lyrics

You can call me Alberto
You can call me Miguel
You better call me the only one
Cause I ain’t no second banana, girl

Dancing through the garden
Drinking a Singapore sling
Got my head in the clouds
And there’s sun in the sky
My lover’s her dancing with me

You can call me Jorge
You can call me Juan
You better call me the only one
Cause I ain’t no second banana, girl

Where you been
Where you been all my life
Or better yet, where were you
Where were you just last night

You can call me Poppy
You can call me Manuel
You better call me the only one
Cause I ain’t no second banana, girl

Alright, I know we haven’t known each other that long
And, I realize there a language barrier
And possibly some cultural differences
But baby tell me love finds a way

I ain’t no second banana, I ain’t no third wheel
I ain’t no second banana, I ain’t no third wheel
I ain’t no second banana, I ain’t no third wheel
I ain’t no second banana, I ain’t no second banana, girl
