No drugs used to write that.
Very nice. Good translation. I was unfamiliar with the word "chango", but "monkey" seems like a reasonable noun to apply "bald" to in the given context.
In the final line, "baila baila ya!" would probably translate better to "dance dance now!" But, heck, once you get to the ultimate word, you're either dancing too hard to care or uninterested in what pothead is singing about.

I need to find a way to make it clearer when I'm sharing stuff from other sources. I've got it set up so that when I click "share" in my Google Reader, it ends up here. You can click the "original article" link to see where things come from, but I've been meaning to find a way to make that less opaque.
