The song "La Vida Es Una Tómbola" by Marisol and another version, for Diego Maradona, by Manu Chao is the most famous example. (Life is a raffle)
There's a line in "Evita" that goes: "She won't help the hungry once a month at your tómbolas / she'll simply take control as / you disappear" (It's from "The Actress Hasn't Learned the Lines").

Get the tomboy gf mug.A Tomás is a headstrong young man, originating from a Spanish speaking country occasionally mistaken for Mexico. He generally holds one or more black belts, and is applauded for his tendency to present multiple sides of himself to various friend groups. He is never seen without a rubik's cube and reads Anime, even though he's Latino. He never permits himself to be wrong and is literally good at everything except being normal. He has a very wide taste in music and video games, which he spends a considerably large amount of time playing. He also claims to have never been kissed, although there is evidence that shows otherwise, leaving his friends skeptical. He has a passionate love for ice cream, polygamy and writing insignificant essays, which critics speculate take the place of his love life. Many believe that he may actually be asexual as a result. He is a very competitive person and drives all of his friends up the wall. He also cries in a high pitched voice when he doesn't get what he wants. Nonetheless, he's still a cool kid.
