about

Hollywood, 1962

Isadora Martínez, veteran exotica star, puts on a show at the Tiki-Ti Cocktail Lounge for one of their famous "Thursty Thirsdays." Some music historians content that it was this era of her work, and perhaps this performance in particular – one of her last before her retirement – that symbolized the peak of Martínez's famed "Corn Queen" persona.

lyrics

She is who I am in mirrors
The summer after sun eclipse
Turns smoking bar believers toward
The shimmer in her hips

And smearing all that rouge around
She’ll purse her lips and say:
“Shit like this, it was poisonous,
I think, back in the day”

She said, “Make yourself at home now, sailor
No need to say what’s understood:
I work the room like a dream
Miss Mai Tai and Nicotine
A taste of what you fancy does you good”

“Corazón de luz candente!
Mas suave que la cachemira
Más rico que el aguardiente
Corazón de edades olvidadas!
Yo quiero pedir poder oculto
Y suerte en mis escapadas”

SPOKEN:
Y entonces mortal,
Qué te haces digno de una ninfa como yo?
Me llaman el espíritu de maíz, de la cosecha, y de fertilidad...

Poder, poder, poder
