Parody of "The Sunday after the Saturday Immediately Following the Actual Calendar Day of St. Patrick's Day" by Mikey Mason

lyrics

The worst is now behind us
As the morning sun is shining on the
Day after the another
Gringo fiesta gone to hell

‘Twas a springtime set of parties
All across El Grand Norte that left
Every prideful Mexican
Beg for the closing bell

Broken Dos Equies on the floor
The tequila is no more
And the hungover Amer’cans
Lost the Spanish learned before

It’s the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May
I hate the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May

Cinquo de Mayo they all shouted
‘Bout the day the French were routed, at least
That’s what it’s supposed to be
For everyone who knows

But the heroes’ win at Puebla
Featured nowhere in the cele-brating
Crowds intoxicating themselves
Until the bars closed

Drinking themselves under tables
With no word about how able
Were the Mexicans who stormed to victory
O’er Imperial Foes

It’s the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May
I hate the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May

Every Mexican feels so sad
And I get why they are so mad, but
I'm singing this in English
So I guess I'm just as bad

It’s the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May
I hate the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May

It’s the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May
I hate the Sunday after the Saturday immediately following
The actual calendar day, the 5th of May
