I know you've heard of the Titanic,
The movie has brought it fame
The loss of life was tragic,
But did ya hear 'bout the Mayonnaise?

Hellman's Mayonnaise was from England,
The Titanic had twelve thousand jars,
It was lost in the sinking,
Sandwich lovers grieved afar.

The whole world mourned at the loss,
"How would we make salads with our potatoes?"
So they made a day of mourning,
And called it "Sinko de Mayo."

I'm off for lunch in open air
I know music will greet me there
A sombrero wearing mariachi band
Probably doesn't understand
The reason that they celebrate
Is commemoration of Hellman's fate!

I'll have a burger with bacon, lettuce and tomato--but hold the Titanic!

You certainly know how to put a smile on an angel's face!
