Yoyoy Villame Lyrics - DPLYRICSPH

Roman Tesorio Villame, also known as Yoyoy Villame, was a Filipino singer, composer, lyricist, actor, politician, and comedian. He blended Filipino folk melodies, popular tunes, and nursery rhymes with witty, comedic lyrics that mixed Tagalog, Cebuano, and English in a form of grammar. Villame became a national figure in 1977 with his near-anthemic song "Mag-exercise Tayo". His most popular song was "Butse Kik," written from made-up Chinese-sounding words. The song was covered by various artists, including Aiza Seguerra and The Company. Villame also wrote "Philippine Geography," which lists 77 major islands, provinces, cities, municipalities, and towns in the Philippines. He established a love team with "Barok Labs Dabiana" and celebrated his fisherman father with "Piyesta ng Mga Isda." He made over 25 albums and won several sales awards, including a double platinum for his album Tirana My Dear and a platinum for McArthur and Dagohoy in 1991. His entertaining style of music earned him the title of 'King of Philippine Novelty Songs'.
