Banana Co. by Radiohead
Chiquita Fined $25M For Terror Ties
The Bananagate article by NY Times
Oh, banana co.
We really love you and we need you
And oh, banana co.
We'd really love to believe you, but
Everything's underground
We gotta dig it up somehow
Yeah yeah
Oh, she said no go
She said she'd like to
She's seen you
But no, banana co.
She knows if you die then we all do
Everything's burning down
We gotta dig it up somehow
Yeah yeah
Everything's burning down
We gotta put it out somehow
Yeah yeah
As well as García Márquez's 100 years of Solitude, Radiohead decided to give us a hand protesting against an over-a-century Chiquita Banana exploitation. Can live without Chiquita but not without bananas, but there are parasites we are obliged to coexist with . The military juntas have been digging it up somehow, but for the US government it was more important to get our dictators right(literally right), as long as they had interests in the bag for them and their protected parasite, bananagates are not so underground.
