Jan Banana

Say, do you remember that day, when we went downtown?
It was you and me, Jan, and you copped a banana.
Then you threw away the peel and I came after and everything went crazy,
I slipped on your peel and knocked my head on the pavement.
 
You just ran away and I sat there like an idiot,
and around me people stood and watched, yes, laughed is what they did.
I felt so stupid and the coppers thought that I was weird,
they took me to the pokey1, where I had to sit until they called half of my relatives.
 
And since that day your name is Jan Banana.
Since we were downtown and you bought your stupid banana.
And since that day your name is Jan Banana.
Jan, Jan, Jan, Jan Banana.

That Surely Can't Be Dangerous

Your name is Mister Groovy, your job's being a hallucination1,
you work at a mini trip and you blaze up without warning.
And you, you just dig it as best as you can, it ain't as cool 'til the day you stand there.
A kick here, a kick there, surely can't be dangerous?
To dig it, to groove on, surely can't be dangerous?
E-je-je-je-je-je-je
 
Where you see reality and the poison runs out, and everything's fucked up on this earth where you're born,
then, you fall down into the pockets of a dealer downtown, he shouts out his price with the same old line.
A tenner2 for this can't be expensive, right?
Dangerous, shmangerous, well, you can scratch that.
Doing something nice surely can't be dangerous?
 
Think very carefully before you're gone and it's too late to take yourself out.
 
Then you caught your reason in a little box and put it back in it's correct spot,
your life was filled with joy, power, and energy, and you could grasp your own initiative.
To break up with the others surely can't be dangerous?
To do something else surely can't be dangerous?
To break up with the others surely can't be dangerous?
