Torero Lyrics

Tu pierde 'o suonno 'ncopp"e giurnalette
E mamme te minaccia
E patete s'arrangia.

Te fanno gira' a' capa sti "fumette,"
Guardannote 'into' 'o specchio
Vuoi fare il toreador

Comme fanno a santafe',
Comme fanno ad "ollivud"
E cu' sta scusa, oi ni, nun studie cchiu'!...
He! torero!

Te si' piazzato 'ncapo stu sombrero,
Dice che si' spagnuolo e nun e' overo
Che nacchere 'in t"a sacca vai a balla'
Mescolando bolero e "cia'-cia' " chi vuo' 'mbruglia'!
He! torero!

Cu' sti basette a' sudamericano
Cu' 'nu sicario avana e 'a cammesella 'e picche'!...
Torero, torero, ole!

I met him on a bus in barcelona
We kinda got to talkin?
But he did all to talkin?

I asked him what he did in barcelona
In sunny barcelona
And this is what he said
You are fortunate my friend

Of this there is no doubt
For every where I go the peaple shout
Torero!
Make way for don josé the great torero

In spain I am a famous caballero
I fight the bravest bull in all the land
With flip of the hip
Of the music of the band

I cha,
The bull is so confused because I cha cha
I never kill him, only if he gets in my way
Torero, torero, ole!

I never kill him, only if he gets in my way
Torero, torero, ole!
