Funniest Gig Songtext
von Manfred Mann

Surely, strawberries cannot be alive
And bananas can′t believe my eyes
This is the funniest gig we've ever done
With strawberries and bananas, what sort of songs are sung?

Chocolate soldiers march us onto stage
Pluck us up to play inside a cage
This is the funniest gig we′ve ever done
With strawberries and bananas, what sort of songs are sung?

Am I asleep?
Am I asleep and dreaming?
Am I asleep and dreaming?


Suddenly the whole place falls apart
Jars of jam are leaving on a cart
This is the funniest gig we've ever done
And we are wishing that we had never come

Am I asleep?
Am I asleep and dreaming?
Am I asleep and dreaming?

This
Ha! Ha! said the clown
Ha! Ha! said the clown
Ha! Ha! said the clown
Is it bringing you down, have you lost?

And what's new dad? (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
What′s new dad? (La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)

This is the funniest gig we′ve ever done
With strawberries and bananas, what sort of songs are sung?


Chocolate soldiers march us onto stage
Pluck us up to play inside a cage
This is the funniest gig we've ever done
