

If you want to dance, I don't care
You can dance almost anywhere
In the summertime, in the air tonight
Or in paradise by the dashboard light

But never go down to Funkytown
I think it's some kind of burial ground
So stay the hell out of Funkytown, oh no

People keep going to Funkytown and leaving me behind
I get the sweats imagining the awful things they find
People keep going to Funkytown and never coming back
I miss my friends and family and now you're all I have

So never go down to Funkytown
You'll disappear and you'll never be found
So stay the hell out of Funkytown for me
For me (for me)
Never go down to Funkytown
There's something dangerous lurking 'round
So stay the fuck out of Funkytown for me (for me)
For me
You must never go down to Funkytown you see
