Vanessa da Mata "Pirraça" lyrics

Translation to:enru

Pirraça

Passa o tempo sem demoraQuando não penso nas horasOs ponteiros do relógioFazem voltas se não olho

Mas quando acendo o fogoPara fazer um caféVejo o tempo pararPra água ferverParece nunca acabar, espera sem fim

06:04; 06:05; 06:05; 06:05Esperando o apito da chaleiraVejo o tempo pararPararO tempo pirraça

Quando à tarde no trabalhoQuero que o tempo passeOs ponteiros do relógioSó me dão o tique-taque

Quando eu encontro os amigosPara tomar um caféA rapidez que não tinhaSem disfarçarParece brincadeirinhaPega-pega

Quando paro que olho as horasPara o tempo que me olhaE espero ansiosaVou comendo a casaPaçoca, suspiro, cocada, jujubaQuindim, bombom, churros, bombaPaçoca, suspiro, cocada, jujubaQuindim, bombom, churros

E vejo o tempo pararPararO tempo pirraça

Paçoca, suspiro, cocada, jujubaQuindim, bombom, churros, bomba

A Trick

Time flies* (Time goes by without a pause)if you don't think of the hours.The hands of the clockkeep turning if you don't look.

But when I heat the stoveto make a coffee,I see time stop.For boiling waterseems never to be ready, it's never done.

6:04, 6:05, 6:05, 6:05 (AM)Waiting for the kettle's whistle,I watch time stop.Stopping,it's time's trick.

In the afternoons at work,I want the time to pass.The hands of the clockjust go tick-tock.

When I meet with friendsto have coffee,nothing is so fast.There's no disguising it,it seems like a joke...Come on, come on!

When I stop to look at the time,it's time I look for,and I wait anxiously.I'll eat at home:peanut candy, milk pudding, coconut bits, jujubees,**coconut flan, sweets, churros, yerba mate tea.Peanut candy, milk pudding, coconut bits, jujubees,coconut flan, sweets, churros.

And I'll watch time stop.Stopping,it's time's trick.

Peanut candy, milk pudding, coconut bits, jujubes,Coconut flan, sweets, churros, yerba mate tea.
