Just for fun, I took this cartoon, erased the lyrics and replaced them with the ones from THIS song.

I rather think they fit quite well…..and no, I didn’t post it online, or share it with anyone else.
Sure, but think the best part of the joke is that Millie is a lousy songwriter. She has no official voice but I imagine her as only a half decent singer.
Yeah, the lyrics don’t scan or rhyme or anything.

What’s “La Cucaracha”? The closest thing I can think of is “Los chupacabra” and I don’t think that’s what she’s talking about at all.
According to Wikipedia, La Cucaracha (“The Cockroach”) is a traditional Spanish folk song. It is unknown when the song came about. It is also very popular in Latin America. In Mexico it was performed widely during the Mexican Revolution. Many alternative stanzas exist. The basic song describes a cockroach who cannot walk.
“Corrido de la Cucaracha”, litograph (published en 1915) of Antonio Vanegas Arroyo.
