Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In a dusty ol' cantina, down Mexico way, Lives a critter so peculiar, folks hear 'bout him and say, He's the Desperotal, with a grin so wide, An axolotl desperado, he won't ever hide.
(Chorus)
Oh, Desperotal, with your frilly gills so fine, In your sombrero and your poncho, walkin' that thin line, A gunslinger with a heart, but a look so odd, You're the frisky frilled outlaw, by the grace of God.
(Verse 2)
With his goofy grin and eyes so bright, He roams the wild frontier, from mornin' 'til night, Regenerative powers, oh, he’s a wonder to see, Lose a limb in a showdown, it'll grow back, yessiree.
(Chorus)
Oh, Desperotal, with your frilly gills so fine, In your sombrero and your poncho, walkin' that thin line, A gunslinger with a heart, but a look so odd, You're the frisky frilled outlaw, by the grace of God.
(Bridge)
He’s got no fear of danger, his spirit’s runnin’ free, In the face of desperados, he stands with certainty, With his six-gun at the ready, and his gills a-frillin' proud, The Desperotal takes his stand, never blends into the crowd.
(Verse 3)
Folks say he’s a legend, down by the Rio Grande, With his quirky little ways, and his strong, steady hand, A hero to the meek, and a terror to the bold, In the heat of high noon, his tale’s often told.
(Chorus)
Oh, Desperotal, with your frilly gills so fine, In your sombrero and your poncho, walkin' that thin line, A gunslinger with a heart, but a look so odd, You're the frisky frilled outlaw, by the grace of God.
(Outro)
So here's to the Desperotal, in that wide sombrero's shade, May his story live forever, and his spirit never fade, With his goofy grin and frilly gills, a sight to behold, The axolotl desperado, whose legend’s forever told.
