Story Behind The Song

Should be a little inspirational...the song was meant to suggest a tale about a woman who danced in a "dyslexic" manner. The point was that, besides being an entertaining musical number, we all have issues we can overcome.

Song Description

This song can be a dance number; it was done for fun but tells a story about how someone dealt with a disability.

Lyrics

She?s Mambo-dyslexic



She?s a girl from Barcelona

And her dream is to return

Although she is yet to know herself

To accomplish what she yearns

She strolled into a dance hall?yes

That dark and fateful day

And discovered that her dancing shoes

could take her home to stay

PorQue?



POR QUE?She can do the hustle

She can nail the quick step

She can dance the tango

And she can learn a new step

But when she tries to mambo

Her feet begin to lock

Her left goes right her, right goes left

She has a mental block



She?s mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic



Her mother was a dancer

Whose skill was quite adept.

Her father fell right to his death

When he should have mamboed left.

She wants to win a contest

To put her pain to rest

But her left goes right, her right goes left

yet she is not inept



She?s mambo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mambo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mambo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mambo-dys-lex-ic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic



Spoken:

Was it her disability that

gave her wealth and fame?

Listen if you want a clue?

Can you guess her name?





She can samba and meringue

She can dance to any beat

There is one step, the mambo,

that trips her up on her feet.

The way this woman suffered,

could win the judges heart.

What she?s done about it

Is poetry and art!





Bridge:

She mixed somba with a cha cha.

then she rumba?d to the back

But the mandatory mambo,

Will it stop her??.. in her track?





So did she win the contest?

She wowed them in a blur

What is difficult to others,

Was commonplace to her.

She made her disability

An asset yes she did?

Now she?s in Barcelona

Eating bagels topped with squid





She?s mambo-dyslexic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mambo dyslexic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mambo dyslexic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic

She?s mambo dyslexic

mam-bo-dys-lex-ic



INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE??????????????????????



HAHA HA



She?s mambo bodacious

She?s mambo fantastic

She?s mambo creative

She?s mambo original





Spanish talking and singing to follow





Alternate verse:



So did she win the contest?

Did she wowed them in a blur

What is difficult to others,

became commonplace to her

Did she make her disability,

an asset do we know?

Is she now in Barcelona?

Is she starring in the show?



Spoken:

We all have disabilities

We all are quite unsure

When they write the story of your life??

What will they say of yours?
