A Bailarina (Gorda) Lyrics Translation in English

Como toda bailarina ela sonhava com mil saltos mortais

Like every ballerina, she dreamed of a thousand somersaults

Os dedos do destino a desenharam gorda demais

The fingers of destiny drew her too fat

Cada salto ou pirueta era um desastre, eram risadas gerais

Each leap or pirouette was a disaster, there were general laughs

E o mais lindo vestido, tá guardado: gorda demais

And the most beautiful dress is kept: too fat

Cada bola de sorvete é tanta culpa, era remorso demais

Each ice cream cone is so much guilt, too much remorse

E os olhos do menino que ela amava, amavam magras de mais

And the eyes of the boy she loved, loved them too skinny

Cada abraço, um arrepio, ai, por um fio ele me apalpa por trás

Every hug, a shiver, oh, by a thread, he gropes me from behind

E sente a carne mole, frouxa, coxa, gorda demais

And he feels the soft, loose, thick, too fat flesh
