Japanese Banana

Ah, isn't it beautiful boys? The ancient land of Japan

Boy, sure is pretty, it sure is

I'm hungry, I want a banana

Stop it, Alvin

Now, there's famous Mt. Fujiyama

And look at the pretty cherry blossoms

This is a land that has everything, rice, fish, cherries

(Any bananas) no Alvin, they don't grow any

I want a banana

Good idea, let's have a banana

Yeah, banana (shh)

Boys, let's not make a fool of ourselves

Now, don't do anything to embarrass me, I'll never bring -

Wish we had a Japanese banana

It would be so very nice

Want a juicy Japanese banana

Don't want the cherries and rice

We can see they have so many things

And we are glad that it's so

But do they grow a Japanese banana?

That's what we like to know

Did you have to do that, Alvin? (What?)

You and your brothers, I mean

Singing about a banana like that

We're hungry for bananas

There are no bananas, there are plenty of cherries

Do you like cherries?

Well, as a matter of fact, yes I do, I like cherries

We like bananas

Alvin, I told you to be polite on this trip

Now, will you please calm down and stop this fool?

Wish we had a Japanese banana

It would be so very nice

Want a juicy Japanese banana

Don't want the cherries and rice

We can see they have so many things

And we are glad that it's so

But do they grow a Japanese banana?

That's what we like to know

That's the worst banjo player I've ever heard

That's not a banjo, Alvin, that's a shamisen

That's the worst shamisen player I've ever heard

Do they have any grapes here?
