Getting Dressed Song

María Elena Walsh

Canción Para Vestirse

A levantarse,
Dijo la rana,
Mientras espiaba
Por la ventana
Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón.

Un pajarito
Que está en la cama
Busca el zapato
Bajo la rama
Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón.

Aupa, dijeron
Cuatro ratones,
Y se quitaron
Los camisones
Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón.

No hallo mi flauta,
Protestó el grillo,
Y la tenía
En el bolsillo.

Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón
Una gallina
Muerta de risa
Se pone el gorro
Y la camisa
Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón

Medio dormido
Dice el morrongo:
"Cuando madrugo
Siempre rezongo"
Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón.

Y el sapo dice:
"¡Qué disparate,
Desayunarse
Con chocolate!"

Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón
Tira con tirita
Y ojal con botón

Getting Dressed Song

Get up,
Said the frog,
While spying
Through the window
Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button.

A little bird
That is in bed
Looks for the shoe
Under the branch
Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button.

Up, said
Four mice,
And they took off
Their nightgowns
Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button.

I can't find my flute,
Protested the cricket,
And he had it
In his pocket.

Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button
A hen
Laughing out loud
Puts on the hat
And the shirt
Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button

Half asleep
Says the morrongo:
"When I wake up early
I always grumble"
Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button.

And the toad says:
"What nonsense,
To have breakfast
With chocolate!"

Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button
Pull with a band-aid
And button with a button
