Beautiful lyrics

Jose', can you see,
That my lawn's got the blight?
With the mowing you failed,
And the petunia's need weed-ing.

That's the lyrics, right?

Thanks for posting the lyrics

I get that it's the first song he played, but it's still kind of an odd song to sing to your dying father.

Reminds me of a story I heard where a bride sang Pearl Jam's "Betterman" to her new husband at their wedding because it was his favorite song....

listen to the lyrics , people!

I'm working on a translation by ear, don't want to cheat and Google the lyric.
so far I can tell the refrain repeated 3x:

No te preocupes si no te aprueban - don't worry if they don't approve of you
Cuando te critiquen tú solo di Soy Yo - when they criticize you just say I am Me

Checked that out a little while ago(the translation). I was not impressed. More enjoyable in a language i don't understand.

(edit) although now that i look again seems it may be a generated translation that isn't properly done.

Off the album Songs the Lord Taught Us, if you're interested in the Cramps. One of my favorite bands. They're obsessed with old rock n roll (southern American rock) and so they sound like the bands they're in love with and not the punk scene (CBGB's in New York) they came out of. Knowing that, the lyrics might make a whole lot more sense to you and not just be weird shit.

"One half hillbilly and one half punk.
The hottest thing from the north to come out of the south."

That was awesome.

The origin of a riff being "accidental" doesn't seem unusual -- people come up with riffs that get turned into earworm songs while just jamming / screwing around all the time.

But having the combination of sudden inspiration and accidental creation of the riff immediately followed by impromptu creation of the lyrics is really really cool.

Awesome sift, thanks!

I had totally forgotten about these guys @enoch! A buddy of mine was a DJ at an independent radio station when I was in High School and would make me some of the best mix tapes ever, and this song was on one of them. Holy hell, brought back a lot of memories of flipping through milk crates full of vinyl.

The lyrics are amazing, and it seems very fitting for the times we are currently living, so I need to *promote this one for sure!!

*promote These really should be the lyrics, then I may be able to tolerate watching some Disney movies.
