[Verse 1]
Do you see banana man?
Hopping over on de white hot sand
Here he come with some for me
Freshly taken from banana tree (One, two, three, four)
Banana man, me want a ton
Gimme double and a bonus one
Gimme more for all me friends
Dis banana flow will never end
[Chorus]
Do you want a banana?
Peel it down and go, "Mm-mmm mm-mmm"
Do you want a banana?
Dis banana for you
[Verse 2]
Tonight we dance around de flame
Then we get to play de spirit game
Spirit names we shout out loud
Shake de thunder from de spirit cloud
All de songbirds in de tree
Chant a tune to let de spirits free
Den we see dem in de night
Spirits jumping by de firelight
[Chorus]
Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana?)
Peel it down and go, "Mm-mmm mm-mmm"
Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana?)
Dis banana for you
[Bridge]
Look you, you too uptight you know
You could laugh and kick it back it and go
But without a rhythm or a rhyme
You do not banana all de time
Fly away from city on de run
Try to make a little fun (Little fun)
(Forget all your troubles and go with de flow)
(Forget about whatever you may never know) Look you, come to de bungalow
(Like whether whatever you doing is whatever you should) African't you tell me, told you so
(And whether anything you do is ever anything good) Don't you love de bumping of de drum?
(And then forget about banana when it stick in your throat) Make you shake until de bum go numb
(And when it make you wanna bellow but you stuck in a choke) Let de bongo play you till you drop
(And then forget about de yellow from de beckoning man) Dis banana never stop
Who make you take another one and make a mock of your plan (Never stop)
Bungalay, bungalow
Make up your mind and tell me no
[Breakdown]
Well it's nine o'clock and it's getting dark
The sun is falling from the sky
I've never left so early
And you may wonder why
[Interlude]
What's really truly what I say is that about a little sigh
Going once, going twice
I'm not delirious
I've waited very patiently
[Verse 3]
Tomorrow morning on de plane
No banana make you go insane
Floating back to Busytown
No banana make you want to frown
[Chorus]
Do you want a banana? (Do you want a banana?)
Peel it down and go, "Mm-mmm mm-mmm"
Do you want a banana?
Dis banana for you
