Twist Del Mono Liso
María Elena Walsh
Twist of the Smooth Monkey
You know, you know what he did
The famous smooth monkey
On the edge of a ditch
He caught an orange alive
What courage, what value
Although he forgot the knife
In quince jam
He hunted her with a fork
The orange walks around
From the living room to the dining room
Don't throw a knife at me
Throw me with a fork
At dinner time
The orange felt sorry for him
The plain monkey was so good
That he didn't want it for dessert
The brave hunter
He ordered his entourage
That they keep her alive
In the refrigerator
The orange walks around
From the living room to the dining room
Don't throw a knife at me
Throw me with a fork
Plain monkey in the kitchen
With Chinese patience
He tamed her day by day
The orange did not learn
Plain jumpsuit with rigor
He finally pushed her a little bit
And he took his first little step
The orange without error
The orange walks around
From the living room to the dining room
Don't throw a knife at me
Throw me with a fork
The orange, plain jumpsuit
I showed it on the floor
Other times, visiting
He carried her in his little cage
But one day a thief came in
Can you imagine what he did?
The brave smooth monkey said
Oh, what a mess!
The orange walks around
From the living room to the dining room
Don't throw a knife at me
Throw me with a fork
To the court of the foolish king
He went to complain about the robbery
Liar, the king promises
That has the big bonnet
Because yes, with frenzy
Suddenly he says monkey
There it is behind the throne
The orange I lost
The orange walks around
From the living room to the dining room
Don't throw a knife at me
Throw me with a fork
And the queen without permission
Of the brave smooth monkey
He hid it in a soup tureen
The orange stroller
Plain monkey saved her
But by force of tapioca
The orange was crazy
And this story is over
The orange walks around
From the living room to the dining room
Don't throw a knife at me
Throw me with a fork
