Some people be like bananas
You have to peel them one
strip at a time. Once they are
Exposed, they are soft to the touch
They get all mushy
And go jump inna bowl
of cornflakes.
Some peoples have to use
Big bowls.
If you ignore bananas for a few days,
They get a freckle complexion
And will not have a conversation
With you
If you ignore peoples for a few days,
They will throw stuff at you.
Hard stuff
Like dem coconuts
Me? I wear a crash helmet and goggles!
You can hurt a banana with a coconut
You can’t hurt a coconut with a banana
Some people are like coconuts
They have dat hard head
You have to bust them real good
To get them to open up.—
Then you still have trouble
Extracting them from their shell.
If you send a monkey up a coconut
Tree for a banana…you are barking
up the wrong tree.
Nine times out of ten, they will
Bring you back a coconut.
If ever they should bring you
A banana from a coconut tree,
You should go take that test
That Mary Francis is passing around ....
