Ev'ry morning when sun is dawning 
 You'll see him down on the beach. 
 Look out girl better beware 
 Better take care keep yourself out of reach. 
 He's out to make a killing girl, 
 He's out to make a score and maybe 
 If you're willing girl, 
 He's gonna ask for more. 
 Oh, oh figaro he's got magico, oh. 
 Oh, oh figaro he's a romeo, oh 
 See him down on the beach 
 He'll be looking for someone new 
 Searching down on the beach, 
 Figaro, Figaro. 
 When he plays guitar at the disco-bar 
 He's the star of the show 
 As the girls go by he just winks an eye 
 See the pretty girls glow. 
 He's out to make a killing girl, 
 When dancing on the floor and maybe 
 If you're willing girl, 
 He's gonna ask for more. 
 Oh, oh figaro he's got magico, oh. 
 Oh, oh figaro he's a romeo, oh 
 See him down on the beach 
 He'll be looking for someone new 
 Searching down on the beach, 
 Figaro, figaro.
