Camisa Listrada
Assis Valente
Striped Shirt
He put on a striped shirt and went out on the town
Instead of having tea and toast, he drank some Parati
He had a pocket knife on his belt and a tambourine in hand
And he smiled when people said: chill out, lion, chill out, lion
He took off his doctor’s ring to avoid the gossip
And went around saying I want to suck
Mommy, I want to suck, mommy, I want to suck
He had a pocket knife on his belt and a tambourine in hand
And he smiled when people said: chill out, lion, chill out, lion
He took my hot water bag to make a pacifier
Ripped my velvet curtain to make a skirt
Opened the closet and tore up my underwear
And even made a banner from a broomstick
For his parade
Now the drumming is starting, I won’t allow it, I won’t stand for it
My dear mocking me
Because he takes my stuff, it’s gonna cause a stir
Dresses up like Antonieta and dances at the Bola Preta
Until the sun comes up
