Translation to:en

Chiclete com Banana

Só ponho bebop no meu sambaQuando o tio Sam pegar no tamborimQuando ele pegar no pandeiro e no zabumbaQuando ele entender que samba não é rumbaAí eu vou misturar Miami com CopacabanaChicletes eu misturo com bananaE o meu samba vai ficar assim

Bebop, bebop, bebopBebop, bebop, bebopBebop, bebop, bebopQuero ver a grande confusãoBebop, bebop, bebopBebop, bebop, bebopBebop, bebop, bebopÉ o samba-rock, meu irmão

Mas em compensaçãoQuero ver o boogie-woogie de pandeiro e violãoQuero ver o tio Sam de frigideiraNuma batucada brasileiraQuero ver o tio Sam de frigideiraNuma batucada brasileira

Gum with Banana

I'll only put Bebop in my sambaWhen Uncle Sam hits the tambourineWhen he hits the pandeiro1 and the zabumba drumWhen he understands that samba isn't rumbaThen I'll mix up Miami and CopacabanaGum I'll mix with bananaAnd my Samba will stay that way

Bebop, Bebop, BebopBebop, Bebop, BebopBebop, Bebop, BebopI want to see the big confusionBebop, Bebop, BebopBebop, Bebop, BebopBebop, Bebop, BebopIt's the Samba-Rock, my brother

But in compensationI want to see the boogie-woogie in pandeiro and guitarI want to see Uncle Sam in the frying panIn a Brazilian Batucada2I want to see Uncle Sam in the frying panIn a Brazilian Batucada
