Some of you might remember a challenge from a while back where I wrote ten sets of lyrics based on the interests of some of my Livejournal friends.

You might also remember that I recently ordered a new piece of recording gear, which I am still impatiently waiting for them to ship grar smash.

But, still, eventually it will arrive, and I will want to test it out. But what should I record?

Well, putting both of those little trips down memory lane together, I come up with this:

Please to point me to the lyrics for "Avocados and Beer". Has it been translated into "Los Avocados y La Cerveza"?

Dig me, I can't spell in two languages.

Here they are. No translation yet!
