I Am A Worm (Gusano)
I am a worm
The wondrous worm
It’s down under
I like to squirm
To eat the dead
And the living’s my toil
And what comes out makes magnificent soil
Ole!
Gu-san- no-no, no-no-no, no-no-no, no-no, no
Si!
Gu-san- no-no, no-no-no, no-no-no, no-no, no
Si!
I aerate the earth as I tunnel and squirm
I am proud to be called a worm!
Ole!
Our tunnels flood
It rains all night
Come up for air
We’re killed by light
When people die
Worms attend in full
But no one comes to a worm’s funeral
Ole!
A robin’s cute
Have you not heard?
Of the massacres
Of the early bird
We do such good
From us you could learn
But you make us fish bait in return
Ole!
