Hey kids, look at this!
How many tall tales I've heard
From four city animals
A dog, a cat, a mouse, and a kiskadee.
One lied more than the other, as if lying was normal
Now listen to this story
From beginning to end.

Siruliro-li
Suruliro-la
I'm a mutt
I know that
I'm the king of the square
The owner of the street
Every day I go hunting
I rummage through the can
I rummage through the trash
But for my lunch
I really like a little kitten
Very chubby and fluffy

But what a dog
Such a liar
Even afraid of cockroaches
Never hunted, never ate
Any kitten here in the square
I'm a cat, a real hunter
And every night I eat a well-fed mouse
It's my favorite dish!

But what a liar
Vain cat
Only eats kibble in her little dish
Lives the good life in the lap of her owner
Never even saw the tail of a mouse
I take advantage, I'm a smart rat
If no one's around I
Sneak under the gate
And eat all the kibble

But what is this?
So many tall tales
From this city mouse!
Creates so many stories, so many anecdotes,
And doesn't speak a lick of truth
Look at me here
Long live the kiskadee
And when the mouse arrives
I've already eaten all the kibble
And I don't leave a single grain...

And time went by
Until one day in the square
The four animals met face-to-face
The dog said woof woof
The cat replied with a meow
The mouse agreed tshi tshiu
And the kiskadee concluded with a kiskadee
It was a good idea
It was even too good
To create a chorus of animals!

So since we are
-So since we are
Such liars
-Such liars
Let's make a pact
And create together
-And create together
A story
-A story
A story for the children
That has a dog, that has a cat,
That has a mouse
And also has a Kiskadee
Starting like this….

Siruliro-li
Suruliro-la
I'm a mutt, I know that…..
