"The Mexican" connects a couple guys that "smooched" Madonna. In different eras. Different eras of smooching.

Babe Ruth - King Kong (1972) Written by Frank Zappa. 

John Lennon released "King Kong" on his 1972...album...Some Time In New York City. But by the time the album came out, the name of the song was now "Jamrag". They were just jammin', man. Why'd Frank get all hung up?

From Ultimate Classic Rock: When Some Time in New York City was released, Zappa was surprised that "King Kong" was now called "Jamrag" – British slang for a sanitary napkin – and credited to Lennon and Ono.

"After they had sat in with us, an arrangement was made that we would both have access to the tapes," Zappa said. "He wanted to release it with his mix, and I had the right to release it with my mix – so that's how that one section came about. 

"The bad part is, there's a song that I wrote called 'King Kong' which we played that night, and I don't know whether it was Yoko's idea or John's idea, but they changed the name of the song to 'Jamrag,' gave themselves writing and publishing credit on it, stuck it on an album and never paid me," Zappa added. "It was obviously not a jam session song: It's got a melody, it's got a bass line; it's obviously an organized song. Little bit disappointing."
