Banana Coco

Artist: Liza Da Costa

Album: Dance Charts Step 2

Song Length: 3:20

George's Thoughts: Liza Da Costa's lyrics are terrific in this interesting song about a banana-coconut flavored beverage. Lots of fun. Released originally on her first album of the same name after she left the group Captain Jack, this song became a top hit in many European countries. Very Caribbean in styling and well suited to the Jive. I haven't heard the original song so I don't know if it's as suitable for dancing as this strict-tempo reproduction.

Song Lyrics:

Banana Coco ain't Coca Cola
Banana Coco ain't Tequila
Banana coco ain't Coca Cola
Banana Coco ain't Battida
Everybody wanna party - oh yeah yeah yeah

We need a shaker or a blender
to mix a drink you will remember.
Straight up the mix with Cherry Cola
with cosmic ice cube spending soda
Banana, coco, mango, kiwi, maracuja,
jump the candle flash with cocktail drinks in summer.

Banana Coco ain't Coca Cola
Banana Coco ain't Tequila
Banana coco ain't Coca Cola
Banana Coco ain't Battida
Everybody wanna party - oh yeah yeah yeah

A dash of coco and Kalua
Banana cream and orange juice.
Uh keep it cool and take Tequila
Yes shake it well, enjoy la vida.
Banana, coco, mango, kiwi, maracuja,
jump the candle flash with cocktail drinks in summer.

Banana Coco ain't Coca Cola
Banana Coco ain't Tequila
Banana coco ain't Coca Cola
Banana Coco ain't Battida
Everybody wanna party - oh yeah yeah yeah
