El Alacrán

They cut off its little claws, yes sir!
They cut off one of its legs, yes sir!
And why not another leg, yes sir!
They cut off its little eyes, yes sir!
And some are yellow, yes sir!
And some are green, yes sir:
And I keep asking myself, what?
How do you kill it, and you say you kill it like this?
Swat, oh, swat, oh, swat, swat, swat.
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
Come on, all you gentlemen
To kill the scorpion
What a dangerous creature!
For the fools and the wise.
It lurks around at night
And during the day it hides.
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
They cut off its little claws, yes sir!
They cut off one of its legs, yes sir!
And why not another leg, yes sir!
They cut off its little eyes, yes sir!
And some are yellow, yes sir!
And some are green, yes sir!
And I keep asking myself, what?
How do you kill it, and you say you kill it like this?
Swat, oh, swat, oh, swat, swat, swat.
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
Come on, all you young men
To bury the scorpion
They killed it for being spicy
And now it doesn't sting anymore.
Everyone goes out at night
To take down the scorpion.
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you
The scorpion, the scorpion
The scorpion's gonna sting you.
