The Ketchup Song Lyrics

Mira lo que se avecina
a la vuelta de la esquina
viene Diego rumbeando
Con la luna en las pupilas
y su traje agua marina
parece de contrabando
Y donde mas no cabe un alma
alli se mete a darse caña
poseído por el ritmo ragatanga
Y el DJ que lo conoce
toca el himno de las doce
para Diego la cancion mas deseada
Y la baila, y la goza, y la canta

Aserejé, já, de jé, de jebe tude jebere
sebiunouba majabi an de bugui an de buididipí (x3)

No es cosa de brujeria
que lo encuentre tó lo dias
por donde voy caminando
Diego tiene chuleria
y ese punto de alegria
rastafari-afro-gitano
Y donde mas no cabe un alma
alli se mete a darse caña
poseído por el ritmo ragatanga
Y el DJ que lo conoce
toca el himno de las doce
para Diego la cancion mas deseada
Y la baila, y la goza, y la canta

Aserejé, já, de jé, de jebe tude jebere
sebiunouba majabi an de bugui an de buididipí (x3)

A nananá nananá nananananá
a nananá nananananao
a nananá nananá nananananá
a nananaiaiaieo

A nananá nananá nananananá
a nananá nananananao
a nananá nananá nananananá
a nananaiaiaieo

Aserejé, já, de jé, de jebe tude jebere
sebiunouba majabi an de bugui an de buididipí (x9)

I'm personally glad that these people have gone the way of the macarena.

I was taught in my Spanish class in my high school that the chorus is nothing but a bunch of nonsense words! They really don't mean anything in Spanish, so don't try to translate the chorus!

They keep saying stuff about a possessed cane... wierd.. and ya the chorus is jibber jabber

It is NO coincidence it sounds like "Sugarhill Gang's" Rapper's delight.

Here was the evolution--

Chic's "good times" a #1 on hot 100 in 1979 -> a approximate rendition of the melody from Chic went into Rapper's delight (the 1st top 40 rap song, I think in 1979) --> the hip, hop lyric was then used by Las Ketchup in their song.

Note the instrumental melody (bass track) from Chic was NOT digitally sampled like rap songs today -- it was at a different tempo and "ad lib".
