Picha Pie

Parokya Ni Edgar

at first i was afraid to eat a picha pie

kept thinking this is not a good

this is a picha pie

and i spent oh so many nights

just eating my tortang talong

and i grew strong

because of my tortang talong



biglang may box, from outer space

nakita ko sabay kinuha ko

'yung box from outer space

binuksan ko at nasindak

may picha pie sobrang laki!

tinikman ko within 5 seconds,

naubos ko parang mani!



ngayon ako, ay ganito

kung 'di ka picha hut o shakey's

you're not welcome, ('tang) ina mo!

ngayong sa akin picha pie

ayoko nang mahiwalay

para sa 'yo, handa kong magpakamatay



'cuz now I love picha pie

as long as i eat picha pie i know i'll be alive

i want all my garlic beef

pepperoni, double cheese

ang picha pie... oh, picha pie... penge!



you took all the cash I have, naubos ng lahat

gusto ko pa ng picha pie

ngunit ang pera'y di sapat

and so I spent so many nights

just feeling sorry for myself

it made me cry, wala na ba akong picha pie?

ngayon ako ay nagipit!

hindi na ako istupid person na hindi nag-iisip

medyo mahal ang picha pie

you can't expect it to be free

that's why I'm saving all my money

para mayroong pambili



[look, it's not 'picha pie', it's 'pizza pie!]

(huh? picha pie!)

[no no no, say it like this 'pi-zza pie!]

(pi-cha pie)

[pi-]

(pi-)

[zza!]

(cha!)

[pizza!]

(picha!)

[nononono, nonono]
