Short Friends

Amigos Bajitos

I have a short friend, very short, very short, very shortYo tengo un amigo bajito, bajito, bajito, bajito
He doesn't sleep in a bed, he sleeps in a cribÉl no duerme en cama, duerme en cuna
And still has plenty of spaceY aun así le sobra mucho espacio
He can't reach the cookies, always has a ladder nearbyA coger las galletas no llega, siempre tiene cerca una escalera
And uses it to cook, and to look out the windowY la usa para cocinar, y para asomarse a la ventana
In a regular bathtub, not longEn bañera normal, nada largos
In a pool, the shallow end covers himEn piscina, lo llano le tapa
In the deep end, he dives with NitroxEn lo ondo, bucea con Nitrox
Fits entirely in a lockerCabe entero en medio casillero
Always has to show IDSiempre tiene que enseñar papeles
Because no one believes he's an adultPorque nadie le cree que sea adulto
Because he buys all his clothes in the children's departmentPorque se compra toda la ropa en el departamento de niños
Goes to concerts to see the headsVa a conciertos a ver las cabezas
And goes to the movies to see the headsY va al cine a ver las cabezas
In the car, he can't reach the pedalsEn el coche, no da a los pedales
On a bike, he can't reach the pedalsEn la bici, no da a los pedales
To order a gin and tonic, difficultPa' pedir un gin tonic, difícil
To pay a fine, difficultPa' pagar una multa, difícil
And people look down on himY la gente lo mira hacia abajo
And shout: Where are you going, midget?Y le gritan: ¿Dónde vas enano?
And they want to use him as a tableY le quieren usar de mesita
And the girls want to carry himY las chicas lo quieren cargar

But, but, but, butPero, pero, pero, pero
No one beats him at horseback riding because he's a professional jockeyNadie le gana montando a caballo porque es yóquey profesional
And earns a fortune every yearY se gana un pastón cada año
Always donates 30%Siempre dona el 30%
Also, he has a golden tongueAdemás, tiene pico de oro
That gets him out of many problemsQue le saca de muchos problemas
He's very charming with the girlsMucha labia tiene con las chicas
And several fall in love with himY varias se enamoran de él
If you drop something, he picks it up for you¿Se te cae algo?, Te lo recoge
Says he's closer to the groundDice que está más cerca del suelo
Plays limbo and always winsJuega limbo y siempre te gana
Never has back problemsNunca tiene problemas de espalda
And is comfortable on planesY va cómodo en los aviones
Very comfortable on busesVa muy cómodo en los autobuses
And always helps you in any way he canY te ayuda siempre en lo que puede
Because he has a big heartPorque tiene un gran corazón

I have a short friend, very short, very short, very shortYo tengo un amigo bajito, bajito, bajito, bajito
