La Farolera

The lamplighter stumbled and fell in the street
And passing by a barracks, she said fuck you to a colonel
At midnight, I started counting
But all the counts were wrong

And two and two are four, four and two are six
Six and two are eight, and eight sixteen
And six and two are eight, and eight thirty-two
Blessed soul, I don't kneel before you

Lamplighter, lamplighter, lamplighter, lamplighter
Stumbled

To the east and to the west it rains, it will rain
A flower, a celestial flower in the jacaranda tree
The squirrels laugh hahahaha!
Because the wind tickles them in the jacaranda tree
Where? In the jacaranda tree
Where? In the jacaranda tree
Where? In the jacaranda tree
Where?

Lamplighter, lamplighter, lamplighter, lamplighter
Stumbled

Hello, Mr. Pepito
Hello, Mr. José
Have you already passed by my house?
I passed by your house
And did you see my grandmother?
I didn't see your grandmother
Goodbye, Mr. Pepito
Goodbye, Mr. José

Lamplighter, the lamplighter, the lamplighter, the lamplighter
Stumbled

We are invited to have tea
The porcelain teapot, but it's not visible
The milk is cold, and I'll warm it up
I'll put on my long overcoat, long down to the feet
Be careful when you drink, it will spill
Your nose inside the cup, but it's not right

Lamplighter, the lamplighter, the lamplighter, the lamplighter
The lamplighter, the lamplighter, the lamplighter, the lamplighter
Stumbled
