3ª Do Plural Lyrics Translation in English
Humberto Gessinger
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Corrida pra vender cigarro
Race to sell cigarettes
Cigarro pra vender remédio
Cigarettes to sell medicine
Remédio pra curar a tosse
Medicine to cure the cough
Tossir, cuspir, jogar pra fora
Cough, spit, throw it out
Corrida pra vender os carros
Race to sell cars
Pneu, cerveja e gasolina
Tire, beer, and gasoline
Cabeça pra usar boné
Head to wear a cap
E professar a fé de quem patrocina
And profess the faith of those who sponsor
Querem te matar a sede, eles querer te sedar
They want to quench your thirst, they want to sedate you
Eles querem te vender, eles querem te comprar
They want to sell you, they want to buy you
Quem são eles?
Who are they?
Quem eles pensam que são?
Who do they think they are?
Corrida contra o relógio
Race against the clock
Silicone contra a gravidade
Silicone against gravity
Dedo no gatilho, velocidade
Finger on the trigger, speed
Quem mente antes diz a verdade
Who lies first tells the truth
Satisfação garantida
Satisfaction guaranteed
Obsolescência programada
Planned obsolescence
Eles ganham a corrida antes mesmo da largada
They win the race even before the start
Eles querem te vender, eles querem te comprar
They want to sell you, they want to buy you
Querem te matar de rir, querem te fazer chorar
They want to make you laugh, they want to make you cry
Quem são eles?
Who are they?
Quem eles pensam que são?
Who do they think they are?
Vender, comprar, vendar os olhos
Selling, buying, blindfolding your eyes
Jogar a rede... contra a parede
Throwing the net... against the wall
Querem te deixar com sede
They want to leave you thirsty
Não querem te deixar pensar
They don't want you to think
Quem são eles?
Who are they?
Quem eles pensam que são?
Who do they think they are?
