Just heard through the grapevine, or so the pigeon sings,
No, no, no, no, no, it can't be true, (oh yeah, listen up)
Seems another angel deserves to lose its wings,
My, my, my, my, my, what shall we do'

There's a cry from the hungry crowd: "Who's the sacrificial virgin now'"
The Earth has shaken, the sky is falling,
I can hear the natives calling.

Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano,
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano.

(Meanwhile, back at the camp...)

Dancing 'round the fire, weave your sordid tale,
Never underestimate its power, (better beware)
A lion in the jungle is prowling through the vale, seeking out souls whom he may devour.

There's a cry from the frightened crowd: "We in a heap big trouble now,"
The earth has shaken, the sky is falling,
I can hear the natives calling.

Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano,
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano.

(And they went something like this...)

The earth has shaken, the sky is falling,
I can hear the natives calling.

Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano,
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Tame the volcano, (tame the volcano)
Listen to the natives calling,
Tame the volcano,
Tame the volcano.
