Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Ele escolheu a noite linda

He chose the beautiful night

A melhor roupa que ele tinha

The best clothes he had

E decorou 40 linhas

And memorized 40 lines

De coisas que ela nunca ouvia

Of things she never heard

Abriu a porta em cortesia

He opened the door courteously

Jantaram no La Bela Sintra

They dined at La Bela Sintra

Ele a tratou como rainha

He treated her like a queen

Mas ela quis dormir sozinha

But she wanted to sleep alone


Porque elas escolhem

Because they choose

Elas decidem

They decide

Elas permitem

They allow

Elas proíbem

They forbid

Elas que sabem

They know

Quem vai ser sapo

Who will be a toad

Quem vai ser príncipe

Who will be a prince


O outro foi no dia de chuva

The other one was on a rainy day

De chinelo, camisa e bermuda

In flip-flops, shirt, and shorts

Marcou as onze e chegou às duas

He set for eleven and arrived at two

Contou piada sem graça nenhuma

Told a joke without any fun

Do carro não pagou as multas

Didn't pay fines for the car

Jantaram no trailer na rua

They dined at the trailer on the street

Ele sem pretensão nenhuma

He had no intention at all

Mas ela disse vou ser sua

But she said, "I'll be yours"


Porque elas escolhem

Because they choose

Elas decidem

They decide

Elas permitem

They allow

Elas proíbem

They forbid

Elas que sabem

They know

Quem vai ser sapo

Who will be a toad

Quem vai ser príncipe

Who will be a prince


Porque elas escolhem

Because they choose

Elas decidem

They decide

Elas permitem

They allow

Elas que sabem

They know


Porque elas escolhem

Because they choose

Elas decidem

They decide

Elas permitem

They allow

Elas proíbem

They forbid

Elas que sabem

They know

Quem vai ser sapo

Who will be a toad

Quem vai ser príncipe

Who will be a prince


Porque elas escolhem (elas escolhem)

Because they choose (they choose)

Decidem (porque elas permitem)

Decide (because they allow)

Permitem (porque elas que sabem)

Elas que sabem

They know
