[Verse 1]
Do you see banana man?
Hopping over on the white hot sand
Here he come with some for me
Freshly taken from banana tree
Banana man, me want a ton
Gimme double and a bonus one
Gimme more for all me friends
This 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?
This banana for you
[Verse 2]
Tonight we dance around de flame
Then we get to play the spirit game
Spirit names we shout out loud
Shake the thunder from the spirit cloud
All the songbirds in the tree
Chant a tune to let the spirits free
Then we see them in the night
Spirits jumping by the 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?)
This banana for you
[Bridge]
Look you, you too uptight you know
You could laugh and kick it back it and go (whee)
But without a rhythm or a rhyme
You do not banana all the time
Fly away from city on the run
Try to make a little fun
Look you, come to the bungalow
African't you tell me, told you so
Don't you love the bumping of the drum?
Make you shake until the bum go numb
Let the bongo play you till you drop
This banana never stop (never stop, never stop)
Forget all your troubles and go with the flow
Forget about whatever you may never know
Like whether whatever you doing is whatever you should
And whether anything you do is ever anything good
And then forget about banana when it stick in your throat
And when it make you wanna bellow but you stuck in a choke
And then forget about the yellow from the beckoning man
Who make you take another one and make a mock of your plan
Bungalay, bungalow
Make up your mind and tell me no
[Breakdown]
Well it's nine o'clock and it's getting dark
And the sun is falling from the sky
I've never left so early
And you may wonder why
[Verse 3]
Tomorrow morning on the 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?
This banana for you
