How do you say, "I have a Chrysler. It is as big as a Whale. It is about to set sail." ? None of the translations come up accurately.

Question

All I want is a correct, proper translation to "I have a Chrysler. It is as big as a whale. It is about to set sail." Any help is appreciated. Thank You.

That the perfect expression for the early Chryslers!! - Brynleigh, NOV 12, 2010

The actual lyric is (I believe): Hop in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale and it's about to set sail! - Stadt, NOV 12, 2010

Then: I got me a car, it seats about 20, So come on and bring your jukebox money. - Stadt, NOV 12, 2010

Answer 3

link text

The above site has someone's attempt at translation of the entire B-52's "Love Shack"- my Spanish is not good enough to judge quality.

The actual lyrics (slightly different than the translation requested):

Hop in my Chrysler,

it's as big as a whale

and it's about to set sail!

The translation at the linked site:

Súbete a mi Crysler

Que es tan grande como una ballena

Y esta a punto de zarpar

Answer 4

Zarpar

Set sail! I believe it!

Answer 5

Tengo un Chrysler. Es tan grande que una ballena. Que va a zarpar.
