A taco (/ˈtɑːkoʊ/ or UK /ˈtækoʊ/) is a traditional Mexican dish composed of a corn or wheat tortilla folded or rolled around a filling. A taco can be made with a variety of fillings, including beef, pork, chicken, seafood, vegetables and cheese, allowing for great versatility and variety. A taco is generally eaten without utensils and is often accompanied by garnishes such as salsa or chili pepper, avocado or guacamole, cilantro (coriander), tomatoes, onions and lettuce.
According to the Real Academia Española, publisher of Diccionario de la Lengua Española, the word taco describes a typical Mexican dish of a maize tortilla folded around food ("Tortilla de maíz enrollada con algún alimento dentro, típica de México"). The original sense of the word is of a "plug" or "wad" used to fill a hole ("Pedazo de madera, metal u otra materia, corto y grueso, que se encaja en algún hueco"). The Online Etymological Dictionary defines taco as a "tortilla filled with spiced meat" and describes its etymology as derived from Mexican Spanish, "light lunch", literally, "plug, wadding". The sense development from "plug" may have taken place among Mexican silver miners, who used explosive charges in plug form consisting of a paper wrapper and gunpowder filling.

She works late, I've had a hard day watching color TV
After nine, I plan a tease, then dine
Tonight I'll tell her the words she longs to hear
Tonight I'll make it clear
Kate works each day nine to five, serving with true dedication
She serves you sodas, and ice creams, and pizzas, and chilies
And burgers, all kinds and tacos too, dig
Kate works each day nine to five, serving with true dedication
She serves you sodas, and ice creams, and pizzas, and chilies
And burgers, all kinds and tacos, too, yeah
After ten, after dessert, my plan
Is to dance the latest steps they do at the local ballet
After twelve, the atmosphere's just swell
Kate pulls a credit card and I grab her coat
Tomorrow's another busy day
Kate works each day nine to five, serving with true dedication
She serves you sodas, and ice creams, and pizzas and chilies
And burgers and tacos and French fries, divine
Eat and feel fine, my favorite hangout serves extra grow time
So c'mon Kate, don't stay till eight, 'cause you're my date
Now, tell me what ya got to eat for me? Ohh, Kate
Don't make me wait
Not after nine, I says, you are my appetite, ohh, K A T E
You do to me, why girl? You stuff me and I can't take no more
Man, five cheeseburgers are too much, what more, I can't dance
Katie, baby, why don't we make love instead of food?
