Monty Harper - I Go Bananas

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1033536
verse 1
When a certain sweet smell blows in on the breeze
I lift my head and bend my knees
Then i leap up like a lemur, searching high among the trees
I swing by my toes. i follow my nose 'til i find that fruity treat
I pick a bunch to begin, then peel back the skin, and...

chorus
I go bananas for bananas. bananas give me energy
Whenever i eat bananas i go bananas
I go bananas for bananas. bananas give me energy
Whenever i eat bananas i go bananas

(swing your arms. wiggle your tail
Dance like a monkey. follow the banana trail.)

verse 2
There's a cеrtain sweet taste i find appealing
When i gеt it it's a happy, silly feeling
And it makes me wanna jump around like a chimpanzee
'til my mother hits the ceiling
And every morning she gives me warning. she makes me take a seat
She says, "your fate will follow from what you swallow, after all, you are..."

chorus
Bananas for bananas. bananas give me energy
Whenever i eat bananas i go bananas
I go bananas for bananas. bananas give me energy
Whenever i eat bananas i go bananas

(clap your hands. scratch a flea
Dance like a monkey, climbing a banana tree.)

bridge
Everybody jump! (i go bananas)
Everybody spin! (i go bananas)
Now can't you just feel that jungle beat getting under your skin? (i go bananas)
Everybody stomp! (i go bananas)
Everybody twist! (i go bananas)
Once you unpeel that jungle beat your feet can't resist! (i go bananas)

pre-chorus
There's only one word to describe this state of mind
So grab a taste of a tropical place and go - bananas!

chorus
I go bananas for bananas. bananas give me energy
Whenever i eat bananas i go bananas

I go bananas (scat)

outro
Swing your arms. wiggle your tail
Dance like a monkey. follow the banana trail
Clap your hands. scratch a flea
Dance like a monkey, climbing a banana tree
Now flex your muscles. now beat your chest
Dance like a monkey, eating what a monkey likes best!

I go bananas! oooh!
