| Smokin' banana peels, see how it feels |
| Living is easy with ice cubes |
| The world is swimmin' with electric eels |
| Talk seriously to me brother |
| Smokin' banana peels, savin' the seals |
| There are four me's living all together |
| You've got to take life serially |
| Smokin' banana peels in between meals |
| I was all pumped up about the iron |
| Let's all pray get down and kneel |
| Smokin' banana peels sound like this |

| Smokin' banana peels, nothin' is real |
| Mites are living in your eyelashes |
| People are makin' important deals |
| They're my fingernails and I'm keeping em |
| Smokin' banana peels, savin' the seals |
| Up and down between your heels |
| Dip your breasts in shimmering lip balm |
| Take Elvis for walk and shut up |
