That Rick Buur Again

If you're a dedicated follower of this blog, and of course you are, than you know Rick Buur. Our mascotte. 'The Dutch desafinado hero'. Since 2018, it's a joy to put up his translated seasonal songs. Usually, he picked a real Christmas song, like Christmas in Washington by Steve Earle, and Christmas at the Airport by Nick Lowe. But this year, he reworked 'Buenos Tardes Amigo' by Ween. Rick kept the murder ballad lyrics in tact, for all ye non-Dutch speakers. But set the scene on Christmas eve, instead of May 5. Because 'Nochebuena', the day before Christmas, is the right day to arrange some pressing things. Like a turkey. Or revenge for a blood feud.
