La Sopa

The Soup
Gentlemen, let's go
To Mr. Vicente's house;
There's a party that's
Lit up and lively.
There's a party
In my neighborhood,
At Mr. Vicente's house.
It was fully lit up,
The atmosphere was lively.
The porch was full,
The balcony too;
And a line in the kitchen,
Waiting for that soup.
That party had everything,
Music to dance to.
And then Píenealo arrived
And made the people enjoy.
It was one in the morning,
People kept coming;
And in the middle of the room
Mr. Vicente shouted,
For God's sake:
"Add water to the soup,
More people have arrived".
"Add water to the soup,
More people have arrived".
"Add water to the soup,
More people have arrived"....

And more people keep coming..
"Add water to the soup,
More people have arrived"...
Oh, more people keep coming....
"Add water to the soup,
More people have arrived"....
More people have arrived...
Water!, more people have arrived
Water!, more people have arrived...
Oh, more people keep coming.
Gentlemen, the soup is finished
