Three Amigos ( 1986)
Jefe: We have stuffed many pinatas for your birthday
celebration!
El Guapo: How many pinatas?
Jefe: Many pinatas, many!
El Guapo: Jefe, would you say I have a
plethora of pinatas?
Jefe: Yes, El Guapo. You have a plethora.
El Guapo: Jefe, what is a plethora?
El Guapo: Jefe, you do not understand women. You cannot force
open the petals of a flower. When the flower is ready, it opens itself up to
you.
Jefe: So when do you think Carmen will
"open up her flower" to you?
El Guapo: Tonight, or I will kill her!

"...Have you ever seen the movie 'Three
Amigos'?" Boyd asked. "Do you remember El Guapo? He was the bad guy.
I think it was Steve Martin at the end who was talking about El Guapo and how
everyone has their own El Guapo. It might be your mom, your dad or a tyrant of
some kind. And basically I'm using my personal El Guapo."
Actually, Boyd's El Guapo is a composite of a
couple of people, but he refused to name names.
"I always
appreciate when lyrics are distinct enough that you can tell generally what's
going on and appreciate it, and vague enough that you can apply your own
meaning to it," the singer explained. "So it'd be great if people could
apply their own El Guapos to this song..."
