I had convinced my nephew, who is a die-hard music junkie, that there were actual lyrics in the 'da ba dee' parts because I really thought that's what he was saying. It was hard to tell because the voice is electronically altered. When I actually saw '(Da Ba Dee)' in the song title on the CD, I felt dumb because my nephew had started convincing telling friends that there were actual words too, because I had convinced him so strongly.
