Banana - Jin Hackman

(Verse One)
 Don’t you ever tell a brother to chill
 A Chinese who can’t speak Chinese? Yo, the struggle is real
 Some try to instill a sense of guilt in me
 And some wouldn’t believe it so they start grilling me
 Like “Didn’t your dad teach you a lil Cantonese?”
 Nope, he wasn’t around much to begin with, he worked overseas
 Now I need my subtitles hardcoded bro
 To understand Donnie Yen when he’s not throwing blows
 English my first language, BM my second
 Learned a little Hokkien but not good enough I reckon
 Guess I fit the mold but it’s actually embarrassing
 To not know what it’s like to “press 3” for Mandarin

(Chorus x2)
 BA NA NA NA BA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA (yellow on the outside, white on the inside)
 BA NA NA NA BA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA (yellow on the outside, white on the inside)
 BA NA NA NA BA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA (yellow on the outside white on the inside)
 BANANA BANANA NA NA NA UH UH

(Verse Two)
 You know you’re grandma’s worst grandson
 When you can’t carry a convo beyond “cho san”
 It’s no fun acting like a rap superstar
 If you can’t explain to the mechanic what’s up with your car
 I keep getting hustled by my fellow Chinamen
 Maybe cause they don’t see me as one of them
 But calling me anything else is downright stupid
 I’m as Chinese as you and I got my eyes to prove it
 Sorry if my accent is leaving you perplexed
 At least I can order my dim sum perfect Har gao, siu mai, lo mai gai Yi tan, cha siu bao, homaigawd

(Chorus x2)

(Bridge x2)
 Hey man
 Don’t get it misconstrued
 I ain’t trying to be rude
 I ain’t trying to be rude
 But the words coming outta your mouth
 They got me confused
 Yeah, they got me confused

(Chorus x2)

(Scratches)
