Banana Chips by Shonen Knife from Happy Hour

It's 1 am here in the Philippines, but am still craving for food, actually craving for some chips. Sadly, I don't have some on hand so I guess I'll just have to with some food music or some music about food (whichever works for you!)

The song that I chose is called "Banana Chips" by Shonen Knife. It's a cute piece taking about banana chips (duh!) It has a catchy guitar strumming and drum beating combo. It has me now in LSS (last song syndrome) mode as I can't get the tune out of my head.

Here are the lyrics of the song:

Banana chips for you!
Banana chips for me!
In the afternoon, banana chips and tea.
Sliced bananas lightly fried with coconut oil.
Mmmm... they're just a little bit sweet.
Banana chips, banana chips,
Banana chips, banana chips,
Banana chips, banana chips,
Banana chips, Oh yeah!

Banana chips for me!

Banana chips for you!

I can never get enough banana chips, it's true.

O I really like to eat...

Love their sweet smell of coconut oil.

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, Oh yeah!

Banana chips for you!

Banana chips for me!

In the afternoon, banana chips and tea.

It reminds me of the sunshine on the tropical paradise isle.

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, Oh yeah!

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, banana chips,

Banana chips, Oh yeah!
