Alpinista Social Lyrics Translation in English
Lenine
Portuguese Lyrics
English Translation
Apesar da idade ela nunca se cansa
Despite her age, she never tires
De entrar nessa dança e sair no jornal
Of entering this dance and making it to the newspaper
E tem sempre um plano por debaixo do pano
And always has a plan under the tablecloth
Ela é a alpinista social
She's the social climber
Vira a noite no drink a pensar no over-night
She spends the night at the bar thinking about the overnight
No high-fi do society ela rodou
In the high society hi-fi, she circulated
Plástica no nome pra não dar vexame
Aesthetic surgery in her name to avoid embarrassment
De francês só conhece belle mondeau
From French, she only knows "belle mondeau"
E jacques cousteau tanto a chegar
And Jacques Cousteau took so long to arrive
No sopé da montanha principal
At the foot of the main mountain
Ela se preza, ajoelha e reza
She prides herself, kneels, and prays
Para ser a alpinista social
To be the social climber
Lá vai ela, nas pegadas da moda
There she goes, following the footsteps of fashion
Na alta roda, quer passar sem pedigree
In high society, she wants to pass without pedigree
Defasada, mas é boa aluna
Outdated, but a good student
Topa qualquer uma nesta festa de subir
She accepts any at this climbing party
Vira a noite no drink a pensar no over-night
She spends the night at the bar thinking about the overnight
No high-fi do society ela rodou
In the high society hi-fi, she circulated
Plástica no nome pra não dar vexame
Aesthetic surgery in her name to avoid embarrassment
De francês só conhece belle mondeau
From French, she only knows "belle mondeau"
E já que custou tanto a chegar
And since it cost so much to arrive
No sopé da montanha principal
At the foot of the main mountain
Ela se preza, ajoelha e reza
She prides herself, kneels, and prays
Para ser a alpinista social
To be the social climber
