Subject: Lyr Add: PEPINO THE ITALIAN MOUSE (Lou Monte)
Thought you would like to have a complete lyrics and translation of Pepino.
Singore e signori io mi chiamo pepino u suriciello
Ladies and Gentlemen my name is Pepino the Little Mouse.
And what a milingana (eggplant)
Pepino o you little mouse o won't you go away,
Find yourself another house to run around and play
You scare my girl you eat my cheese you even drink my wine,
I try so hard to catch you but you trick me all the time.
Ce sta nu suricillo a basuccella de nu muro
There lives a little mouse in a wall
Ogna sere qu' illu esce quand a casa e scura
Every evening he comes out when the house is dark
Indu menzu la cucina balla sulasu
In the middle of the kitchen dances all alone
A parrano malandrino pur a hata a paura
Looks like a bad boy even the cat has fear
Pepino u suricilo ma fatu scubari,
Pepino the little mouse embarrassed me
Managa u suricillo a ca sina da hi
Darn the little mouse from here he has to go
Sta sira inda cucina nu po divino agio lashia
Tonight in the kitchen a little wine I haveto leave
E quando si briagga a Pepino agia ngapa
And when he gets drunk Pepino I gotta catch
Ma tu chi si Siciliano?
But are you Sicilian?
No! I'ma Calabrese you nut!
The other night I called my girl I asked her could we meet,
I said lets go to my house we could have a bite to eat,
And as we walked in through the door she screamed at what she saw,
There was little Pepino doing the cha cha on the floor.
Pepino u suricilo ma fatu scubari,
Managa u suricillo a ca sina da hi
Sta sira inda cucina nu po divino agio lashia
E quando si briagga a Pepino agia ngapa
Ma como se viva?
But how do you drink it?
If I ever catch you I'ma gonna throw you right in a bangnarol (wash tub)
Ello non chi piacia u formagio American
He doen't like American Cheese
Ello va trovanu nu poco parmigian
He goes lookin for a bit of parmisan
Se fato chiato chiato gusto di tambur
He's gotten chubby chubby like a drum
E quando illu camina para proprio nu galanduom
And when he walks, looks like a proper gentleman
Pepino u suricilo ma fatu scubari,
Managa u suricillo a ca sina da hi
Sta sira inda cucina nu po divino agio lashia
E quando si briagga a Pepino agia ngapa
Eurizi (The guy's name) I gatta present for you
Ah youra nice mouse
Close your eyes
Now purre your hands in the pocket
Oooo managia us suricillo ma scachiato a mano
Oooo darn the little mouse smashed my hand
A mouse trap
Oi Mari (few words of an Italian song.
Eh malandrino!
Eh bad boy!
Oi Mari
