"Cachaça is horrible"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

Okay, here is the same in English - Tom Jobim wrote also English words for the original... and cachaça is still the ickiest stuff, besides maotai and grappa, I've so far tasted. Pronounce "cachaça" as "ker-SHAH-suh" .
Taste of cachaça is icky
and feels insane
'though like rum it is made
from the sugar cane
and - each sip of the glass -
it makes me say "YECCCH!"

This stuff would serve
better as motor fuel
it's no good for
drinking as warm or cool
and - I bet that you too -
would really say "YECCCH"

Oh, why do I stare so sadly
Oh, my expression's so ghastly
I feel my money is wasted
I think that I'm gonna pass
yet 'nother cachaça glass...

I'd now rather have beer
that taste I could cheer
the taste of cachaça
- is worse than grappa -
there must be better drinks
available somewhere...

At the other end of the spectrum there is kim chee. And then there is fruitcake. You have added one more item to the list of repulsive foods and drinks.

Susanna - is this possibly "The Girl From Ipanema" in English? The phrasing fits within that song, and I'm pretty sure Jobim wrote that. I gave you 5's here. I liked it.

Yes. Garota = "teen girl" in Portuguese: "Garota de Ipanema" = Girl from Ipanema". I made Portuguese parody words for the song yesterday
