FIL-AM HISTORY MONTH PARTY THIS SUNDAY 10/20!

Hereโ€™s a rough English translation of the hit song โ€œBEBOTโ€ by The Black Eyed Peas

โ€œHey man, all of you listen to me
Here comes the real Filipino
Came from the barrio โ€“ Sapang Bato
Went to L.A. to work
In order to help my mother
Because life is so hard
But the dispositionโ€™s still bright
When eating โ€“ we use our hands
What we eat โ€“ chicken adobo
The balut โ€“ being sold at the corner
Share the glass already
My friend, letโ€™s start drinking

Filipino! Filipino! Filipino! Filipino!โ€
