200 SONGS

WITH THE

BEST LYRICS

             #181

DE DO DO DO, DE DA DA DA

“…Poets, priests & politicians,

have words to thank for their positions...”

Don't let the nonsensical title fool you, the lyrics to "De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da" have a logical point to make. The song was featured on The Police's 1980 album 'Zenyatta Mondatta'. Lyricist Sting is a master of the songwriting craft and cleverly makes a point via the simplicity of the verses.

As new songs are covered on this blog, a definitive version will be added to a spotify playlist. Find it and the other Caffé Latté playlists at:
