Lyrics

I was not born in Buenos Aires
My father came from Rovno Gubernya
But now I'm here, I'm dancing a tango
Di de di de di de di!
I am easily assimilated
I am so easily assimilated
I never learned a human language
My father spoke a High Middle Polish
In one half-hour I'm talking in Spanish
Por favor! Toreador!
I am easily assimilated
I am so easily assimilated
It's easy, it's ever so easy
I'm Spanish, I'm suddenly Spanish
And you must be Spanish, too
Do like the natives do
These days you have to be
In the majority
Tus labios rubí
Dos rosas que se abren a mí
Conquistan mi corazón
Y sólo con
Una canción
Mis labios rubí
Dreiviertel Takt, mon très cher ami
Oui oui, sí sí, ja ja ja, yes yes, da da
Je ne sais quoi
Me muero, me sale una hernia!
A long way from Rovno Gubernya!
Mis/Tus labios rubí
Dos rosas que se abren a mí
Conquistan mi corazón
Y sólo con
Una divina canción
De mis/tus labios rubí
Rubí! Rubí!
Hey!
Me muero, me sale una hernia
Me muero, me sale una hernia
Hey!
