Piranha

I've already told you, piranha
That your strength is not in saltwater
It's in fresh water, on the other side of the river

Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught
Are you listening, piranha?
Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught

I don't want anymore
That fake woman for me
She ate all my flesh
Left my skeleton standing

And I, who was the owner of a mulatto
Like a guitar type
She played card games of ronda
Drank cachaça and fought with her hands

Are you listening, piranha?

Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught
Are you seeing, piranha?
Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught

When I was well-off
Her life was just to kiss me
But after I went broke
The cunning one took me out of the game

I only know that a woman is like a snake
Has venom of poison
Leaves the rich in misery
And the poor without shame

Are you listening, piranha?

Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught
Are you seeing, piranha?
Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught

I struggle my whole life
To support this woman
And she still tells everyone
That I'm a total fool

And I who buy eggnog, jelly
Oatmeal, cornstarch, and Catupiry
All this I give to the mulatto
So she has the strength to talk about me

Are you listening, piranha?

Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught
Are you seeing, piranha?
Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught

The woman of one and another
When he goes on a trip
She gives him a little kiss on the forehead
And then puts another in his place

I only know that the woman who deceives the man
Deserves to be imprisoned in the colony
Ear cut off, head shaved
Carrying stones to feel ashamed

Are you listening, piranha?

Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught
Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught

Are you listening, piranha?

Piranha doesn't thrive in the sea, piranha
Only in fresh water it's caught
