We don't talk about others, no, no, no!
We don't talk about others... but
It was a cloudy day
It was a cloudy day
We were getting ready to go outside
And then it started thundering
We had to stay inside

I'm sorry the bad weather made me feel droopy.
It made my tear come out of my face.
It made me feel unhappy because I wanted to go play outside.
My mother brings umbrellas to share with each other to be kind to one another
I shared my umbrellas with my friends to play outside.
My friends and I jumped around in puddles outside
We dance and party like the fourth of July!

We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no!
We don't talk about Bruno... but

It was my wedding day
It was our wedding day
We were getting ready, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky
No clouds allowed in the sky
Bruno walks in with a mischievous grin-
Thunder!
You telling this story, or am I?

I'm sorry, mi vida, go on
Bruno says, "It looks like rain"
Why did he tell us?
In doing so, he floods my brain
Abuela, get the umbrellas
Married in a hurricane
What a joyous day... but anyway

We don't talk about Bruno, no, no, no!
We don't talk about Bruno!

We don't talk the same way
We don't talk the same way....but

It was a sunny day
We were playing at the park
I wanted to make a friend, but
I was nervous.
Sam is there and is willing to be a friend.

I'm sorry, my new friend, I don't understand you
I use my hands to talk.
How can we communicate?
Mai and Sam start to realize how they can communicate.
In doing so, Sam learns many new things.
Friends in the park.
What a joyful day... we were so excited.

We don't talk the same way
We don't talk the same way....but now
can talk the same way sometimes.
