One day, Humphrey and his pals were out playing, when suddenly, they all noticed Candu laying around, slowly walking through the trees, looking kind of glum.
"What's up with Candu over there?" Salty asked.
"I've never seen him look so down." added Shakey.
"Come on guys, maybe we can cheer him up." Humphrey suggested.
"That is one thing we're all good at." Lilly agreed.
Candu continued to walk through the forests alone, upset that his last hunt had been a disaster. Suddenly, he heard whispering over in a bush nearby. His instincts took over, and he snapped into a stance, ready to pounce if need be.
"Who's there?" He barked.
Humphrey popped out of the bushes, smiling at Candu.
"Oh, Humphrey. It's just you. How's it going?" Candu's sullenness returned.
Humphrey stood there and continued to stare at Candu, smiling still.
"Dude, you okay?" He still stared.
"Hey, you're kind of creeping me out. I'm really not in the mood for this. Will you just say something already!"
And with that, Humphrey started to sing.
Humphrey
Candu, you look quite down
With your big sad eyes
And your big fat frown.
The world doesn't have to be so gray.
Candu when your life's a mess
When your feeling blue
Or are in distress
I know what can wipe that sad away.
All you have to do is
Put a banana in your ear!
Candu
A banana in my ear?
Humphrey
Put a ripe banana into your favorite ear.
It's true
Candu
Says who?
Humphrey
So true.
Once it's in your gloom will disappear.
The bad in the world is hard to hear
When in your ear a banana cheers
So go and put a banana in your ear.
(Suddenly, Salty, Shakey, Mooch, Lilly, Reba and Janice all jump out from the bushes, all holding bananas, and start dancing around in a circle around Candu)
Omegas
Put a banana in your ear!
Candu
I'd rather keep my ear clear!
Omegas
You will never be happy
If you live your life in fear.
Humphrey
It's true.
Candu
Says you.
Humphrey
So true.
Omegas
When it's in the skies are bright and clear.
Oh, every day of every year
The sun shines bright in this big blue sphere
Humphrey
So go and put a banana in your
Earrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
The song appeared to be over, so Candu spoke up again, holding in his laughter. "Thanks guys. That made my day."
"Aw, you know. It's what we omegas do!" Shakey replied.
"I do have a question though, were did you guys get bananas?"
Author's Note: Just a little funny thing I wanted to do. I love this song so much, and it gets stuck in my head constantly. I'd like to apologize quick to all of my fans who are waiting for the next chapter of Humphrey's Bachelor Party, and all my friends who are awaiting reviews and other stories, Lancewing, Stormpelt's Rose, Chaoticlover, Heir-to-the-Throne, Justnick, Darkwolf, and ODST (sorry, I don't remember your full penname. Messages got deleted). You know I'm still here for you guys. I promise I'll get to all the stuff I promised you, writing those stories you requested and reading yours when I finish with school and finally have the time.
I also think it's cool that I added a story that features one of the background characters that were recently added to this category.
