Seu Jorge "Brasis" lyrics

Brasis

Tem um Brasil que é prósperoOutro não mudaUm Brasil que investeOutro que suga...

Um de sungaOutro de gravataTem um que faz amorE tem o outro que mataBrasil do ouroBrasil da prataBrasil do balacochêDa mulata...

Tem um Brasil que é lindoOutro que fedeO Brasil que dáÉ igualzinho ao que pede...

Pede paz, saúdeTrabalho e dinheiroPede pelas criançasDo país inteiro

Tem um Brasil que socaOutro que apanhaUm Brasil que sacaOutro que chutaPerde, ganhaSobe, desceVai à luta bate bolaPorém não vai à escola...

Brasil de cobreBrasil de lataÉ negro, é branco, é nisseiÉ verde, é índio peladãoÉ mameluco, é cafusoÉ confusãoÉ negro, é branco, é nisseiÉ verde, é índio peladãoÉ mameluco, é cafusoÉ confusão...

Oh pindorama eu queroSeu porto seguroSuas palmeirasSuas feiras, seu caféSuas riquezasPraias, cachoeirasQuero ver o seu povoDe cabeça em pé...

The Brazilian Faces

Brazil has a prosperous faceAnd another one that doesn't changeAnother one that investsAnd another one that absorbs

Another one that wears a SpeedoAnother one that wears a suit and tieIt has a face that makes loveAnd another one that killsA face that earns a gold medalA face that earns a silver medalA face that swingsLike that mulatto woman...

Brazil has a beautiful faceBut it has another one that stinksThe face that givesLooks the same as the one that asks...

It asks for peace, healthJob opportunities and wealthIt asks for the childrenScattered all around the country

Brazil also has a face that punchesAnd another that is punchedA face that understandsAnd another that scores by chanceOne that loses, one that winsOne that goes up, one that goes downOne that plays the gameBut doesn't go to school...

A Brazil made of cooperA Brazil made of tinIt's black, it's white, it's OrientalIt's green, it's as nude as an indigenous manIt's a caboclo1, it's a cafuso2It's a confusionIt's black, it's white, it's OrientalIt's green, it's as nude as an indigenous manIt's a caboclo, it's a cafusoIt's a confusion...

Oh, pindorama3, I wantTo harbor safely in youYour palm treesYour nuns, your coffee beansYour wealthBeaches, waterfallsI want to see your peopleWith their head lifted up
