English Translation

Gostava de música americana

I liked American music

Ia pro baile dançar todo fim-de-semana

I went to the dance to dance every weekend


Manuel

Manuel

Foi pro céu

Went to heaven

Manuel

Manuel

Foi pro céu

Went to heaven


Ia pro trabalho cansado

He went to work tired

Às 6 da manhã

At 6 in the morning

Ouvia no seu rádio

He heard on his radio

Calcinhas e sutiã

Panties and bra

No rádio era um funk

On the radio, it was a funk

O trem tava lotado

The train was crowded

Pensou no seu salário

He thought about his salary

Ficou desanimado

He became disheartened


Se eu fosse americano

If I were American

Minha vida não seria assim

My life wouldn't be like this


Manuel

Manuel

Foi pro céu

Went to heaven

Manuel

Manuel

Foi pro céu

Went to heaven


Dia após dia, ouvia a sua vó lhe falar

Day after day, his grandma told him

O mundo é fabuloso, o ser humano é que não é legal

The world is fabulous, humans are just not nice

No rádio era um funk, o trem tava lotado

On the radio, it was a funk, the train was crowded

Pensou no seu salário, ficou desanimado

He thought about his salary, became disheartened

Se eu fosse um político, minha vida não seria assim

If I were a politician, my life wouldn't be like this

Não, não, não, não

No, no, no, no


Manuel

Manuel

Foi pro céu

Went to heaven

Manuel

Manuel

Foi pro céu

Went to heaven
