--Mexican Stereotype--
Thick mustache, big sombrero,
A donkey in his hand.
Grass is yellow,
The color of his land.
Juan, Manuel
Javier, even Enrique;
Maria, Paloma
Berta and Teresita.
Spicy smell, Taco Bell,
A place to eat you see.
A franchise, restaurant,
Not a Mexican Phone company.
Bonita, Bonito
Beautiful as can be.
Chupacabra in the night,
Lock the door, throw away the key.
Soccer fan, Cruz Azul,
Blue Cross is their team.
Burrito, Taco pie,
Main ingredients bean.
Make the Tostitos, roll the dough.
A cook out, what a thrill.
Bring it in, it wont work,
Beans keep falling through the grill.
Vato’s locos, chica girl,
Hombre is a man,
Stereotypes from society,
Of a typical Mexican.
