I am sure it is written in the rule book that ALL monkeys must like bananananananaqnananas oops, there I go, again!!. Those that don't like bananananananas, are shifted to the chimpanzee category, as they think for themselves!!
Folk Song written By: Frank Silver and Irving Cohn (1923)
There's a fruit store on our street It's run by a Greek. And he keeps good things to eat But you should hear him speak!
When you ask him anything, he never answers "no". He just "yes"es you to death, And as he takes your dough, he tells you...
"Yes! We have no bananas We have no bananas today!! We have string beans and onions, cabBAges and scallions And all kinds of fruit and say We have an old fashioned toMAHto A Long Island poTAHto, but
Yes! We have no bananas We have no bananas today!"
Business got so good for him that he wrote home today, "Send me Pete and Nick and Jim; I need help right away." When he got them in the store, there was fun, you bet. Someone asked for "sparrow grass" and then the whole quartet All answered:
"Yes, we have no bananas We have-a no bananas today. Just try those coconuts Those wall-nuts and doughnuts There ain't many nuts like they. We'll sell you two kinds of red herring, Dark brown, and ball-bearing. But yes, we have no bananas We have no bananas today."

Never liked them Trish...I remember my Mother telling me, a story about when I was a wee boy. Apparently I had gone home and asked for a banana but she refused to give me one, saying, "you dont like bananas, your up to something." She was right, I was going to put the banana skin on a lads doorstep because he had been bullying me. However, she did agree to give me a jam butty. Those things can be quite slippy you know!!!

I´ll bet that jam butty didn´t make it anywhere near the doorstep....
