Oh Chiquita, banana of renown,
In court, your darker deeds have now been found,
For in Colombia's war, a terror sowed,
With lives lost, your complicity showed.

Your sweet fruit hides a bitter truth,
Funding terror in its ruthless youth,
In US courts, justice has its say,
For those lost in this deadly fray.

Banana brand now tarnished, besmirched,
Liable for the lives that were mercilessly perched,
Colombian Civil War's painful toll,
Chiquita's involvement takes its toll.
