Lyrics to Charango
tell me pablo
what?s a charango
is it some kind of monkey
like a orangutan
and is it dangerous
well it might be
some kind of snake
that?s gonna bite me
is it a fruit
like a mango
or some kind of mexican food
like chimichanga
do you fry it
in garlic and oil
or do you wrap it
in aluminum foil
is it a dance
like a tango
or a brand of jeans
like wrangler
is it american made
or imported
you know what i make
can i afford it
it?s a town in colorado
no that?s durango
it?s that fella with a big nose
no that?s cyrano
de bergerac
well i don?t know tell me pablo
what?s a charango
and pablo says . . . a charango
is a strange looking thing
got the body of an armadillo
and the head of a mandolin
looks like road kill with strings
you play it real fast
with a pick
all you guitar players
gonna get your sorry asses kicked
it takes a real knack
and a supple wrist
to stick that armadillo back
in your chest
and pick it like this . . .
that?s a charango it ain?t a monkey
that?s an orangutan
no, it ain?t a fruit
that?s a mango
it ain?t no Mexican food
that?s chimichanga
it ain?t a dance
that?s a tango
it ain?t a brand of jeans
that?s wrangler
it ain?t in Colorado
that?s durango
it ain?t that fella with a big nose
who? cyrano de bergerac
so now you know
what?s that?
that?s a charango
