    I don't hear any similarity between this one and "Yes! We Have No Bananas" either

    An American novelty song from 1923; the most popular 1923 version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOrGCdUsFfM

    Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yes!_We_Have_No_Bananas
    "The term has been resurrected on many occasions, including during
    rationing in the *United Kingdom* in World War II, when the British
    government banned imports of bananas for five years. Shop owners put
    signs stating "Yes, we have no bananas" in their shop windows in
    keeping with the war spirit.
