English Translation

Curupaco paco paco paco paco papagaio acordou e piscou

Curupaco paco paco paco paco papagaio woke up and blinked

Viu duas maracas "xique xique" chacoalhando um rock 'n' roll

Saw two "xique xique" maracas shaking a rock 'n' roll

Deu a meia-noite "tic tic tac" o cuco louco se tocou e atacou

It was midnight "tic tic tac" the crazy cuckoo realized and attacked

Hora da folia do bolero da magia, começou

Time for the revelry of the bolero of magic, it began

E pelo chão de "la cocina": maxixe, Pequim e feijão com arroz

And on the floor of "la cocina": okra, Beijing and rice and beans

Carnavalito de talheres dançando loucamente escravos de Jó

Carnavalito of utensils dancing wildly, slaves of Jó

Cha-cha-cha!

Cha-cha-cha!


Curupaco paco paco paco paco paco papagaio arrepiou, nem piscou

Curupaco paco paco paco paco paco papagaio got excited, didn't blink

Viu o violino fino afinando "do-ré-mi-fa-sol"

Saw the fine violin tuning "do-re-mi-fa-sol"

Liso, o sabonete, "zup zup zup" deslizando aterrissou e estufou

Smooth, the soap, "zup zup zup" sliding landed and puffed

Salsa, tango, mambo, samba pelas ondas do tapete

Salsa, tango, mambo, samba through the waves of the carpet

E pela casa da titia, o dia, de mansinho, raiou, oh oh

And at Auntie's house, the day, gently, dawned, oh oh

E era tanta correria que logo-logo a festa acabou

And there was so much hustle that the party soon ended

Só o galo cantou

Only the rooster crowed
