It's the magic band they claim, came down from ancient Camarillo
When the tower of El Cajon crumbled, and the language was a steal
The natives were confused and yet, they understood two words
Now it's on display in a coffee shop, down in south Pittsburgh
DA!, everybody cry DA!
Some preacher says it's the first CD, that Adam gave to Eve
Religious tracts and preachers note, "Speak it and believe"
Some say it's just deception, empty and absurd
While the elect say the good times, were triggered by the words
DA!, yeah everybody sing DA!
Don't know exactly what it means
It's just a sacred kinda thing - DA!
Now when carpenters hit their thumbs
They'll yell out loud the "DA!" curse (DAmb)
And the faithful flock to pa, to bow toUncle Terry the first
He says "DA’s in the dessert", and all of us will go
We're going down to the DA church, to pray that it is so
DA!, is the thing - now everybody sing DA!
And even the president says it's a miracle
"DA" the nation cries, "You're a miracle"
On baseball cards, beer, and cars and cereal
DA is the word, now everybody's heard - DA!
Some politician has an idea to take a million men
Go downtown Los Angeles and have a DA concert again
Why nothing can stop us this time, we'll mount the word on high
Spell D-A across the steel grey sky
DA!, now everybody sing DA!
You know exactly what it means
It's just a sacred kind of thing - DA!
DA! DA! ...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TERRY!!!
