Visje, visje, in het water,
Visje, visje, in de kom.
Visje, visje, kan niet praten,
Visje, visje, draai je om.
Fishy, fishy, in the water,
Fishy, fishy, in the bowl.
Fishy, fishy, cannot talk sir,
Fishy, fishy, turn around so.
Visje heeft zich omgekeerd,
Omgekeerd, omgekeerd.
Visje heeft zich omgekeerd,
Dat heeft ie van jou geleerd!
Fish is swimming back again,
Back again, back again.
Fish is swimming back again,
For that’s what he’s learned from you!
Walvis, walvis, in het water,
Walvis walvis, in de zee.
Walvis walvis, kan niet praten,
Walvis walvis, draai maar mee.
Blue whale, blue whale in the water,
Blue whale, blue whale in the sea.
Blue whale, blue whale cannot talk sir,
Blue whale, blue whale turn round like me.
Walvis heeft zich omgekeerd,
Omgekeerd, omgekeerd.
Walvis heeft zich omgekeerd,
Dat heeft ie van jou geleerd!
Whale is swimming back again,
Back again, back again.
Whale is swimming back again,
For that’s what he’s learned from you! |
