The song "Tortilla Avalanche" by Parry Gripp tells the story of a fictional emergency situation that arises on Bean Dip Mountain. The situation involves an avalanche, but instead of snow, it is raining down tortilla chips. The lyrics describe the chaotic scene as the tortilla chips come crashing down the mountain, headed towards the town. People are in a frenzy, screaming for guacamole to accompany the chips. The urgency is emphasized as they shout for help and strategize ways to save the town from the impending "Tortilla Avalanche." In an attempt to save the day, the song mentions the need for two tanker trucks of guacamole and a helicopter load of nacho cheese. The goal is to eat all the chips before they reach the town, thereby preventing any destruction. Throughout the song, the lyrics encourage unity and teamwork, urging everyone to come together to tackle the situation. They believe that by acting as a team and persevering, they can taste victory and successfully stop the "Tortilla Avalanche." The song concludes with a triumphant outcome, indicating that the chips are all consumed, and the town is saved. However, there is still leftover guacamole, suggesting that they may need more chips to fully enjoy the dip. Overall, "Tortilla Avalanche" is a lighthearted and imaginative song that uses humor to depict a nonsensical emergency situation involving tortilla chips.
