I Ate A Fat Black Cat

I ate a black cat

But, first I had to kill it with a bat

In Fact, the cat was black and fat

So, I ate a fat black cat

It tasted worst than a rotten vat

And, than a girl I met in a local chat

So, I ate a fat black cat that I killed with a bat

It was easier then pulling a rabbit out of a hat

If you ask me, I would rather eat a rat

But, the rat belongs to Pat

So, I wouldn’t betray Pat because he lent me the bat I used to kill the cat

So, I ate a fat black cat that I killed with a bat that belongs to Pat

Anyways, nevermind that

I don’t know how to dance so I sat when I was invited to a party thrown by Pat

So, I ate a fat black cat that I killed with a bat that belongs to Pat who invited to the party where I sat and I sow his rat

Sometimes I wish I was an acrobat

Or a fat diplomat who doesn’t eat cat

Or bureaucrat but not a Democrat

Because I don’t want anybody to think that I’m suggesting that a Democrat ate the cat that ate Pat’s rat that was invited to the party where I sat

So, to finalize this tit-for-tat

I lost track of what I was aiming at

So, I ate Pat who blamed for eating his rat that was eaten in the party where I sat. Because I’m a Democrat, I ate a fat black cat who acused me of eating his rat that dances like an acrobat but tasted more rotten than a rotten vat

So, I ate a fat black cat named Pat that I killed with a bat in the party where I sat

Dios Te Guarde Mujer Consentida

Dios te guarde mujer consentida

Donde quieras que tu vayas, recuerda siempre que te llevaste mi vida

Donde quieras que yo vaya, llevare siempre el alma herida

No he podido dormir desde tu partida

¿Donde estas mi linda munequita ingreida?

Yo se que tu siempre estuviste prohibida

Pero, sin tus besos, yo no encuentro la salida

¿Donde estas mi linda munequita ingreida?

Tu sabes bien que tu eres mi guarida

Un Buen Amigo

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Jamas le niegas tu abrigo a un mendigo

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Yo aprendi a querer contigo

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Te aprecio mas que a un hermano y pongo a dios como testigo

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Yo quiero ser como tu, pero, nunca lo consigo

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Por eso te venero y te bendigo

Tu si sabes estrechar fuerte me mano

Tu me salvaste cuando me ahogaba en el pantano

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Te quiero mas de lo que yo te he dicho

Mi amor por ti nunca ha sido un capricho

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Me das un abrazo cuando yo me siento triste

No he encontrado nadie como tu desde el dia que te fuiste

Tu si sabes lo que es ser un buen amigo

Those Big Black Eyes

When I woke up in your arms, I didn’t know what to say

My heart was beating so hard that I thought I was going to die

God has given me the privilege of having you by my side

You are the love with whom I have always dreamed

I don’t care what they say but I’m in love

Those big black eyes, they have me captivated

You don’t know how I feel when I steal a kiss from you!

Suddenly a little heat runs through my bones

I love you to excess

Without a doubt, meeting you was my best success

Your love erased all traces of my past

You are my refuge when I am tired

How lucky am I because I am to your liking!

If I don’t have you, I feel like I’ve failed

I thank you sweet darling for all the love you have given me
