The repeated refrain of "Banana banana banananana banana banana woman" creates a catchy and danceable rhythm that encourages listeners to "join the banana gang."

In the second verse, the lyrics become more explicitly sexual, with references to a woman who "rub[s] me banana" and "make[s] me banana jam." These lyrics are likely to be interpreted as humorous and playful rather than explicitly erotic, given the overall lighthearted tone of the song. The chorus continues to exhort listeners to "rise the banana man" and "rise the banana woman," turning the act of consuming bananas into a powerful and empowering cultural statement.
Overall, "Banana Woman" is a fun and upbeat song that celebrates the cultural significance of bananas and encourages listeners to embrace their own "banana-ness" with joy and enthusiasm.
