Portuguese Lyrics

English Translation

Cada história era um sinal

Every story was a sign

Que o menestrel inventa

That the minstrel invents

E eu era assim, meio anormal

And I was like that, somewhat abnormal

Achava que ia ser herói

Thought I was going to be a hero

Fumando hollywood

Smoking Hollywood

Vendendo saúde

Selling health

Navegando doido

Sailing crazy

Doido, doido, doido

Crazy, crazy, crazy

E sujo de sal

And dirty with salt

Cada filme era fatal

Each movie was fatal

Voava década de oitenta

Flying through the eighties

Rumo ao seu final

Toward its end

E achava que ia ser herói

And thought I was going to be a hero

Fumando hollywood

Smoking Hollywood

Vendendo saúde

Selling health

Navegando doido

Sailing crazy

Doido, doido, doido

Crazy, crazy, crazy

E sujo de sal

And dirty with salt

Cada louco é se não fosse também aqui

Every madman is, if it weren't also here

Chuva de colibri eu sou um louco santo, ah!

Shower of hummingbirds, I am a holy madman, ah!

Eu te amo e jazz

I love you and jazz

Por trás, onde trás do sol

Behind, where behind the sun

Nosso sonho de voar

Our dream of flying

Era uma história estranha

Was a strange story

Que eu sempre quis decifrar

That I always wanted to decipher

Mas hoje conto sem pensar

But today I tell without thinking

Que a explicação que eu sei que se não há

That the explanation I know, if there isn't

Sobra luz nesse caos de paixões

Excess light in this chaos of passions


No centro de um planalto vazio

In the center of an empty plateau

Como se fosse em qualquer lugar

As if it were anywhere

Como se a vida fosse um perigo

As if life were a danger

Como se houvesse faca no ar

As if there were a knife in the air

Como se fosse urgente e preciso

As if it were urgent and necessary

Como é preciso desabafar

As it is necessary to vent

Qualquer maneira de amar varia

Any way of loving varies

E Léo e Bia

And Leo and Bia
