HECTOR AYALA was a superhero
You probably don't remember him
He was Puerto Rican, from La Isla
Boricua puro puro
His hero name was the White Tiger
so maybe that's why you forgot

Hector Ayala was a college student
He went to the same school Peter Parker went
So, Hector Ayala was a good role model and all
But his powers came from some mystical jade amulets
these three superdudes threw in the trash
A head and two paws Hector took out of the garbage
Imagine if the cops caught him then
They would've asked for a receipt y se jodio . . .

White Tiger was a master of martial arts
White Tiger wore a head-to-toe white costume
Yeah, blanco, todo blanco
White Tiger’s ethnic face, mustache, afro,
totally hidden behind a mask of white

His girlfriend's name was Holly

He fought street gangs, drug dealers,
He fought a dude named the Prowler
He never got a shot against Galactus
or Thanos or anyone big like that
White Tiger was just an urban superhero
A superhero from the 'hood
Later on they said he developed
an unhealthy addiction to the amulets
Wow, an addicted Puerto Rican
Thank you, Marvel Comics

Spider-Man was his friend
Daredevil was his lawyer
But in the end Hector Ayala
was convicted of murder
because he lost his temper on the stand
That hot Latino temper was his kryptonite.
Then the cops shot him
when he was trying to escape
This is not the kind of thing
that ever happens to Batman.
Later on they proved Hector was innocent
But by then it was too late
Anyway, it was nice for a little while
to have a Latino superhero
even a white one.
