Jack Johnson
Banana Pancakes
[Intro]
Well, can't you see that it's just raining?
There ain't no need to go outside
[Verse 1]
But baby you hardly even notice
When I try to show you this
Song, it's meant to keep you
From doing what you're supposed to
Like waking up too early
Maybe we could sleep in
Make you banana pancakes
Pretend like it's the weekend now
[Chorus]
And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just raining?
There ain't no need to go outside
[Verse 2]
But just maybe
Hala ka ukulele
Mama made a baby
Really don't mind the practice
'Cause you're my little lady
Lady, lady, love me
'Cause I love to lay here lazy
We could close the curtains
Pretend like there's no world outside
[Chorus]
And we could pretend it all the time
And can't you see that it's just raining?
There ain't no need to go outside
[Post-Chorus]
Ain't no need, ain't no need
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
Can't you see? Can't you see?
Rain all day and I don't mind
[Bridge]
But the telephone singing, ringing, it's too early, don't pick it up
We don't need to
We got everything we need right here and everything we need is enough
Just so easy when
The whole world fits inside of your arms
Do we really need to pay attention to the alarm?
Wake up slow, mmm-mmm, wake up slow
[Verse 1]
But baby
You hardly even notice
When I try to show you this
Song, it's meant to keep you
From doing what you're supposed to
Like waking up too early
Maybe we could sleep in
Make you banana pancakes
Pretend like it's the weekend now
[Chorus]
And we could pretend it all the time
Can't you see that it's just raining?
There ain't no need to go outside
[Outro]
Ain't no need, ain't no need
Rain all day and I really, really, really don't mind
Can't you see? Can't you see?
We've got to wake up slow
