“There’s Always Money in the Banana Stand” Scene Lyrics
George Sr.: You what?
Michael: Burned it right down to the ground.
George Sr.: Are you crazy? There was money in that banana stand.
Michael: Well, it's all gone now, Dad, and it was my decision. So the next time you want to have a little power struggle, just remember that you're playing with fire.
George Sr.: There was $250,000 lining the walls of the banana stand.
Michael: What?
George Sr.: Cash, Michael.
Michael: Why didn't you tell me that?
George Sr.: How much clearer can I say, "THERE'S ALWAYS MONEY IN THE BANANA STAND"?
Prison Guard: NO TOUCHING!
George Sr.: NO TOUCHING!
Prison Guard: NO TOUCHING!
George Sr.: NO TOUCHING!
Michael: Burned it right down to the ground.
George Sr.: Are you crazy? There was money in that banana stand.
Michael: Well, it's all gone now, Dad, and it was my decision. So the next time you want to have a little power struggle, just remember that you're playing with fire.
