Mixing Songs

The sun is out

And the wind is blowing hard

So we stay inside

A Chameleon is being tattooed on my arm

Little girl playing on the floor

Laughter surrounds us

Funny things are being said

Everything we do, she wants too

Look auntie, Dorothy also has a tattoo

Isn't she so cute?

But the pain is now filling my brain

She looks at me wild eyed

Smiles and strokes my hair

Don't worry, she says

When you are done, you just have to eat

And it will all be fine

She's two and a half, so smart

She talks like a tagarela

Blending languages

Nao fecha seus eyes

And we all laugh and we are done

Que lindo! She says looking

At my green Chameleon

Auntie, will you sit next to me in the car?

She grabs my hand and this way we walk

She sings the whole way home

Mixing songs until she's asleep
