about

This song is about an old joke the between 2000 - 2003 during my military service in Singapore. I made a lifelong friend, Ken Yuktasevi, during that time. It was actually Ken who gave the idea of the Chorus almost 17 years ago. We had an imaginary band called "Decomposing Hamsters" and the hit song is called "I Cook The Omelette (Spanish Style)". I am very determine to make this song to reality. So I researched, I rhymed, and wrote the lyrics. Ken, this song is dedicated to you.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Zumalacárregui, the General from Spain.
Tomas, was his first name.
His troops and himself fought bravely to defend,
But a lot of them died in vain.

While warring at the Battle of Tudela!
Tomas and his man, gave their all...
But the French was too strong for his troops to carry on,
Doom and death was all he foresaw.

Verse 2:
4,000 died and 3,000 prisoners,
had sacrificed for this war!
He ran and escaped for a thousand miles,
From the land he had much adore.

Tired, desperate and hungry for food.
He ended up at a farmhouse.
Commanding like a general, demanded a meal,
He was served with a better dish....than steaks from cows!

Chorus:
I COOK THE OMELETTE, SPANISH STYLE!

Verse 3:
They took pity and harbor Tomas in,
Eggs and potatoes were all they had,
They found some spices and some onions,
And a legendary dish was set.

The general found this dish so great,
It was easy damn to prepare!
Plagiarizing, the ladies’ effort,
He took the recipe, back to camp and shared!

Bridge:
Big Potatoes cut in thin slices,
And sometimes in small dices!
Peppers, in green or red!
Thick Chorizos, not for misers!

3 or 4 or sometimes 5,
Eggs beaten till they yellow.
Fry them together in a burning flame,

Killer meal for a fellow!
Tortilla de patatas
is what they call it in Spain! It is so damn delicious,
The cravings are just insane!
