What is the song that Sophia sings to the children in the movie? She also sings it at the party she goes to with Cary. Is there somewhere where I can get the lyrics?

I found those lyrics anyway at http://www.ajmackintosh.ukgateway.net/film/BingBangBong.txt
Here they are:
The name of the song is "Bing Bang Bong"
Prego prego
Anywhere you may go
Make each day be a day full of fun
If there's a game or a girl to be won
Do it with a Bing Bang Bong
A Bing Bang Bong
Presto presto
Do your very besto
Don't hang back like a shy little kid
You'll be so glad that you did what you did
If you do it with a Bing Bang Bong
A Bing Bang Bong
Be like Cristobol Columbo
Take a chance
Take a chance
Don't be a dopey or a dumbo
Gotta run in a trance
One step two step
Stepping through a new step
Live your life with a zip and a zing
You'll have the world on the end of a string
If you do it with a Bing Bang Bong
A Bing Bang Bong
A BING BANG BONG

Isn't this one of the cutest songs sung in a movie? I'd like to sing it to my children (if I ever have).

The first song my son ever heard was Sinatra's I've Got the World on a String.

When I first heard that song, I thought it was just wondrous. It's so cute, I can surely agree on that.

I know what you mean. I enjoy singing "beep the Police" by NWA to my kids; good times my friend!

She shouold have just sung something along thelines of, "I'm an extremely irritating stereotype with big, aerodynamic yabos, in a corny, corny movie!"

This is an Eye-talian song, correct?
"Don't call me 'honey', mac."

Oh my God, I just realized I don't have it anymore. I don't know why, but I must have deleted it. I am soooo sorry.

For those that want the song, I found it on iTunes. Just search "Sophia Loren" and it's like the 3rd song that comes up.
