Gal Costa "Brasil" lyrics

Translation to:enfr

Brasil

Não me convidaramPra essa festa pobreQue os homens armaram pra me convencerA pagar sem verToda essa drogaQue já vem malhada antes de eu nascer

Não me ofereceramNem um cigarroFiquei na porta estacionando os carrosNão me elegeramChefe de nadaO meu cartão de crédito é uma navalha

BrasilMostra tua caraQuero ver quem pagaPra gente ficar assimBrasilQual é o teu negócio?O nome do teu sócio?Confia em mim

Não me convidaramPra essa festa pobreQue os homens armaram pra me convencerA pagar sem verToda essa drogaQue já vem malhada antes de eu nascer

Não me sortearamA garota do FantásticoNão me subornaramSerá que é o meu fim?Ver TV a coresNa taba de um índioProgramada pra só dizer "sim, sim"

BrasilMostra a tua caraQuero ver quem pagaPra gente ficar assimBrasilQual é o teu negócio?O nome do teu sócio?Confia em mim

Grande pátria desimportanteEm nenhum instanteEu vou te trair(Não vou te trair)

Brazil

I was not invitedTo this shabby partyPut out by these men to persuade meTo blindly payFor all this crapDappled even before I was even born

I was not even offeredA cigaretteI just stood by the door parking carsI was not electedManager of anything anywhereMy credit card is shaped like a knife

BrazilShow me your real faceI want to see who will ultimately payFor us to keep going like thatBrazilWhat is your real business?Who are your partners?Have faith on me

I was not invitedTo this shabby partyPut out by these men to persuade meTo blindly payFor all this crapDappled even before I was even born

I was not chosenGirl of the week on TVI was not bribed eitherWill that be the end of me?To watch TVAmongst the nativesProgrammed to blindly say “yes, yes”

BrazilShow me your real faceI want to see who will ultimately payFor us to keep going like thatBrazilWhat is your real business?Who are your partners?Have faith on me

Great unimportant motherlandNot even for a secondI will betray you(I won’t betray you)
