Mambo Tail Tale - Homeboy Sandman

I stepped into the spotlight, kinda uptight

I don’t really like the spotlight

I was just there cause my main Guy asked me to stop by

To celebrate the union of he and his wife

I was like «fine»

Wasn’t really trying to leave him high and dry

But I was only there to say «Hi» and «Bye»

Wasn’t really trying to hang around all night

Bye and Bye, pretty young thing went and caught my eye

They opened up wide

My oh my!

This chick is just about as fly as I am

One of a kind, shorty look dime

5 plus 5, 1 plus 9

Chilling in the cut like iodine

I rose up right, shimmied by her side

Started talking that jive (Hello)

«Hi, I’m Sandy»

«You're fine, we can be fine and Sandy»

«That'll be fine and dandy»

«I really can’t stand it to see you standing»

«We should be dancing, that’d really be outstanding»

She looked me in the eye

And said «chill, loco, what I look like?»

«Some old, silly, old video ho»

«Like I’m here to dance with any Joe Schmoe»

«Make me touch my toes?

Oh noooo!»

«I don’t dance to this garbage»

«This shit is retarded»

«You better beg pardon, pronto»

«Adios muchacho, unless you dance mambo»

Now, I don’t really know how the mambo go

I don’t know if you mambo fast

If you mambo slow, if you mambo both

Shorty looked fine though

I was trying to, kick it like Tae Kwon Do

So I said, «hell yeah, I can mambo, miss»

«I am very head honcho-ish»

Now of course I’m just talking shit

Why she gonna call my bluff?

This DJ playing all that Sambo stuff

He ain’t gonna play no mambo cuts

At that point the shit just got bugged

Shorty threw her fingers up, snapped them once

Out of nowhere, some dudes just rolled up

One had a trombone, the other had drums!

(Fuck)

This point, I got scared

Homegirl obviously came prepared

I thought the bouncers might spring into action

They ain’t do jack shit, they just stared

The DJ made an announcement:

«Everybody clear the dance floor please»

«We got a special visit from the Mambo Queen»

«And she about to show you how to mambo pro-per-ly»

Then a spotlight shined and it landed on her and I

I wished that I could run and hide

Instant-ly, my hands got clammy, my mouth got dry

Put in a bind because of my little white lie

I was feeling contrite

But I am not the type of guy to take flight

When the stakes get high

Said «I might as well try» (Might as well give it a shot)

A dude start playing the congas

Another dude starts strumming the bass

A chick starts shaking maracas

The crowd went bonkers

Apparently, the band was quite popular

It’d be improper and I’d be remiss

If I ain’t point out the fact

That when the dude played the sax

It went a little something like this:

(I was a little nervous but I said:)

(«You know what? Just dig inside yourself»)

(«And find what type of mambo, you got in your spirit, in your soul»)

Broke from out my B-Boy stance and I extended my hand

And she grabbed it

Then we started moving side to side

Kind of synchronized

Like we planned it

Then I started putting it down

I started spinning her around real rapid

Then I threw her up in the sky

They thought I threw her too high

But then I caught her in stride when she landed

It was fantastic

I was going in hard like the race car dude

From «Dancing With The Stars»

No bullshit, went into a backflip

Landed in a full split

The crowd broke out in applause

I was just a natural

Me and homegirl got a standing O

They cried for an encore more than once

But we had to run back to her place

She gave me the buns… The End
