Lyrics[]
Brazilian Portuguese original
English translation
[Verse 1]
Se faço a coisa certa
Espero a coisa se acertar
Não me queixo, não me entrego
Sei que nada vai mudar
O dia está ali e o sol brilha
Calor tá de matar
O povo corre, o bicho pega, a cobra vai fumar
[Hook]
Cerveja boa bem gelada
[Verse 2]
À noite, temo até a minha sombra
Concreto céu acima, atrapalha o horizonte
Se a gente se der mal, notícia de jornal
Liquidação no preço da tua vida
[Pre-chorus]
Na quarta, como feijoada
[Chorus]
Mas tem sexta, tem sábado, tem que sair cedo
E os olhos de quem vejo não são (?)
Mas quando a coisa pega e o bicho pega
As coisas ficam bem pequenas
Sorte de quem não ficou pra trás
[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
If I do the right thing
I wait for the thing to get right
I don't complain, I don't surrender myself
I know nothing will change
The day is there and the sun shines
The heat is unbearable
The people run, things go intense,[1] the snake will smoke[2]
[Hook]
A nice, cold beer
[Verse 2]
At night, I fear even my shadow
A concrete sky above disturbs the horizon
If we get unlucky, newspaper headlines
Your life's price off
[Pre-chorus]
On Wednesdays I eat feijoada
[Chorus]
But there's Friday, Saturday, we need to leave early
And the eyes of those I see are not (?)
But when things go intense
Things get very small
Those who were not left behind are lucky
[Instrumental]

Notes[]
↑Literally: "the beast catches" (o bicho pega), which is Brazilian Portuguese slang with a difficult-to-translate meaning. Its general sense is of something intense or dramatic happening.
↑A cobra vai fumar (literally "The snake will smoke") is Brazilian Portuguese slang for unexpected or unlikely things happening, originally refering to Brazil's participation in World War II.
