"Do the Donkey Kong" is a song featured on the 1982 album Pac-Man Fever, and was performed by Buckner & Garcia. The song was later released as a single in May 1982, though it was not as successful as the album nor the "Pac-Man Fever" single release. The song is based the Donkey Kong arcade game and features many of the game's sound effects as well as some of the in-game music.

Lyrics

Wave your hands in the air, stomp your feet on the ground
Climb up the ladder quickly, and then spin yourself around
Open the umbrella up and answer the phone
You can do it with a partner, you can do it all alone
Scale up the wall, just how high can you go
You'll surely break her heart if you get up there too slow
Pound upon your chest and take an elevator ride
You can get off at the top and then you look from side to side

Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Do the Donkey Kong
Do the Donkey Kong
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Do the Donkey Kong
Do the Donkey Kong

Tip-toe through the tulips and then raise your hands up high
There's a fire down below and you don't want to catch his eye
Hide behind each other and don't even make a sound
You're in trouble now, take the elevator down
Jump over all the barrels and let out a little scream
Duck underneath the pie, 'cause it's a coconut cream
You pick the hammer up and then you put the fire out
Now we think you know what Donkey Kong is all about

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
Come on and do the Donkey Kong
Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong (Do the Donkey Kong)
And do the Donkey Kong

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
D-d-d-do the Donkey Kong
Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
Come on and do the Donkey Kong
Do the Donkey Kong

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
And you can do the Donkey Kong
Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
And you can do the Donkey Kong
And do the Donkey Kong

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
And you can do the Donkey Kong
Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
Do the Donkey Donkey Kong
And do the Donkey Kong

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
Come on and do the Donkey Kong
Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
Come on and do the Donkey Kong
Do the Donkey Kong

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
And do the Donkey Kong

Come on, come on (Come on)
Come on, come on (Come on)
Do the Donkey Kong
Come on and do the Donkey Kong
And do the Donkey Kong
