Don Tiki - Pinakbet lyrics

Angelita was from heaven sent, a merchant seaman's dream Her lips perhaps a bit too big, her skin like Bailey's Cream She never liked to go out, she'd cook the whole night long She'd fix me longanisa, and the pork dinuguan She had a sister Lourdes, who cooked for me one night When Angelita caught us, was like a chicken fight Now since my angel left me, I'm so hungry and upset I miss her sweet romancing, and the the thing she made the best (Benny's searching, Benny's searching) for that perfect pinakbet (Benny's searching, Benny's searching) but I haven't found it yet And I'm tasting many places for that perfect pinakbet Boompa doompa doompa dum, boompa dum bum Estrallita's big on eggplant, Loli's pumpkin parts so small And Consuella in the hotel didn't understand at all Lisa makes a pretty dish, but the bittermelon's strong And Marcella gives goo portions, but you taste too much bagoong There's a spot to eat on River Street, kinda funky I suppose But face the fact, you brave the thorn if you like pick the rose I asked a nurse in the clinic, while she straightened up my bed If she like make pinakbet for me -- I remember what she said: "Masarap ang luto kong pinakbet, pero kasal na ako" (I'd love to make pinakbet for you, but I'm already married) Fortunato told me how He said, "You just kau kau da buggah"
