It was written, originally, by the dixie cups in the 60's and it's called "Iko Iko" but the Belle Stars covered it again in the 80's.

Re: What is the name of this song??

its called something like Aiko Aiko and the lyrics go:

My grandma and your grandma
Were sittin' by the fire.
My grandma told your grandma:
"I'm gonna set your flag on fire."

Chorus:
Talkin' 'bout: Hey now! Hey now!
Iko, Iko, unday
Jockamo feeno ai nané.
Jockamo fee nané.

He's a lovin' machine.

Re: What is the name of this song??

Actually the song I believe you are looking for is by a band called The Belle Stars and the name of the song is "Iko Iko" or sometimes spelled "Aiko Aiko". There are a lot of veriations on the lyrics and alot of different bands have covered the song and changed the lyrics, but this sounds like the version you are looking for.

Re: What is the name of this song and who sings it??

The song goes "watching flowers on the wall that don't bother me at all, playing solitare till dawn with a deck of 51, smoking cigarettes and watching captain kangaroo now don't tell me I've nothing to do"

: The song goes "watching flowers on the wall that don't bother me at all, playing solitare till dawn with a deck of 51, smoking cigarettes and watching captain kangaroo now don't tell me I've nothing to do"

Actually it's "Counting FLowers",, the song title is "Flowers on the wall"... the song was written by Lew Dewitt, one of the original members of the Statler Brothers,,I was having trouble getting the song out of my head, and I ended up here,,,(I kept thinking it was "watching" as well, Yeah, I know, this isn't timely...
