Miscellaneous
Partido Alto
(Chico Buarque, 1972)
Says he gave, says he gives
Says God will give
No I'm going to doubt it, oh deny
and if God doesn't give
How will it be, oh deny
Say that God says he gives
And if God will deny, oh deny
I'm going to be indignant and that's enough
God will give, God will give
God is a joking guy, he loves jokes
So to throw me into the world , he had the whole world
But he thought it was very funny to make me a goatherd
In the belly of misery, I was born a drummer
I'm from Rio de Janeiro
Jesus Christ still gives me Pay me, one day you'll explain to me
How did you put this poor thing into the world
I'm going to run around the world, give you some hominy
Which is to see if anyone cares? lulls you to the snoring of your cuíca
And that hug for those who stay
God made me a weak, toothless and ugly guy
Simply skin and bones, almost without stuffing
But if someone He challenges me and puts his mother in the middle
I walk three by four and I don't even get messed up
That I'm already fed up
God gave me a hand velvet to caress
God gave me a lot of longing and a lot of laziness
God gave me long legs and a lot of malice
To chase a ball and escape the police
A I'm still in the news someday
André Velloso - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
