(Tonight this wonderful variety show celebrates 40 years on the air thanks to my favorite TV show host, Don Francisco! Yay!!! Ole!) Sábado Gigante By: Noah Eaton 11/9/02 Flanked by gorgeous models time after time Praising a detergent's quality you never buy Born Mario Kreutzberger to your German-Jewish parents Traded your name to get in tandem with the audience So trade that beefsteak for a bowl of soup Mix all the ingredients of entertainment is quite a coup Of politicians, game shows, magicians, and dancing mamacitas We follow your heart to the Walk of Fame with a parade of fiestas Don Francisco, you own the crown All across the world you make every Saturday party out loud You are what makes every gigantic saturday Your youthful spirit will always reign In the City of the Lions, come and sing with all charisma Rise to the podium and bow, Miss Chiquitita Do you see the hangman tooting his trumpet? It's "The Jackal", so better sing as best as you can or you're lions breakfast Don Francisco, you own the crown All across the world you make every Saturday party out loud You are what makes every gigantic saturday Your youthful spirit will always reign Perky, spunky, funky, and tongue-in-cheek A heart of a star all the way from Chile Not even the American Bandstand or The Ed Sullivan Show Could endure as long to your legend as a host Don Francisco, you own the crown All across the world you make every Saturday party out loud You are what makes every gigantic saturday Your youthful spirit will always reign Long live Saturday Long live Saturday Don Francisco... "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (11-10-2002 01:52 AM).] |
