Cocorito

Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
So' rimaste sulo 'e penne
Sulo 'e penne rosse e gialle
E mo' è pure balbuziente
E' cacaglio 'o pappavallo
E cocorito cocorito
Cu' 'na scella de lignamme
Deperito deperito
Tene l'uocchie gialle 'e famme
Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente

Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
Se chi 'o tene è 'nu francese
O si è 'nu portoricano
M"o purtasse a fine 'o mese
Ca me trovo a positano
E una noche de febbraio
A lisbona in portogallo
Miez"e suone e miez"e balle
S'arrubbaine 'o pappavalle
Cocorito
S'e' perdido
S'e' s'e' s'e' s'e' perdido
Co co corito
Cocorito
S'e' perdido
S'e' s'e' s'e' s'e' perdido
Co co corito

Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cu è guaglione faceva 'o pirata
Ne spennava trenta 'o juorno
Mo' cammina cu è penne acalate
Se vede tene 'e corne
E don oreste suo fratello
Tene 'e penne rosse e gialle
Fa 'o pagliaccio a circo equestre
Sfiziusiello ma cacaglio
E cocorito cocorito
Cu' 'na scella de lignamme
Deperito deperito
Tene l'uocchie gialle 'e famme
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
Se chi 'o tene è 'nu francese
O si è 'nu portoricano
M"o purtasse a fine 'o mese
Ca me trovo a positano
Cocorito cocorito

Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla
Cocorito s'e' perdido
Non mi resta ormai piu' niente
Senza lui sono finito
Oh ma che fato fetente
Cocorito cocorito
E' nu' viecchio pappavallo
E' scampato a tanta guerre
S"o 'rrubbaine 'a copp"a spalla

Cocorito cocorito!

Cocorito

Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
Only the feathers are left
Only the red and yellow feathers
And now he is also stuttering
He's pooping, the parrot
And little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
With a wooden ladder
Dejected, dejected
He has yellow eyes of hunger
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate

Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
If whoever has him is French
Or if he is Puerto Rican
He should bring him to me at the end of the month
Because I'm in Positano
And one night in February
In Lisbon, Portugal
Between the sounds and between the dances
They stole the parrot
Little Cockatoo
He's lost
He's he's he's he's lost
Li li little Cockatoo
Little Cockatoo
He's lost
He's he's he's he's lost
Li li little Cockatoo

Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
When he was a kid, he was a pirate
He used to pluck thirty a day
Now he walks with his feathers down
You can see he has horns
And Don Oreste, his brother
Has red and yellow feathers
He plays the clown at the equestrian circus
Fussy but he poops
And little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
With a wooden ladder
Dejected, dejected
He has yellow eyes of hunger
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
If whoever has him is French
Or if he is Puerto Rican
He should bring him to me at the end of the month
Because I'm in Positano
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo

Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo
He's an old parrot
He's escaped from so many wars
They stole him from my shoulder
Little Cockatoo is lost
Nothing is left for me anymore
Without him I am finished
Oh, what a bad fate
Little Cockatoo, little Cockatoo!
