El Jalapeño
Chicano Batman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Picale la cebolla y metela a la hoya
No te olvides cinco gotas de aceite
Cinco gotas de aceite
Adentro de la hoya
Echale ajito bien cortadito pa' que sepa sabroso
No te olvides de mi jalapeño
El sabor mas picoso
El sabor mas sabroso
El sabor mas picoso
Que da vida eterna
Me llena de vida y salud
Me mantiene me sostiene feliz
Estoy en las nubes
Soy el rayo
De pura energia y de luz
Soy libertad
Por eso yo hurgo la tierra
Yo soy campesino
Yo soy de verdad
Soy ancestral
Medicinal
Yerbas
Frutas y vegetal
Todas son partes de mi
Todos somos parte de la naturaleza
Compartiendo de su eterna belleza
Adentro y afuera
Todo es lo mismo
Tropicalismo tropicalismo
Me enchila a mi
El sabor mas picoso
El sabor mas sabroso
El sabor mas picoso
The lyrics to Chicano Batman's song "El Jalapeño" paint a vivid picture of cooking with love and pride in one's cultural heritage. The song opens with instructions on how to prepare a dish - first, chop the onion finely and add it to the pot. Remember to add five drops of oil to the pot as well. Then, add garlic that has been chopped finely to give it a rich flavor. But the most important ingredient is the jalapeno pepper, which the singer claims to be the owner of the spiciest and most flavorful taste in the world.
The chorus of the song repeats that statement, emphasizing the jalapeno pepper's spiciness and taste reminding listeners that it adds vitality, provides sustenance, and brings joy to life. The singer then declares himself to be the embodiment of lightning, pure energy, and lightness, expressing his belief in freedom and ancestral wisdom. The song concludes by acknowledging the connection between human beings and nature, as well as its eternal beauty. The lyrics highlight the importance of embracing one's cultural heritage and cooking with love, care, and attention to detail.

WHY are they sacred
@user-by5bn9iq6j
Yes Jalapenos are sacred My Father Gave Me a Zip lock Bag Full of Wonderful Green Jalapenos that he Got From My Tia Lucha but he gave me the Jalapenos For my Birthday 🎂 and I put them in the Dresser in the kitchen and when i got home from work I went to get some to eat with my Burrito and the Jalapenos were gone !!!! I Asked my " Ex " old lady where the Jalapenos are and she told me Her Daughter Threw them away and her Daughter came walking in the Kitchen with a Smirk on her Face like yeah I did that And that's part of the reason the old lady Became a " Ex " ... Don't " F*ck with a Brothas Jalapenos 🌶️ !!!😆
