Star-Spangled Banana Lyrics

Hot diggity dog

As American as mom’s apple pie

Another dog day afternoon

Worth its weight in gold

Don’t take any wooden nickels

About as real as a $3 bill

Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth

That’s a horse of a different color                                                

Don’t change horses in midstream

Same old soap

We’re in the soup

Life is a three-legged sack race                                                   

Splitting hairs

Two wrongs do not make a right

Star-spangled banana

Who is buried in Grant’s tomb?

Don’t kid yourself

You shine up like a new penny

A penny saved is a penny earned

Let’s not beat around the bush

If it’s brown, flush it down; if it’s yellow, let it mellow

Bite the bullet                                                                                 

Better late than never

No pain, no gain

A dime a dozen

Things get out of hand

Give them the benefit of the doubt

Hang in there

Pull yourself together

Don’t miss the boat

Get on the ball

It’s not rocket science

Top 40 radio, all the hits, all the time!

News and weather on the hour

The best of both worlds

Time flies when you’re having fun

Tell me about it

Don’t make matters worse

Under the weather

Your guess is as good as mine

The gang who couldn’t shoot straight

You can say that again

Does Macy’s tell Gimbel’s?                                                           

Don’t judge a book by its cover

No news is good news

Speaking of the devil

The devil is in the details

Fuhgeddaboudit                                                                             

He who laughs last, laughs best

That’s the last straw
