if you are wise, you will listen to me


Ayer vino la lechuza; pero no mencionó si quiera a los Tafil
mientras tanto, los ejércitos de pastillitas blancas, diminutas y ovaladas desfilaban a mi alrededor ejecutando una danza de sincronía, lamentación y odio gimiendo: "no me quieres no me quieres, chaparrita, no me quieres"
Cuando desperté mi rostro en el espejo era igual o semejante al de un umpa-lumpa...

I have a puzzle perfect for you

If you are wise
You will listen to me

What do you get when you guzzle down sweets?
Eating as much as an elephant eats
What are you at getting terribly fat?
What do you think will come of that?
I don't like the look of it

Oompa Loompa Doompadeedaa
If you're not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness, too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompadeedo

Gum chewing is fine when done once in a while
It stops you from smoking and brightens your smile
But it's repulsive, revolting, and wrong
Chewing and chewing all day long
The way that a cow does

Oompa Loompa Doompadeeda
Given good manners, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompadeedo

Oompa Loompa Doompadeedo
I have a puzzle perfect for you

If you are wise
You will listen to me

Who do you blame when your kid is a brat?
Pampered and spoiled like a Siamese cat
Blaming the kids is a lie and a shame
You know exactly who's to blame
The mother and the father

Oompa Loompa Doomadeedo
If you're not spoiled, then you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the Oompa Loompa Doompadeedo

Oompa Loompa Doompadeedo
I got another puzzle for you
Oompa, Loompa, doompadeedee
If you are wise
You will listen to me

What do you get from a glut of TV?
A pain in the neck and an IQ of three
Why don't you try simply reading a book?
Or can you just not bear to look?
You'll get no
you'll get no commercials

Oompa Loompa Doompadeedaa
If you are not greedy, you will go far
You will live in happiness too
Like the OompaOompa Loompa Doompadeedo
