"Señor Burns" is a song performed by Tito Puente and his Latin Jazz Ensemble.

Background[edit]

Puente wrote the song out of revenge for Mr. Burns' causing him to be downsized from Springfield Elementary School after Burns stole the school's oil. Puente felt that a "slanderous mambo" was a more fitting and more thorough vengeance than shooting Burns. Chief Wiggum cleared Puente as a suspect in Burns' shooting after hearing the song.

Lyrics[edit]

Episode version[edit]

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
¡Señor Burns!
El diablo con dinero
It may not surprise you,
But all of us despise you,
Please die,
And fry,
In Hell.
You rotten,
Rich old wretch!
¡Adios, viejo!

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'
¡Señor Burns!
El diablo con dinero
It may not surprise you,
But all of us despise you,
Please die,
And fry,
In Hell.
You rotten,
Rich old wretch!

But all of us despise you,
Please die,
