When I woke up this morning I had the blues
I Can’t remember last night as everyday about that time
Let me show you where I work in a 5 stars restaurant, owned by the king
Where I have to play those songs over and over and over
They say “With your Mexican songs everything tastes more spicy arriba!
I was born in Luxembourg the spiciest thing I ever ate was that creamy cheese with coffee
Ok let’s have a little roll and rock burger
You are here to make them eat, also keine lieben sung
Ok this is my band they all are Germans that’s right
Together we used to play Boogie woogie, in a band called “bang bang bang”
I’m sorry but we really have to play now, we really have to play now
Ok folks put on your moustaches… Natürlich… Arriba…
“We can cook another song for you, hope you won’t mind”
They say “Why don’t you play the one we like, the one you played yesterday, the one that goes mexico, mexico”
Ok it’s half past six, it’s really time to go to bed now
Sorry, to interrupt you, but you don’t hear anything?
It’s this song again, are you sure you don’t hear anything?
You know the one that goes dadadadididoudouda
Every night when I go to bed a neighbour plays this for me
No I’m sure it’s real, now listen, dadadadidididoudouda
I don’t know why they play that funny joke on me Arriba
Listen I’m not nuts, that’s not only in my head
Listen again, dadadadididoudouda
