Verse 1
(D major) Speaking of loud (C sharp major) noises,
went to... I (E major) saw flamenco.
(E minor) (E major) Flamenco,
(D major) which was...
it was so impressive.
And I tell you, (E major) after like 10 minutes,
(D major) I was like, I've seen enough.
It was... it was truly impressive.
It was very impressive.
(D major) An d it's... but, you know,
there's all the clapping,
(G major) and the stomping, and the (D major) snapping.
(G major) It's (D major) like... it's like a competition,
who can make the most (D major) noise.
It's like, what about this?
What if I did this?
I wouldn't even (E major) have to open my mouth.
(D major) It's (F sharp minor) very sensual, flamenco.
Halfway through the show
I got pregnant. (E major) (E major)
It was... (D major) No smiling though, right?
(E major) Always... (D major) It's like, all I can
(E major) think is there like, my feet (D major) hurt.
(E major) My feet really hurt from that. (D major)
(E major) Flamenco.
(D major) So different from Fado,
the (F sharp minor) Portuguese Fado.
(D major) I love talking about Portugal
and Spain
because the Spanish are
always like, where's (D major) that?
It's next door.
Is that (E major) one of the autonomous
regions?
No, it's not. It's (D major) a whole other country.
But Fado is different.
know, like, flamenco is energetic
and loud and almost angry,
(E major) whereas fado is sad an
d melanchol (D major) ic.
Sad, it's very fado, which means fate.
And the Portuguese love it.
It's like a whole (D minor) country
that's really into the band
(D minor) The Cure. (D major) (E major)
They (D major) love it.
Fado, fado, which means fate.
Fado, it sounds like a guy.
It's like, I saw fado.
Oh, he seems depressed.
He was so dad, which means longing,
but it sounds like how a drunk person would say,
so sad.
As a father, he was so dad. (D major)
Very (D minor) so dad.
(D major) Yes, (D minor) son.
That (D major) doesn't make sense.
But it's interesting, similar (E major) to flamenco,
there's like dinner theaters of (D major) fado.
No, I don't (D minor) know how that
would even start.
It was like, (E major) hey grandma,
you know that song about grandpa
(D major) drowning?
What if we (F sharp minor) sing it at the
restaurant?
Because you know when you eat,
you want a sad song.
Have you decided?
Yeah, I'm going to have the cod
and can I have the song
about missing Lisbon?
Ah, that sounds great.
