I thought hard and long. I read the questions over and over. However, only one question made me think and wonder why no one else ever asked it. The banner of my site has the idea for everyone to see, but no one in the past bothered to ask me what it could be. So, one person did, and thank YOU for finally asking it! It was the only question that made me think really hard.
I made this video to show the winning question. This person has been contacted! Congratulations!
I still think the Hummus song is way funnier and addictive to watch. So now Tabbouleh? What’s next? Foul (fava beans) song or shawarma? I am voting shawarma will be next for sure.
I feel like Tabbouleh!
Here are the lyrics:
Tabbouleh
Tabbouleh Tabbouleh
Makes me shake
shake shake my booty
Eat it with lots of falafal
Eat it on top of a camel
Dance.
Cuz it’s the only beat
That’s gonna stick in your head
and stick in your teeth
You gotta push push
Push the tush
When you eat an Arab salad
that is not fettoush
It’s a hearty party
tasting yum yum
Taste that parsley
Shake your bum bum
In the club.
Don’t need a shorty/cutie
All I need to take is
a bowl of tabbouleh
No we don’t need hip hop
house or trance
Cuz this song about a salad
make you shake your pants
No we don’t need groovy
techno techno
Just tabbouleh
in your head hole
Don’t need bouncers
or velvet rope
I hope by now you
get the point
Don’t need glow stick
or Red Bull vodka
You just gotta shake
where you make the kaka
First you take parsley from your sister
Chop it off like hand of shoplifter
Then take a tomato and dice it
don’t forget to add all the spices
Then you take a half cup of burghul
Oh my God, it’s gone taste so good
Yes this recipe is the bomb but
it tastes best when it’s made by Mamma
In Lebanon
they eat it with coffee
In Libya
eat it with Quadafi
Jordan, Iraq
Bahrain, Saudi
Everybody love
the tabbouleh
In Syria
they eat it the fastest
and make sure to
shake shake Damascus
Them in Yemen
lemon the food-y
And Africa they
move move Djibouti
Tabbouleh
I hope I will finish
It to me is like
Popeye’s spinach
but instead of getting
muscles in both arms
I get a moving groove
in my buttocks
Met a girl
She was a cutie
She said she’d
make me tabbouleh
But she made it
without the tomatoes
So I had to tell her
See you later
I went to a couple of Arabic blogs today, and people have been spreading these videos online. I saw one, and said, “what the hell?” Then I saw the other, and said, “that’s it. You just ruined my respect towards modern Arabic music.”
Can we seriously say that I am watching provocative videos and no musical talent at all? Is this what the music industry in the Arab world is turning to? Ewww!
Two thumbs down and utter disappointment from my people.
Some have been emailing me, messaging me, etc, about yesterday’s post. I got nothing to say. All I can say, I am fine. I am just overly moody sometimes, and some things that come out of my head and gets written on here are based on lack of self control on my part.
Good news is, I feel like I am back to my groove, and feel like dancing. I called up Shakira, but she said she was busy, blah blah.. Pssh!!! TYPICAL!! So, who wants to dance with me instead?
