Taco Time

from Stomp Your Feet by Brother Jack

about

This is possibly the dumbest song I have ever written. However, my kids love it. This song, written and recorded in under 20 minutes, is the result of a dare from my wife. It's all about tacos and the social value of eating them together.

lyrics

What time is it?

It's taco time, down at my house.
Everybody's coming over tonight. It's taco time.

I called up Grandma and said "why don't you come over tonight?
We're having a great big party." It's taco time.
She said, "I wouldn't miss it. Boy, I love you so.
What should I be bringing? I know, a meatloaf!"

It's taco time, down at my house.
Everybody's coming over tonight. It's taco time.

Uncle Leroy said he'd be there. He loves a good theme night.
He said he had to stop on the way and pick up some tequila.
I said don't worry about Uncle Leroy, it's not that kind of party.
He said, "what you talking about, boy? It's taco time!"

It's taco time, down at my house.
Everybody's coming over tonight. It's taco time.

Guac-guac-guac
Guac-guac-guac
My wife makes really good guacamole.

I heard a story the other day, about avocados.
They said all the avocados in Mexico are controlled by the drug cartels.
It made me feel bad to give my money to organized crime.
But avocados are so green and I love guacamole.

Guac-guac-guac
Guac-guac-guac
My wife makes really good guacamole.


It's taco time, down at my house.
Everybody's coming over tonight. It's taco time.

We got cheese and beans. We got chicken and beans.
We got lettuce, onions, and beans. Did I mention we got the beans?
My wife says its the same thing every time.
"You eat too many refried beans, you're sleeping on the couch."


It's taco time, down at my house.
Everybody's coming over tonight. It's taco time.
