CW: Bananas Musical Songs With Lyrics And All.
(first on https://kaka.farm/posts/2025/12/24/bananas-musical-songs-with-lyrics-and-all.html).
- 1919-??-?? - Yes We Have No Bananas by Green Brother's Novelty Band.
- 1922-06-?? - I've Got The Yes We Have No Bananas Blues by Billy West; Brown; Hanley; King.
- 1936-??-?? - I Like Bananas Because They have No Bones by George Elrick.
- 1949-??-?? - Yes, We Have Not Bananas performed by Louis Prima & His Orchestra composed and written by Irving Conn and Frank Silver.
It may or may not be a euphemism for some thing or another, but I cannot quite make a connection yet.
Also, first time I see an Elrick outside of fiction.
