Lyrics

There was a man lived in the moon, in the moon, in the moon.
There was a man lived in the moon and his name was Aiken Drum.
And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle.
And he played upon a ladle and his name was Aiken Drum.

And his hair was made of spaghetti, spaghetti, spaghetti.
His hair was made of spaghetti and his name was Aiken Drum.
And his eyes were made of meatballs, meatballs, meatballs.
His eyes were made of meatballs and his name was Aiken Drum.

And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle.
He played upon a ladle, and his name was Aiken Drum.

And his nose was made of cheese, cheese, cheese.
His nose was made of cheese and his name was Aiken Drum.
And his mouth was made of pizza, pizza, pizza.
His mouth was made of pizza and his name was Aiken Drum.

And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle.
He played upon a ladle, and his name was Aiken Drum!

There was a man lived in the moon, in the moon, in the moon.
There was a man lived in the moon and his name was Aiken Drum.

Había un hombre en la luna, en la luna, en la luna
Había un hombre en la luna, se llamaba Don Simón
Sabía tocar el cucharón, el cucharón, el cucharón
Sabía tocar el cucharón, se llamaba Don Simón

Su cabello era de espagueti, espagueti, espagueti
Su cabello era de espagueti, se llamaba Don Simón

Sus ojos eran de albóndiga, albóndiga, albóndiga
Sus ojos eran de albóndiga, se llamaba Don Simón

Sabía tocar el cucharón, el cucharón, el cucharón
Sabía tocar el cucharón, se llamaba Don Simón

Su nariz era de queso, de queso, de queso
Su nariz era de queso, se llamaba Don Simón

Su boca era de pizza, de pizza, de pizza
Su boca era de pizza, se llamaba Don Simón

Sabía tocar el cucharón, el cucharón, el cucharón
Sabía tocar el cucharón, se llamaba Don Simón
Había un hombre en la luna, en la luna, en la luna
Había un hombre en la luna, se llamaba Don Simón
