(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
Fui passear
No país do tatu-bola
Onde o bicho tem cachola
E até sabe falar
Eu vi um porco
Passeando de cartola
Um macaco na escola
Ensinando o bê-a-bá
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
Eu vi um peba
De batina e de estola
Vi um bode de pistola
Numa farda militar
Vi um mosquito
Ser pegado pela gola
E ser preso na gaiola
Por ser bebo e imorá
(Lá no mar)
Vi vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
Eu vi um sapo
Balançando uma sacola
Num salão pedindo esmola
Pro enterro dum preá
Vi uma porca
Com dois brinco de argola
De batom mas que graçola
Dando beijos num gambá
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
Numa oficina
Vi um rato bater sola
Repicando na viola
Eu vi um tamanduá
Vi um veado
Com dois par de castanhola
Vestidinho de espanhola
Requebrando pra daná
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
Vi um elefante
Cozinhar na caçarola
Armoçar todo frajola
E a dentuça palitar
Vi um jumento
Beber vinte coca-cola
Ficar cheio que nem bola
E dar um arroto de lascar
(Lá no mar)
Vi vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri jogando bola
(Lá no mar)
Vi dois siri bola jogar
Translation
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
I went for a walk
In the country of the armadillo
Where the creature has a big head
And even knows how to speak
I saw a pig
Strolling with a top hat
A monkey at school
Teaching the ABCs
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
I saw a peba
In a cassock and stole
I saw a goat with a pistol
In a military uniform
I saw a mosquito
Being caught by the collar
And being imprisoned in a cage
For being drunk and immoral
(Out in the sea)
I saw, I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
I saw a frog
Swinging a bag
In a hall asking for alms
For the burial of a preá
I saw a sow
With two hoop earrings
With lipstick, what a funny sight
Kissing a skunk
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
In a workshop
I saw a rat beating soles
Playing the viola
I saw an anteater
I saw a deer
With two pairs of castanets
Dressed as a Spanish woman
Swaying like crazy
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
I saw an elephant
Cooking in a casserole
Having lunch all dapper
And the buck-toothed one picking teeth
I saw a donkey
Drink twenty Coca-Colas
Get full like a ball
And let out a ripping burp
(Out in the sea)
I saw, I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs playing ball
(Out in the sea)
I saw two crabs play ball
