Mi ex amigo Albertito

This is the story
of a very proper boy
this happened to my ex-friend Albert

we spent all day
playing cops and robbers
he was always the cop
he was 20 years old and his father would say

it's a career with a future
kid, look at how the world is

one day he disappeared
and we didn't see Albertito anymore
according to what the old man told me
he went to military school

and he left
he left
he left
he left
he left
he left
we never saw him again

one day on the street I found Albertito
I asked him what he had been up to
and he said, 'stop messing around!'

he had his hair well-cut
got a fresh shave
and below, his nice shoes shone

Albertito became a soldier
none of us ever greeted him again
Albertito is a general lieutenant
Albertito, if it were up to me, you can go to hell
