about

The Furniture (part 8: finale) by The Bastard Sons of Dennis, from their album Cherry Smoke Empire.

The Furniture (Los Muebles) is a traditional northern Spanish sea shanty from the Asturias region.

It tells a tale of how a dysfunctional family of linguistically challenged fishermen lost and then found some furniture following a flood, and the consequences.

Linguistically challenged means, in this case, they were not terribly bright and could not even speak their own language very well.

The Spanish version has been loosely translated into English by The Bastard Sons of Dennis.

From an idea by Daniel Richardson.

This song and its anomalies of translation make a great teaching aid, if one happens to have students learning English or Spanish.

lyrics

THE FURNITURE (LOS MUEBLES)
------------------------------------------------
Ahora hemos encontrado todos sus muebles tio,
Ahora hemos encontrado todos sus muebles tio,
Ahora hemos encontrado todos sus muebles tio,
Qué le hacen para decir, tío?
Qué le hacen para decir, tío?

Now we have found all of your furniture uncle,
Now we have found all of your furniture uncle,
Now we have found all of your furniture uncle,
What do you say, uncle?
What do you say, uncle?

Oh... bueno.

Oh... good.
