Banana Drama 02:37
Oh a monkey I can see Went scrambling up a tree, He grabbed a bunch of bananas And threw them down to me And when they were up they were up, And when they were down they were down, And when they were only half way up. They were neither up nor down. I peeled one with my paw And munched it with my jaw. I finished up that banana And the skin went on the floor! And when it was up it was up, And when it was down it was down, And when it was only half way up. It was neither up nor down. That monkey from verse 1 To join in all the fun, He slipped on the banana skin And landed on his bum! And when he was up he was up, And when he was down he was down, And when he was only half way up. He was neither up nor down.
