Spanglish Love-Lyrics
Well I metcha at fiesta
You called me senorita
Camelita, duclecita,
that means sweet thang
chitty chitty bang bang
Biddy biddy bum bum
Let’s keep it fun
while we’re still young
singing like selena in the time of her prima
biddy biddy bum bum
‘till the setting suns done
Boy your mi campanero
in an oversized sombrero
lead me to the dance flo’
Oh Oh Oh es so romantico
when we do the tango
I felt you sqeeze my mango
Don’t feel you have to let go
por que no puedo resistir, my dear
when you draw me near
Singing to Selena en the time of her prima
Biddy buddy bum bum
‘till the setting suns done
having fun while we’re still young
Loosen your your corbata
sip that sweet horchata
its all hakuna matata
dancing to the cha cha
chimmy chimmy changa
biddy biddy bonga
Senorita Carmelita la Gringa from Goleta
singing like selena in the time of her prima
biddy biddy bum bum
Get undone while were still young
‘till the morning’s suns up

All of Us
This is for all you lovers out there,
This is for all who have hate.
This goes out to all who give
and can bear
to give more than they can take
I’m pouring out my heart,
Baby.
Bleeding for the world
a lifetime’s work of art.
Maybe.
A story to be told
Someones got to give it a go
let their fellow earthlings know
that from time to time
we all lose our minds
and can’t find a place to call home
Although we are running
with no where to go
Your never alone, baby
never alone
perhaps the fact that
6 billion feel the same way
on days like today
can atone
and you’ll know
that your never alone, love
never alone.
Perhaps you’ll remember
that night in september
or november december
whatever is was...
You had no worries
sitting with friends
the snow came in flurries
and you felt in the end
perhaps life was fair
and drank in deep gulps
of cold winter air.
Darling I’ve laid it all
out here in these words
for the long hall
I hope, and I pray,
but in the end these are
still just words and
I fear, my Dear,
that they may not be heard.
You see,
baby
in trying times
these rhyming lines
may lose their strength
in literary confines.
Well, in the end and all and all
When push comes to shove
and fate comes to call
all I can do is
take a deep breath
unswallow my pride
and say four comforting words
to myself in a molasses sigh.
At least I’ve tried.
At least I’ve tried.
Pearl
Oh isn’t she a beauty?
Oh isn’t she something?
She whistles and skips,
gives generous tips,
her pout pleasant with eyes twinkling.
She learns from the old
and teaches the young,
saves vagrants from cold
with the scarves she knits them.
And when she stays home
on a Saturday night,
she’s content all alone,
a lovely solitary sight.
There’s room in her heart
for mother brother sister and pop
with a vacancy held
for the family she’ll start.
On the day that you find
that this sprite I’ve become
is exactly the kind
you could tenderly love.
Venom
Why can’t you be a diamond snake
and have a tattle rattle
a poison indicator
to know you’ll make me ache?
Cause Baby, I’m a baby
a little dolly lady,
and I haven’t got the slightest clue
of how to stay away from you
You’ve got me in you clutches
my faces betrayed by blushes
You had me with your touches,
fangs are clenched, my heart gushes.
So tell me now, handsome devil,
if the pain is worth the game.
Can I tame this rousing rebel,
or would it be in vain?
If what is wrong is truly wrong,
why does it feel so right?
So I’ll hang on, just sing this song,
and squeeze with all my might.
