A Bossa Nova É Foda
Caetano Veloso
Bossa Nova is Awesome
The wizard from Juazeiro in a cave of the laurel tree
(Who will have had this sandy farm?)
Cassette tapes, an exercise bike, some oxtail leftovers
Outside the world still twists to face the equation
Pure invention
Fashion dance
Bossa nova is awesome
The great ancient Greek instrument says that when you arrive here
That it's a gift that many men don't have, that it's influenced by jazz
And it doesn't matter if the romantic Jewish bard from Minnesota
Swineherd Eumaeus recognizes him back to Ithaca
Our life will never be the same
Samba-de-roda
Neo-Carnival
São Francisco River
Rio de Janeiro
Sugarcane field
Bossa nova is awesome
The tone of everything commands the waves of the sea
Sound waves with which it colors in space
Cruel man, destroyer, of intense, monumental brightness
Gave the poet, old prophet, the key to the ammunition house
The old man transformed the myth of the sad races
Into Minotaurs
Junior Cigano
Into José Aldo
Lyoto Machida
Vítor Belfort
Anderson Silva
And the whole thing
Bossa nova is awesome
Bossa nova is awesome
Bossa nova is awesome
Bossa nova is awesome
Gave the poet, old prophet, the key to the ammunition house
The old man transformed the myth of the sad races

And the whole thing
