Ground control to Major Juan
Ground control to Major Juan
Eat your menudo and put clean chones on

Ground control to Major Juan
Despierta America is on
Check your mapa and may the Virgen guide you through

This is Ground Control to Major Juan
You've won the loteria
And Alarma thinks that you used santeria
Now it's time to have a cerveza muy fria.

This is Major Juan to Ground Control
I'm stepping across the border
They're speaking in a most peculiar way.
And the Stars and Stripes are different today

Ground Control to Major Juan
There's infrared, it's the Migra, run!
Can you hear me Major Juan?
Can you hear me Major Juan?
Can you hear me Major Juan?
Can you hear?
