Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Conheço gente que tem uma nota

I know people who have a bill

E vive chorando miséria

And live crying poverty

E eu penso comigo: Que coisa feia

And I think to myself: How ugly

Chorar de barriga cheia

Crying with a full stomach


Tem gente que chora tendo de tudo

There are people who cry having everything

Que chora até quando cobra

Who cry even when collecting

E um monte de gente que não tem nada

And a bunch of people who have nothing

E vive do pouco que sobra

And live on what little is left


Um monte de gente que vive ralando

A bunch of people who live toiling

Pastando, comendo grama

Grazing, eating grass

E um outro punhado que vive

And another handful who live

Chorando embaixo de um monte de grana

Crying under a pile of money


Eu só falei nisso porque me lembrei

I only mentioned it because I remembered

De ouvir quando era criança

Hearing it when I was a child

Fazendo manha, que coisa feia

Being capricious, how ugly

Chorar de barriga cheia

Crying with a full stomach
