lyrics or other text:
1. Ya murió la cucaracha,
Ya la llevan a enterrar,
Entre cuatro zopilotes
Y un ratón de sacristán
Coro:
La cucaracha, la cucaracha,
Ya no puede caminar;
Porque no tiene, porque le falta
Marihuana que fumar
1. Heard the cockroach kicked the bucket,
And the funeral packed the house,
He was buried with four buzzards
Right next to the sexton's mouse
Coro:
La cucaracha, that little cockroach,
O his home he'll never leave
Because to travel without a real roach
To smoke, he just can't conceive.
