Julius Wechter - Spanish Flea lyrics

There was a little Spanish flea A record star he thought he'd be He'd heard of singers like Beatles The Chipmunks he'd seen on TV Why not a little Spanish flea? And so he hid Inside a doggie from Madrid Arriving here in the city Still singin his sweet harmony As brave as any flea could be He walked around As if he owned the town Humming his pint sized melody With his guitar he knew he'd be a star And in his old home town, how proud they'd be Then all at once he met a man Who said, "I'll help you if I can" He listened first to his song And then sang right along for you see He loved the little Spanish flea You'll be the rage I'll put you on the stage In costumes like you've never worn While at a glance He knew this was his chance Yes all at once a Spanish star was born For when the people heard him play, They all began to shout "OLE!" He was the pride of the nation, A singing sensation was he Though he was just a Spanish flea!
