There's a woman who once defined passion
but when I met her my face became ashen
"You're Charo?" I spat
She said "My friends call me that...
but you can call me María del Rosario Pilar Martínez Molina Baeza Rasten "

Oh thats awful. Someone shoot me.

Since the last Greek theater opened
American culture has been gropin'
But we must be assertive
When all people have heard of
Is that live album by Josh Groban

As the Fashion Bug's era passes
And Organ World stops giving classes
Let's all raise a toast...
Which "Hut" do you like most?
The Pizza one or the Sunglasses?

To the freebie aisle, everyone tramples
To eat tiny caramel-dipped apples
We eat meat in cubes
Then squeeze cheese in tubes
There's no safeway to get all these samples

miro Charo en todos las mes
la línea siguiente es tres
apesto mi idioma
haga lo que toma
esto habría rimado en inglés

I went to buy groceries with Charo,
Noting that things were muy caro,
But the samples were free,
And we ate for no fee,
As if there were no tomorrow.

How could Oedipus still lose his poor eyes,
When the oracle already shared the surprise?
She warned: "you're fate is complex,
So just don't have sex,
For your mother will be your demise."

I was once shopping at Sam's.
I was there for a surplus of yams
She asked if I wanted a bite
I said that I might
after all I do enjoy deviled hams

If your sick of scripts that explode
You might consider some ancient Greek odes.
The characters collide
or commit patricide
within view of the Colossus of Rhodes.
