Me and the Mosquito

I love attention and acceptance, I'm human after all

Companionship can be transcendent with any creature, big or small

But I would rather be unknown to one persistent chaperone

Make me incognito when it's me and the mosquito

I like to think I'm kinda playful, disinclined to confrontation

My heart is tenderly respectful of every living incarnation

But when this minute sucker bites, I won't be reading its last rites

Finito when it's me and the mosquito

No, no, no getting under my skin

No, no, no, I'll do you in

Si te quedas aquí, si te quedas así

Un golpecito, no más mosquito

Every species somehow must by Mother Nature come alive

But if it's just the two of us, I'd rather only one survive

Every mortal has its mystery and some redeeming feature

There is inherent quality to every natural living creature

But I won't know no doggone rest until I kill this little pest

No veto when it's me and the mosquito

No, no, no getting under my skin

No, no, no, I'll do you in

Si te quedas aquí, si te quedas así

Un golpecito, no más mosquito
