Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Era uma vez um lobo mau

Once upon a time there was a bad wolf

Que resolveu jantar alguém

Who decided to have someone for dinner

Estava sem vintém

He was penniless

Mas arriscou

But took a chance

E logo se estrepou

And soon got into trouble


Um chapeuzinho de maiô

A little red riding hood in a swimsuit

Ouviu buzina e não parou

Heard a horn and didn't stop

Mas lobo mau insiste

But the bad wolf insists

E faz cara de triste

And puts on a sad face

Mas chapeuzinho ouviu

But little red riding hood listened

Os conselhos da vovó

To grandma's advice

Dizer que não pra lobo

Saying no to the wolf

Que com lobo não sai só

That with a wolf, you're not alone


Lobo canta, pede

The wolf sings, begs

Promete tudo, até amor

Promises everything, even love

E diz que fraco de lobo

And says that the wolf's weakness

É ver um chapeuzinho de maiô

Is seeing a little red riding hood in a swimsuit


Mas chapeuzinho percebeu

But little red riding hood realized

Que o lobo mau se derreteu

That the bad wolf melted

Pra ver você que lobo

To see that you, the wolf

Também faz papel de bobo

Also play the fool


Só posso lhe dizer

I can only tell you

Chapeuzinho agora traz

Little red riding hood now brings

O lobo na coleira

The wolf on a leash

Que não janta nunca mais

So he never dines again


Lobo bobo

Silly wolf
