The Ketchup Song

Lyrics and music by Las Ketchup, the three Munoz sisters: Pilar, 29; Lola, 26; and Lucia, 19 ; the title is known in Spanish as "Asereje" and the lyrics are based on the 1979 classic "Rapper's Delight" by the Sugar Hill Gang, but with staccato twists from Las Ketchup's native Andalusia region in Spain, including gibberish refrains; similar to the "Macarena," the 1996 song and dance by the Spanish duo Los del Rio.


friday night it's party time
feeling ready looking fine,
viene diego rumbeando,
with the magic in his eyes
checking every girl in sight,
grooving like he does the mambo
he's the man alli en la disco,
playing sexy felling hotter,
he's the king bailando et ritmo ragatanga,
and the dj that he knows well,
on the spot always around twelve,
plays the mix that diego mezcla con la salsa,
y la baila and he dances y la canta
Chorus:
aserejč ja de jč de jebe tu de jebere seibiunouva,
majavi an de bugui an de buididipi,
aserejč ja de jč de jebe tu de jebere seibiunouva,
majavi an de bugui an de buididipi
many think its brujeria,
how he comes and disappears,
every move will hypnotize you,
some will call it chuleria,
others say that its the real,
rastafari afrogitano
he's the man alli en la disco,
playing sexy felling hotter,
he's the king bailando et ritmo ragatanga,
and the dj that he knows well,
on the spot always around twelve,
plays the mix that diego mezcla con la salsa,
y la baila and he dances y la canta
Repeat Chorus
