I need not search for precious gold;
Of wealth, I have my share.
For with my eyes, I scan the skies
And find my fortune there.
A host of priceless dreams unfold
In songs that bluebirds sing.
The earth, the sea belong to me
Im richer than a king.
To add to things that money cannot buy,
An echo brings this very soft reply:
Yes! We have no bananas!
We have no bananas today!
Weve string beans and onions,
Cabrillas and scallions,
And all kinds of fruit and ****.
We have an old-fashioned tomato;
Long Island potato;
But, yes! We have no bananas!
We have no bananas today!
Yes, we no-nje gotta de bananos.
We no-nje gotta-da banano today, but one-a menoots!

But-a yes! We no-nje gotta the bananas. Hey, why you-on?

Yes! Ah, we have no bananas!

And kippers with zippers,
And pounds of devaluated pounds

A bagel thats-a done-a dipped in cement.
We got delicious knishes and kosher champagne
The kosher champagne theres two cents plain;
Pastrami, salami, matzos, and jam.
You should pardon the expression: We even got ham!
But yes, we aint got bananas.
We aint got bananas today.
Spike Jones (Lindley Armstrong Jones) è stato un musicista, attore e comico statunitense, famoso per il suo stile musicale innovativo e le performance esilaranti. Nato nel 1914 in California, Jones ha iniziato la sua carriera come batterista jazz negli anni '30. Nel 1940 ha formato la sua band, i City Slickers, che si è rapidamente affermata per l'uso di strumenti insoliti e arrangiamenti comici. La musica di Jones era caratterizzata da un mix di swing, jazz e musica classica, spesso con elementi surreali e umoristici. Tra le sue canzoni più famose ci sono "William Tell Overture", "The Clarinet Polka" e "You Always Hurt the One You Love". Jones ha anche recitato in alcuni film e programmi televisivi, dimostrando un talento versatile che lo ha reso una figura iconica della cultura americana del dopoguerra.
