Ozomatli
"Chango (English Translation)"


The other day, I saw a man
An ugly man who looks like a monkey
He's hairy down to his belly
And his back looks like a forest

But wow, what an ugly monkey, but look at him…
But how he dances, with that ugly face,
how is he dancing like that?

The other day, I say him dancing with a monkey woman, a beautiful monkey
but how well he dances with his monkey, hairy partner, but how they jump…look

Look at him over there…what an ugly monkey
But look at him
But how does he dance with that ugly face, how is he dancing like that?

The other day, I saw a man
An ugly man, they call him Chepe, he's hairy down to his belly
And his back looks like a forest

But wow, what an ugly monkey, but look at him
But how we dances, how he enjoys himself, but he keeps on dancing

The other day, I saw him dancing with a monkey, four monkeys, four monkeys, five monkeys, six monkeys, eight monkeys, five monkeys, nine monkeys, eight monkeys, ten monkeys, eleven monkeys

But wow, what an ugly monkey, but look at him… But how he dances, with that ugly face, how is he dancing like that? But what an ugly monkey, but look at him

He's ugly, but he dances so well
