Banana Anthem

[Verse] In the morning light 'neath the skies so gray There stood a banana In its yellowy array A single fruit Among the leaves it sways Singing "Come Take a bite Let’s start the day." [Verse 2] Peeling back The world gets bright Sunlight dance on that edible delight Golden curves in the farmer’s sight A humble snack From dawn till night [Chorus] Banana Oh banana You’re the sun on my plate Banana Sweet banana From the jungles we celebrate Banana Dear banana In your yellow ways Banana My banana Filling up my days [Bridge] From the markets to the roadside stands Children clasp you tight in their little hands Stories whispered in the foreign lands About a banana’s magic Wild and grand [Verse 3] When we're weary Our spirits start to lag Banana’s there Perched high in a bag A comforting friend In the midday snag Bringing joy Like the old prayer flag [Chorus] Banana Oh banana You’re the sun on my plate Banana Sweet banana From the jungles we celebrate Banana Dear banana In your yellow ways Banana My banana Filling up my days
