La Iguana

(original)
Una iguana se cayó de arriba de una escalera
Del porrazo que llevó se lastimó las caderas
Ay iguana mia para dónde vas
…que voy para el pueblo de soledad
Si será mentira o será verdad que en ese pueblo
No hay novedad que si lo hubiera es casualidad…
Si será tan fea, que iguana tan fea
Que se sube a un palo
Y luego se apea
Pone su huevito, lo cacaraquea
Se mete al hoyito, pa' que no la vean
Se mira en el espejo
Porque está muy fea
Haga usté lo mismo para que lo crea
A la jea jea a la jea jea
Una iguana se cayó de arriba de una escalera
Una iguana se cayó de la rama de un amate
Del porrazo que llevó se reventó los tomates
Ay iguana mía para dónde vas
…que voy para el pueblo de soledad
Si será mentira o será verdad
Que en ese puebo no hay novedad
Que si lo hubiera es casualidad…
Si será tan fea, que iguana tan fea
Que se sube a un palo, y luego se apea
Pone su huevito, lo cacaraquéa
Se mete al hoyito pa' que no la vean
Saca la patita, como que patea
Saca la colita, como que colea
Saca las uñitas, como que piuñea
Saca las narices, como narisea
Saca la cabeza, como cabesea
Saca la orejita, como que orejea
A la jea jea a la jea jea
Una iguana se cayó de la rama de un amate
(translation)
An iguana fell from the top of a ladder
From the blow that she took she hurt her hips
Oh my iguana where are you going
…I'm going to the town of solitude
If it will be a lie or it will be true that in that town
There is no news that if there were it would be a coincidence...
If it will be so ugly, what an ugly iguana
That she climbs on a stick
And then she gets off
She lays her little egg, clucks it
She gets into the little hole, so they don't see her
She looks at herself in the mirror
Because she is very ugly
Do the same for him to believe
To the jea jea to the jea jea
An iguana fell from the top of a ladder
An iguana fell from the branch of an amate
From the blow he took, the tomatoes burst
Oh my iguana, where are you going?
…I'm going to the town of solitude
If it will be a lie or if it will be true
That in that town there is no news
If there were, it's a coincidence...
If it will be so ugly, what an ugly iguana
That she climbs on a pole, and then gets off
He lays his little egg, he clucks it
She gets into the little hole so they don't see her
Take out the little leg, like it kicks
Take out the tail, like it fishtails
Take out your little nails, like you piuñea
Get your nose out, like narisea
Get your head out, how you nod
Stick out the little ear, like it's earing
To the jea jea to the jea jea
An iguana fell from the branch of an amate
