Era uma vez
Vou contar pra vocês
A história de três tristes tigres lá no xadrez
Eles comeram três pratos
Enfeitiçados com
Trinta trigos e se
Transformaram em três gatos
E pra terminar com o feitiço
Eles tinham que pronunciar
Essas frases assim bem seguidas
Sem se enrolar:
O potro e o pedro
A pedra é preta
A pátria é prata
O pablo é pablo
Era uma vez vou contar pra vocês
A história de três tristes tigres lá no xadrez
Como nunca conseguiram
Pronunciar as frases
Do feitiço que eram de amargar
Tiveram de se contentar
Em nunca mais rugir
E ao miado se confinaram
Sem nunca disto poder fugir
Então todos foram soltos
Porque agora o que eles são
Ao invés de três alegres tigres
Três tristes livres gatos são
