Toddys tupé - deLillos Übersetzung ins Englische

Toddys tupé

Toddy fungerte ikke slik som de andre
Så når de ville leke ville han ligge å lese
Om de små små kryp nedi jorden

Moren til Toddy ble bekymret for skolen sa:
Gutten er gløgg, men hvorfor graver′n i jorden
Etter små små kryp å ta med hjem

Toddy's tupe
Ingen skjønte hvordan det kunne skje
Det ble en suksess
De elsket festen på hans myke tupe
Verden ble som ny for en bille
Tupeen ble en by for de ville små dyr

Tiden den gikk med sin perfekte logikk
Han ble ekspert i sitt fag og ingen bar noe nag
For her til lands var det kun han som var bra

Han snakket personlig til hver eneste flue
Og til og med en stokkmaur den kunne han kue
Både larve og dronning gjorde som han sa

Toddy′s tupe
Ingen skjønte hvordan det kunne skje
Det ble en suksess
De elsket festen på hans myke tupe
Verden ble som ny for en bille
Tupeen ble en by for de ville små dyr

Toddy's tupe
Ingen skjønte hvordan det kunne skje
Det ble en suksess
De elsket festen på hans myke tupe
Verden ble som ny for en bille
Tupeen ble en by for de ville små dyr

Toddy's toupee

Toddy didn't work like the others
So when they wanted to play he would read
About the tiny creatures in the earth

Toddy's mother was worried about school said:
The boy is bright, but why does he dig in the earth
For tiny creatures to take home

Toddy's toupee
No one understood how it could happen
It became a success
They loved the party on his soft toupee
The world was new for a beetle
The toupee became a city for the wild little animals

Time went by with its perfect logic
He became an expert in his field and no one held a grudge
Because here in this country he was the only one who was good

He talked personally to every fly
And could even subdue a wood ant
Both larvae and queens did as he said

Toddy's toupee
No one understood how it could happen
It became a success
They loved the party on his soft toupee
The world was new for a beetle
The toupee became a city for the wild little animals

Toddy's toupee
