I tripped and stumbled over my big feet
While walking down a very crowded street.
With laughter I arose
Assumed a dancing pose
Then tripped the light fandango really neat.
Witch in White Sharkskin
They criticize sharkskin as exotic or tacky,
When, in fact, it’s common and fine as warp-knitted wool.
But it gets me reminiscing about what it is I’m missing.
What might possibly fill this dark abyss of mine?
It’s plain that I could sorely use some kind white witching,
That magic you wickedly practice, even just for auld lang syne.
Hey, hey, hey Latin cutie,
hot on the dance floor
come and let me dance with
you, I can feel the heat
radiating from your body
and Whoa I am mesmerized
GET FUNKY,GET FUNKY

Oh go, go, go and GET
FUNKY baby here on the
dance floor do that FANDANGO

Hey, hey, hey you Latin hottie
you, get down on your bad self-shake
It baby shake it, look, look
it looks just like jello on springs
oh baby let me touch it, let me
lick it, let me taste it oooh carumba
bon bon Louis and I don't need no
Spanish fly on the fly oh no 'cuz

Latin thing...
I can feel the heat radiating from
your body and I am mystified
GET FUNKY, GET FUNKY
GET FUNKY baby oh yi, yi, yi
Whoa work that FANDANGO

GET FUNKY, GET FUNKY
right here and now on the dance
floor, do that FANDANGO, work
that FANDANGO just like you
used to do in Rio, Rio De Janeiro
and GET FUNKY!
Everything’s a little worn
a little tired like a well loved bunny.
Androgyny’s the norm
no one flaunts their money.
Gnarled trees leap toward
a brilliant white sun
Christmas lights trickle
from the branches of everyone.
On flecked granite doorsteps
workers, beggars, bikers sprawl
behind barred windows
in flamboyant flower stalls.
Fast fingers caress keyboards
of Apple’s laptop best
Google’s employees await buses
all nattily dressed.
And the nighttime, the nighttime
when neon like fireflies bloom
that’s when those who are anyone
hoist mugs and sing tunes…
some chorizo tortilla
grilled asparagus
a spanish hot chocolate
ewe milk cheese forta
home made canas flakes
Rioja
Heh!
