Lyrics
English
Hide your eyes and count to ten
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again
Hide your eyes and count to ten
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again,
And again and again and again.
I will jump and hide from you
I will chase you round and round
Skip in time, play peek-a-boo
Ready or not, you're found!
I will chase you here and there
I will chase you everywhere
Inside, outside, up and down
Catch me if you can!
Hide your eyes and count to ten
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again
Hide your eyes and count to ten
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again,
And again and again and again.
Simon says move on the spot
Don't let Simon see you stop
Simon says move faster now
If he sees you, stop, you're out.
Hide your eyes and count to ten
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again
Hide your eyes and count to ten
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again,
And again and again and again.
Catch me, catch me,
Catch me if you can.
Catch me, catch me,
Catch me if you can!
Hide your eyes and count to ten.
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again.
Hide your eyes and count to ten.
Ready or not, I'm gonna find you again,
And again and again and again.
Catch me if you can!
Find you again and again and again and again.
Spanish
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez,
Otra vez, otra vez, otra vez.
De ti me esconderé
Tambien te perseguiré
Esconderse y hacer buh
Te encontré escondido.
Tambien te asustaré
En todas partes estaré
Es abajo y arriba
Tú támbien lo harás.
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez,
Otra vez, otra vez, otra vez.
Simón dice hay que saltar
Si él lo dice no puedes parar
Simón dice hay que apurar
No pares de jugar.
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez,
Otra vez, otra vez, otra vez.
No pares, no pares,
No pares de jugar.
No pares, no pares,
No pares de jugar.
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez
Cubre tus ojos, cuenta a diez
Listo o no, te encontraré otra vez,
Otra vez, otra vez, otra vez
¡No pares de jugar!
Lo haré otra vez, otra vez, otra vez, otra vez.
Portuguese
Até dez eu vou contar
Pronto ou não, já posso te procurar
Sem olhar eu já contei
Pronto ou não, agora te procurei, procurei,
Te encontrei, te peguei.
Vou correndo me esconder
E você vai ter que me achar
Se te encontro eu grito: Buuu!
Te peguei, ganhei!
Eu te pego se eu quiser
Eu te pego onde estiver
Quem será que vai ganhar?
Pegue-me se puder
Até dez eu vou contar
Pronto ou não, Já posso te procurar
Sem olhar eu já contei
Pronto ou não, agora te procurei, procurei,
Te encontrei, te peguei.
Vou correr no mesmo lugar
Faça tudo que o mestre mandar
Mais depressa sem parar
Se você errar é tchau!
Até dez eu vou contar
Pronto ou não, já posso te procurar
Sem olhar eu já contei
Pronto ou não, agora te procurei, procurei,
Te encontrei, te peguei.
Você não me pega, eu já falei.
Você não me pega, eu já ganhei!
Até dez eu vou contar
Pronto ou não, já posso te procurar
Sem olhar eu já contei
Pronto ou não, agora te procurei, procurei,
Te encontrei, te peguei.
Pronto já ganhei!
Te procurei, procurei
Te encontrei, já ganhei!
