Track five from the Christian and the Hedgehog Boys to the tune of Ricky Martin's "The Cup of Life" in its original Spanish.

The song serves as a demonstration of Christian's mastery of the Spanish language. Assuming "Casanova" is meant to be a proper name, the song's title translates roughly to "The Kitchen in Casanova's House."

The Song

Lyrics

[sung over Ricky Martin's "La Copa de La Vida"]

Spanish

Are you out of your mind? It's hard enough to figure out what the hell Christian's singing in English. But after painstakingly listening to Chris' out of key singing and horrible butchery of Spanish pronunciation, this much was deciphered:

Casanova
Estamos en la cocina
En la casa de Casanova
¡Estamos divertido, si! [Chris probably meant "Estamos divertiendo", "We are having fun" not "We are fun"]
Bailamos con la musica
Hay muchas chicas y niñas aqui
En la casa
Casanova esta muy feliz
Porque esta haciendo cosas calientes
Hace calor!
Hace calor!
Casanova
Here we go: ole, ole, ole! Go go go: Ole, ole, ole!
Esta noche, esta noche sera
Divertida: ole, ole, ole!
Uno dos tres: ole ole ole
Un deux trois: ole, ole ole
Because he is Casanova Go go go: ole ole ole
Ole ole (However many times)
Casanova

English

Casanova
We're in the kitchen
In the house of Casanova
We are fun, yes!
[Chris fails at the present gerund] Dancing with the music
There are many girls and little girls here
In the house
Casanova is very happy
Because he is doing/making hot things
It's hot!
It's hot!

Here we go: ole, ole, ole! [Ole just means "cheers" or "bravo"]
Go go go: Ole, ole, ole
This night, this night will be
Fun: ole, ole, ole!
One, two three: ole ole ole!
[In French] One, two three: ole, ole ole!
Because he is Casanova Go go go: ole ole ole
Ole ole [Repeat to fade]
Casanova
