    Fuente del Ceviche, Cancún, Quintana Roo, México

    Somebody once told me the world is gonna love me
    I run the best Big Things site you’ve read
    One day I was having fun eating tacos in the sun
    When I saw a Big Starfish up ahead

    Well, the tears start coming and they don’t stop coming
    Dodging the traffic, I hit the ground running
    Didn’t make sense not to run, run, run
    Towards Fuente del Ceviche, yum, yum, yum!

    The Fountain of Fish is a sight to see
    These photos I’m taking are so sweet!
    You’ll never see him if you don’t go (GO!)
    To Cancún, down in México

    Hey, now, that’s a Big Star, get your game on, go today
    Hey, now, that’s a Big Star, he really makes the grade
    And all that glitters is gold
    The Big Starfish’s story will be told!

    Del Ceviche is a cool Big, so no cold shoulder
    Built in the early-90s, but looks a bit older
    Like a graffitied Claudia Schiffer
    Put on a sombrero, take a picture

    The Star’s paint job is getting pretty thin
    There are homeless there who’ll attack you on a whim
    His future looks dire. How about yours?
    With Claw and Ven nearby you will never get bored

    Hey, now, that’s a Big Star, it is free and not paid
    Hey, now, that’s a Big Star, oh is that Randy Quaid?
    And all that glitters is gold
    The Big Starfish will never get old!

    Go to Cancún!
    There’s plenty of room
    In May or June
    If you don’t, you’re a goon

    Oye, esa es una gran estrella, comienza tu juego, ve a jugar
    Oye, esa es una gran estrella, comienza el programa y cobra
    Y todo lo que brilla se paga con oro
    Sólo estrellas fugaces…

    A passing cholo asked could I spare some change for gas
    I need to get myself away from this Big
    I said sí, sounds bueno to me
    Let’s get an enchilada with cheese
    Explore the Yucatan for a few days

    Well, the years start coming and they don’t stop coming
    We visit many Big Things that are stunning
    Nachi, Caracol our lives were fun
    Too many nachos, Pedro acts dumb

    So much to do, and Bigs to see
    Road trippin’ life with Pedro is sweet
    After 20 years the two of us go
    Back to Fuente del Ceviche – woah!

    Hey, now, he’s still a Big Star, he’ll never go away
    Hey, now, he’s still Big Star, even if his paint fades
    This parody of All Star‘s getting old
    Surprised you made it this far, truth be told

    And all that glitters is gold
    I think this quesadilla is growing mold
