（单词翻译:单击）

Two men, sentenced to die in the electric chair on the same day, were led down to the room in which they would meet their maker1.

The priest had given them last rites2, the warden3 had given the formal speech, and a final prayer had been said among the participants.

The warden, turning to the first man, solemnly asked, "Son, do you have a last request?"

To which the man replied, "Yes sir, I do. I love dance music. Could you please play the Macarena for me one last time?"

"Certainly," replied the warden.

He turned to the other man and asked, "Well, what about you, son? What is your final request?" "Please," said the condemned4 man, "kill me first."
