Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hobo painting on the wall
Just  before him curtain call
Baba Biffo, don't eat beef
He got the subways in his teeth
[Verse 2]
Vambo, Vambo, he save child
He save child that's running wild
Vambo, Vambo, sweat and labor
Never, never steal from neighbor
[Verse 3]
Vambo rule
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rule
Vambo rule, okay
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay
[Verse 4]
Vambo make him a movie show
Ain't nothing Vambo don't know
Even the dumb say Vambo's name
Even a sinner, they don't know shame
[Verse 5]
And Vambo rule
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rule
Vambo rules, okay
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay
[Verse 6]
Vambo never vandal be
Vambo never cut down tree
Vambo, from the future, borrow
He lead the children from tomorrow
[Verse 7]
Vambo, he do koko space
He sure know them human race
Teen-a-go-go, Sunday, go
Vambo, he make the river flow
[Verse 8]
Vambo rule
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rule
Vambo rules, okay
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay
[Verse 9]
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules, okay
Vambo rules
