[Verse 1]
[D]Ladies and Gentlemen, Colonel PT Chester Whitmore is proud to present
[A]Bung Vulchungo and the Zimbabwe Songbirds!
[D]Do you see banana man
[A]Hopping over on the white-hot sand
[D]Here he come with some for me
[G]Freshly taken from banana tree (one, two, three, four)
[D]Banana man, me want a ton
[A]Gimme double and a bonus one
[D]Gimme more for all me friends
[G]This banana flow will never end
[D]Do you [A]want a banana?
[D]Peel it down and go, mm-mm-mm-mm
[A]Do you [D]want a banana?
[A]This banana for you
[D]Tonight, we dance [G]around the flame
[D]Then we get to play spirit game
[A]Spirit names, we [D]shout out loud
[G]Shake the thunder from the spirit cloud
[D]All the songbirds [A]in the tree
[D]Chant a tune to let the spirits free
[A]Then we see [D]them in the night
[A]Spirits jumping by fire light
[D]Do you want a banana? [A](Do you want a banana?)
[D]Peel it down and go, mm-mm-mm-mm
[A]Do you want a banana? [D](Do you want a banana?)
[A]This banana for you
[D]♪
[A]Look you, you [D]too uptight, you know
[A]You could laugh and kick [D]it back and go (wee!)
[A]But without a rhythm or a rhyme
[D]You do not [A]banana all the time
[D]Fly away from city on the run
[A]Try to make [D]a little fun
[A]♪
[D]Look you, come [A]to the bungalow
[D]African't you tell me told you so
[A]Don't you love the [D]bumping of the drum?
[A]Make you shake until the bum go numb
[D]Let de bongo play [A]you 'til you drop
[D]This banana never stop (never stop, never stop)
[A]Forget all your troubles [D]and go with the flow
[A]Forget about whatever you may never know
[D]Like whether whatever you are [B7]doing is whatever you should
[Em]And whether anything you do is ever any good
[A]And then forget about banana [Gm]when it stick in your throat
[D]And when it make you wanna bellow, but you stuck in a choke
[Em]And forget about the [A]yellow from the beckoning man
[D]Who make you take another one and make a mock of your plan
[B7]♪
[Em]Bungalay, bungalow
[A]Make up your mind [Gm]and tell me no
[D](Shh)
[Em]Well, it's nine o'clock, [A]and it's getting dark
[D]And the sun is [A]falling from the sky
[D]I've never left so early, [G]and you may wonder why
[D]♪
[A]Tomorrow morning [D]on the plane
[G]No banana make you go insane
[D]Floating back [A]to busy town
[D]No banana make you want to frown
[Eb]Do you want a banana? [D](Do you want a banana)
[Eb]Peel it down and go, mm-mm-mm-mm
[D]Do you [Eb]want a banana?
[Dmaj7]This banana for... you
