lyrics:
(guitar break)
Sancho brought a message from the fat man
sorry boy to leave you high and dry
but I went to see my Mom in Ensinada
and I left a little something to help the time go by
just a little something to help to keep you high
-bananas and blow (oh oh)
-bananas and blow-oh (bananas and blow-oh)
-stuck in my cabana, living on bananas and blow
(guitar break)
well the rainy season reminds me of Maria
the way she danced, the colour of her hair
but now I'm locked in a stall inside of the cantina
eating the bananas and the cocaine off the mirror
looking for a ticket to take me away from here
-bananas and blow (oh oh)
-bananas and blow-oh (bananas and blow-oh)
-stuck in my cabana, living on bananas and blow
-bananas and blow (oh oh)
-bananas and blow-oh (bananas and blow-oh)
-stuck in my cabana, living on bananas and blow
(guitar solo)
-bananas and blow (oh oh)
-bananas and blow-oh (bananas and blow-oh)
-stuck in my cabana, living on bananas and blow
-bananas and blow (oh oh)
-oh, bananas and blow-oh (bananas and blow-oh)
-I'm stuck in my cabana, living on bananas and blow
finish on Em

| This song is no deeper or meaningful than this dude Sancho leaving this other dude some coke and a buncha bananas in the cabin...and it's fuckin' hilarious, especially the sing songy chorus! | |
