The Lyrics

Here's some links that I used for research on this song: http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa062600a.htm http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa042202a.htm http://www.redwolf.com.au/xfiles/season05/5x12.html http://www.kingkongvsgodzilla.com/chupa/

From Pensacola to west coast coral,
With yellow fine hairs on its rear and sharp fangs that rip and tear.
Like fever dengue in Appalachia,
He's like that fever so bizarre,
One went roadkill from a car.
Those brakes locked up all four, so says the old folk lore.
Then barely missed hitting another,
Where there's one there's more.

Cause he's Chupa (chu!) El Chupacabra (El Chupacabra)
You may find your old goat dead manana.
Cause he's Chupa (chu!) El Chupacabra,
Chupa needs ration of exsanguination,
Cause El Chupa, it's blood he loves.

Down in Tampico they shot one climbin',
They shot it grave yard dead I swear, left it lie for buzzard fare.
Tissue diminished, lying in clover,
They should have put it in a jar,
With tequila from the bar.
They're far between and few, and science needs its view,
But they just let it lie there to rot.
Is this legend true?

Cause he's Chupa (chu!) El Chupacabra (El Chupacabra)
You may find your old goat dead manana.
Cause he's Chupa (chu!) El Chupacabra,
Chupa needs ration of exsanguination,
Cause El Chupa, it's blood he loves.

Chupa! El Chupacabra! Chupa needs ration of exsanguination.

If you're high rolla, then I say go girl,
For the last thirty years or so, no one's had a chupa show.
It'd be low risko, with high payola,
They'd make a nice side show affair,
With their yellow feather hair.
Just watch them as they dine, on drinks made from blood wine.
You could be the side show macaroni.
Get a few confined.

Cause he's Chupa (chu!) El Chupacabra (El Chupacabra)
You may find your old goat dead manana.
Cause he's Chupa (chu!) El Chupacabra,
Chupa needs ration of exsanguination,
Cause El Chupa, it's blood he loves.

For a moment I thought this was a new Chalupa awards song by that other author... **tries to come up with commentary pun on "suck" / "doesn´t suck" / "bloody sucker" theme. Fails.** 545 :-)

I knew what a Chupacabra was from a rival roller hockey team, and Jackie Chan adventures, so this song caught my attention. Good song, I enjoyed it.

Fave line: "Chupa needs ration of exsanguination." This parody is so good it's scary.

No sorry gian, I do not, but if you hum a few bars I might be able to rap it out.

Does anyone out here know where gian can find this?

Just great! I'd recommend you email it to www.forteantimes.com, the UK magazine - the people there would probably publish it, and the audience would grok it!

I could see this as a big broadway production, a la Chicago's finale with the huge wall of lights. LOL

Hey DiGeek Girl - Good idea - it could start with a score like DO DO DO DO DO-IM! Thanks for reviewing my portifolio. =:-)
