Filipino American History Month Celebration
FIL-AM HISTORY MONTH PARTY THIS SUNDAY 10/20!
Here’s a rough English translation of the hit song “BEBOT” by The Black Eyed Peas
“Hey man, all of you listen to me
Here comes the real Filipino
Came from the barrio – Sapang Bato
Went to L.A. to work
In order to help my mother
Because life is so hard
But the disposition’s still bright
When eating – we use our hands
What we eat – chicken adobo
The balut – being sold at the corner
Share the glass already
My friend, let’s start drinking
Filipino! Filipino! Filipino! Filipino!”
