O Pulso
Arnaldo Antunes
The Pulse
The pulse still beats
The pulse still beats...
Bubonic plague
Cancer, pneumonia
Rage, rubella
Tuberculosis and anemia
Rancor, cysticercosis
Mumps, diphtheria
Encephalitis, pharyngitis
Flu and leukemia...
And the pulse still beats
And the pulse still beats
Hepatitis, scarlet fever
Stupidity, paralysis
Toxoplasmosis, measles
Schizophrenia
Ulcer, thrombosis
Whooping cough, hypochondria
Syphilis, jealousy
Asthma, kleptomania...
And the body is still not enough
And the body is still not enough
Like this...
Rheumatism, rickets
Cystitis, arrhythmia
Hernia, pediculosis
Tetanus, hypocrisy
Brucellosis, typhoid fever
Arteriosclerosis, myopia
Chickenpox, guilt, cavity
Cramp, leprosy, aphasia...
The pulse still beats
And the body is still not enough
Still beats
Still not enough
Like this...
