"Civilization" is an American conventional pop music. It was written by way of Bob Hilliard and Carl Sigman, printed in 1947[1] and later included in the 1947 Broadway musical Angel in the Wings, sung by Elaine Stritch.[2] The song is on occasion also known as "Bongo, Bongo, Bongo (I Don't Want to Leave the Congo)", from its first line of the refrain.

Concept

The tune is a satire sung from the standpoint of a native individual whose village is visited by way of a missionary and different "civilized" other people whom the native refers to as "educated savages". These visitors are seeking to "civilize" the tribe. However, the local rejects them and sings about the primary flaws in civilized society, in the long run deciding that he'll keep where he lives (possibly the Congo in the track's lyrics).
