- Excuse me, madam.

- What a f***ing gay he is!

Long, long time ago

in these lands lived a

Prince of Granada

who fell in love

with a stranger,

He offered her his wealth,

his lands, his heart

she warned she didn't know

who she was

She was completely lost in

the memories of her past

Ignoring her,

the Prince married her

and took her to the most beautiful

building in the palace.

For many years they were

very happy in that place.

Until one day,

when the Prince was

having a bath in the main swimming-pool

she leapt on him possessed

by an unexpected rage,

and stabbed him to death.

The Prince wanted to know

why was she behaving this way.

She smiled, saying:

I have just remembered where I have

already seen a palace such as this one.

This palace is exactly the same

as the Devil's, deep inside hell.

Thank you for coming.

For many years they were

very happy in that place.

Until one day,

when the Prince was having a bath

in the main swimming-pool,

she leapt on him possessed by an

unexpected rage,

and stabbed him to death.

The Prince wanted to know

why was she behaving this way.

She smiled, saying:

I have just remembered where I have

alreade seen a palace such a this one.

This palace is exactly the same

as the Devil's deep inside hell.

And no one heard about

Paula-Paula's show ever again.
