God's Great Banana Skin Lyrics

Go down my road running just as fast as I can
Nobody knows which is the better way
But when that man in the sky points his finger at you
Don't you ever think no-one's better than you

God's great banana skin
Don't you laugh at nobody
You'll let the bad luck in
God's great banana skin
It's the way that it gets you
With every day good luck comes in the strangest of ways
Just keep your head down don't listen what your ego will say
'Cos when that man in the sky points his finger at you
Don't you ever think no-one's better than you

God's great banana skin
Don't you laugh at nobody
You'll let the bad luck in
God's great banana skin
It's the way that it gets you

God's great banana skin
God's great banana skin

When that man in the sky points his finger at you
Don't you ever think no-one's better than you
Don't you ever think no-one's better than you

God's great banana skin
Gonna get you
God's great banana skin

If God has picked you to slip on that banana skin then you're the man! Don't think that anybody else is better than you - you are the one who was picked.

I read an interview with Chris somewhere where mentioned this song. Apparantly his daughter asked how you slip on a banana skin - which prompted Chris thinking and the song was born.

Just a simple song about how you should never treat people like there are worth less than you and that’s always gonna be someone bigger and better than you and that’s when people slip up( on God’s banana skin) when they think that there isn’t. Great song from rea
