Soon I discovered there was more to life than hot dogs
Junk food is really really bad for you
Chef Boiardi made rations for the army after his career as an entrepreneur
All of a sudden, I found myself eating the foods of the world
So there was only one thing that I could do
Was sing a silly song and eat a tortilla

We went to eat at the international buffet
We put our plates, forks, spoons, and knives on the trays
We got to pick out whatever we wanted to eat
We chose our food, then we all returned our seats
The buffet had anything that you could ever want
Much more than any other ordinary restaurant
Make up your mind, can’t decide, which one should I get?
I don’t know if I like it, so I’ll only take a little bit

So what did Papa get?
What did Papa get?

Dad’s plate of food was sure to please
Everything he got from the buffet was Chinese
Dim sum like shu mai and tofu skin
Spare ribs, sticky rice, and shrimp dumplings
Char shu bau, rice noodles, and congee
Custard-filled buns and jasmine tea
Dim sum is his favorite on special occasions
‘Cause dad’s a real fan of food from Asia

So what did Mama get?
What did Mama get?

Mom’s tray looked good, we all agreed
She looked like she’d returned from Italy
Olives, bruschetta, and minestrone
Calamari, pizza, and ravioli
Mortadella, salsiccia, pancetta, prosciutto
A cup of cappuccino and a scoop of gelato
Mom likes italian food, don’t you know
Everything she ate tonight was delizioso

So what did Grandma get?
What did Grandma get?

Ma grand-mère is the biggest gourmand i’ve seen
And everything she got tonight was French cuisine
Entrecote, escargot, and tartiflette
Haricot vert and a mini baguette
Fromage, du vin, and creme brulée
And then finished off with a little café au lait
If grand-mère were to ever get the chance
You can bet that she would want to live in France

So what did grandpa get?
What did grandpa get?

Mijn opa didn’t really get too much
Because all the food he put on his plate was Dutch
A kroket, a frikadel, and some stamppot
A pannenkoek and poffertjes with extra stroop — that’s all

But what did Ana get?
What did Ana get?

Ana got a tortilla
Ana got a tortilla
Ana got a tortilla
Ana got a tortilla

You mean like
Nacho, nacho
Tortilla tostadas
Piled high with beef
And the whole enchilada
Like lettuce, tomato,
Refrito frijoles
With a side of sour cream
And guacamole?

No!
Not a corn tortilla
Or a flour tortilla
And not a sopaipilla
A big Spanish tortilla

Ana got a tortilla

Tortilla de patatas
