Señor Burns

Señor Burns is an Emmy-nominated song performed by Tito Puente & His Latin Jazz Ensemble in the episode Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Part Two). The song was written in response for Mr. Burns' causing him to be downsized from Springfield Elementary School after Burns stole their oil. The music was written by Alf Clausen, and the lyrics by Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein. Two versions of the song are available on CDs: the version heard on television is on Songs in the Key of Springfield, and a longer version with a flute solo is available on the album Go Simpsonic with the Simpsons. The song was nominated for a 1996 Primetime Emmy award for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Music and Lyrics. It lost to "Let's Settle Down" from the television remake of the musical Bye Bye Birdie.

Lyrics

Wounds won't last long,

But an insulting song

Burns will always carry with him.

So I'll settle my score

On the salsa floor

With this vengeful Latin rhythm.

Burns!

Con un corazon de perro ("With a heart of a dog")

¡Señor Burns!

El diablo con dinero ("The devil with money")

It may not surprise you

But all of us despise you

Please die

And fry

In Hell

You rotten

Rich old wretch!

¡Adios, viejo! ("Farewell, old man!")
