Harpo en su harpa no fue vacilon
La gente callo hasta el balcon
Chico, Chico, que actor, que chistoso burlador
Pero Harpo en su harpa fue arcano
Harpo en su harpa fue also pa' ver
Algo que puede atizar tu ser
Como Groucho, no hay dos, que chistoso con su voz
Harpo en su harpa fue arcano
Harpo Harpo somos los angeles ¿De donde viene tu
sonoridad?
Harpo Harpo tocanos tocanos una vez mas
Harpo Harpo somos celestiales ¿De donde viene tu
sonoridad?
Harpo Harpo tocanos tocanos una vez mas

A los celestiales pidio el permiso
Cuando mi tristeza me afecto
Harpo Harpo me toco
Harpo en su harpa fue arcano

Way;
Oh Harpo! Harpo! When you start,
Tears of joy inside my heart
When Harpo played his harp all was still
[They're talking folks about summer and out here in the west this year like we're recording this in Chico California and it's quite amazing
I started coughing a few minutes ago
We're outside recording with microphones set up and that's why you can hear different random noises and people vomiting in the background and big motorcycles crashing into each other like big accidents
People talking about their arachnid collection and people speaking in languages it sounds sort of like French but with four letter words
Now, but, it real, like a big gust of wind just kicked up and all of a sudden I realized whoa! these fires are getting close
So this is quite an adventurous recording session
What a summer!
Before I started talking to you other musicians were talking about what a summer this has been
My goodness! So, let's play songs]
