I'm just mad about saffron
A-saffron's mad about me
I'm-a just mad about saffron
She's just mad about me

They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow

I'm just mad about fourteen
Fourteen's mad about me
I'm-a just mad about a-fourteen
A-she's just mad about me

They call me mellow yellow
They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow

Born-a high forever to fly
A-wind-a velocity nil
Born-a high forever to fly
If you want, your cup I will fill

They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow

So mellow yellow

Electrical banana
Is gonna be a sudden craze
Electrical banana
Is bound to be the very next phase

They call it mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow

Yes, saffron, yeah
I'm just-a mad about her
I'm-a just-a mad about-a saffron
She's just mad about me

They call it mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow ''(Quite rightly)''
They call me mellow yellow

Oh, so yellow
Oh, so mellow

And my 60's parents wondered about the kids they heard from tv smoking and snorting all sorts of things and wondered why? Perhaps the banana hoax was started by Miss Chiquita to get more bananas sold and eaten? She'd have been 20 in 1964... that's about the right age.. Miss Chiquita - The History circa a 1944 creation
