The tangomaniac

She was the daughter of the daughter of the daughter of the daughter of the daughter of
Someone very famous
 
She wasn't the duaghter of the vegetable seller
She wasn't the daughter of guys like you and me
She wasn't the daughter of good money
Even if maybe her great-grandson sweated
 
They called her the tangomaniac
'I go from milonga to milonga', she said
And when she took classes
She went from tutor to tutor
She was the daughter of...
 
She came from a fine family
From the fifth generation
She came from a good family
Of those you read about in the newspaper La Nación
She was the daughter of someone influential
 
I'm not a good boy
I'm more of a bad boy
But if you want it so much
I can be your glam boy
 
Hey, tangomaniac, tangomaniac
How much more do you want to spend?
Tangomaniac, tangomaniac
Buy us another round!
 
She was the daughter of...
 

Guacamole

Sitting on a bench
Waiting for the teco 1 guacamole
There´s meat with kidney beans, meat with kidney beans
Waiting for the sun to shine
Hoping for the chicken yakisoba 2
I hope there's some leftover, hope there's some leftover.
 
Oh girl 3, what are you doing, where do you go
Oh boy 4, I don´t know, just go already
Even when the bread 5 dips on a holey,
Your guacamole
 
Samaranch 6, Havelange 7 UEFA 8 FIFA 9,World Cup,
just like Queen Latifah
I hope she got some reefah 10
Solitaire, happiness, joy of life just' like a Lola 11
I hope she' there alone, hope she' there alone.
 
Your guacamole, your guacamole, oh yes boy
Please
 
Oh girl, what are you doing, where do you go
Oh boy, I don´t know, but there I´m going
Even when the bread dips on the marinade
Oh, milk coffe.
 
Let´s go eat at Beto´s, he made us guacamole.
Meat with kidney beans, meat with kidney beans.
Cuchufrito 12, french beans, hot tamales 13, marinaded trout
with milk coffee, with milk coffee.
 
Chimichurri 14, woosh-woosh with a bit of deng-a-deng 15, Caraguatatuba 16
and a caipiruva, and a caipiruva 17
A bit of lard, four spoonfuls of breadcrumbs 18
Cheese with raspberry, set the table now.
 
(Please set the table.
Stay calm, there´s enough for everyone)
 
(Sit down, guys)
 
And two, and three, and four.
 
Boca Jrs, River Plate 19
Chacarita 20, Diego Maradona.
Diego has no mercy, Diego has no mercy.
Solitaire, happiness, joy of life just' like a Lola.
I hope she' there alone, hope she' there alone.
 
Oh girl, what are you doing, where do you go
Oh boy, I don´t know, but there I´m going
 
Even when the bread dips on a lilly
Don't be so silly.
 
Your guacamole, your guacamole, yes boy.
Please.
 
Guacamole!
 

• 1. Unsure about this. Might refer to the city of Teco in Michoacán del Campo, Mexico
• 2. Fried noodles with chicken
• 3. Literaly 'mommy', but term usually employed to woo women of any age
• 4. Same as the previous verse for the opposite sex
• 5. If this word even exists, it´s too local for me. I guess it´s a play on words with 'pan', bread and 'pompa' (bubble, but also a term for the backside) or just mimicking a drumming sound
• 6. Juan Antonio Samaranch, president of the International Olympic Commitee from 1980 to 2001
• 7. Joao Havelange, FIFA President from 1974 to 1988
• 8. Union of European Football Associations
• 9. Fédération Internationale de Football Association, the ruling body actually in charge of th World Cup. UEFA was thrown in for rhythm and rhyme reasons

The End of the Party

It's over now
People are leaving
I already know what you're going to tell me
That I mustn't cry
That these things happen
I always cried, so as not to laugh
I don't have any memory space left, though
And there isn't any photo that I'd like to delete
 
It's over now
The end of the party's here
And the ever-frightening 'What-will-people-say?' is born
If she left with him
If she left with her
The ones who didn't give in
Will do it later
Because life is a slow-moving orgy
The best must be yet to come
 
It's over now
People are leaving now
I already know what you're going to tell me
That I mustn't cry
That these things happen
I always cried, so as not to laugh
I don't have any memory space left, though
And there isn't any photo that I'd like to delete
