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
