That's silly, everyone knows only Spanish flamingos can keep compas correctly....

Yeah, I saw that about the moron killing the bird and decided to ignore it lest it put me in mood. He lives on in our memory.

Forget counting it man, the bird's feeling it in threes - one, two, many, one, two, many...

There is a very similar escobilla that's even harder to follow that goes - one, too, many, one, too, many...

DEP maestro

Those damn foreign flamingos stealing flamenco. But I'm a strong believer that el flamenco se hace, no se nace, which roughly translated means that you're not born a flamingo, you have to work to become one.

@Dudnote.

Dude...note...Now that you used DEP maestro on a bird, what the hell am I suppose to say when a flamenco artist dies? If Pepe Habichuela dies and all I can think of is a flamingo spinning in circles, I'm blaming you
