Primeiro de Abril

I turn off the TV, tired of seeing
Always the same guy lying
Shampoo commercials just showing off
For models with straight hair
They turned our Jesus Christ
Into a surfer with green eyes
And then the taxi won’t stop for us
For us, it only stops for the Blazer service
Standards for women and girls
Blonde host from the network
Where the black and fat
Only served for the kitchen and the broom
They fooled you when they said
That life in the slums was good
That a soccer player
Should earn more than a teacher
Disaster in the mountain region
Mud invades Mariana
But even today what’s remembered
Is the 7-1 against Germany
If you think being gay is a disease
You’re sicker than you think
The real sick one is the congressman
Who embezzles school lunch funds
Cops abuse their power
Every stoner is a thief
But the hot girls bring beer
In TV commercials
Scandal in CBF, Petrobras, and Mensalão
April first should be election day
They lied, Black Day isn’t Monday
They lied, hip-hop isn’t just shaking your ass
Who told these idiots
That the idiots don’t sink
We came to show
That lies have short legs

Take that fake smile off your face
Turn off the TV, stop and hear my view
That not always the gun is in the hand of the shooter
And sometimes the solution is to do what you believe

It’s all one big lie
Turn off the TV, stop and hear my view
That not always the gun is in the hand of the shooter
And sometimes the solution is to do what you believe

You come at me with diseases and vaccines
Newspapers, TV, radio, and the internet
Even in school they teach me
That without a good car from this year
Without money and fame, there’s no good girl
And the worst part, you’re masters at this!
In the police report on the national cinema screen
Only the role of a criminal
That slum dwellers have a tendency
That medicine is only for the boss's kids
That respect and honor is having a spot on the team
For you, it’s only salmon
For us, it’s just the bus
The show asks for a thousand bucks
Spending twenty million dollars, dollars
Filming the poor there without a home, poor there without a home
If even the law doesn’t work
Only if it’s Friboi, only if it’s prayboy
Fake journalism, the Panicats seduce you
Media hammer dictating what’s good and bad
Santa Claus, new Playstation
Raping another boy
Crisis, headache, and the blame is always on the mosquito
Because of 20 cents the mute found his voice
Saw the World Cup and went blind right after
Anorexic girl, being a rich man is the technique
That’s what intoxicated you, the trick was the church and politician's tactic
Says that right is peaceful protest
Pretend to fool me and I’ll pretend to believe

Take that fake smile off your face
Turn off the TV, stop and hear my view
That not always the gun is in the hand of the shooter
And sometimes the solution is to do what you believe

It’s all one big lie
Turn off the TV, stop and hear my view
That not always the gun is in the hand of the shooter
And sometimes the solution is to do what you believe
