In a Combo

I wrote this as a parody song for my roommate to sing. Sadly, he chickened out. But rather than let it go to waste, I think I’ll post it here for a hump day chuckle. This is set to the tune of “Part of your World” from Disney’s The Little Mermaid.

Enjoy! Or don’t. See if I care.

Look at my fillings
Aren’t I a treat?
Wouldn’t you say this
Tortilla’s complete?
Wouldn’t you think I’m a taco…
A taco who, is supreme?

Look at this menu
Food meals unsold
How many items could one restaurant hold?
Looking around here you’d think
Sure, we sell everything
There’s empanadas and nachos a-plenty
Quesadillas and churros galore
You want… tortilla chips?
They come in twenty!
But who cares?
No big deal
I want mo~oooore

I wanna be where the burrito is
I wanna be stuffed, be stuffed with me~eat!
Filled to the foil with that – what do you call it?
Oh – rice!

Ninety nine cents doesn’t sell you too much
Quality is called for consumer value!
Served along side with – what’s that word again?
Guaca~mole! (Do not prounce end “e”)

Up where they grill, up where they make
Up where they slice all that jui~cy steak
That would be me – wish I could be
In a com~boooooo!

Who would I serve that I would deserve, barbacoa?
What would I say so I could play with carnita?
Y’know they say, at Chipotle
That they don’t, use iceberg lettuce
Proper foodin’ ready for chewin’
Ready to eaaaaa~aat

And ready to be what the people want
Ask ’em their preference and get some toppings
What’s salsa and why does it – what’s the word?
Buuu~uurn!

When’s it my turn?
Wouldn’t I love, love my image on the menu up above?
More than just there
Wish I could pair
In a… com~booooooooooo…
