A Mulher Bonita e a Mulher Feia

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman
Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman is the one who attracts the most attention
She may be poor, living in a shack
But she's the one who makes a man feel a great emotion
And they say the ugly woman even gives stomachaches
Wherever she goes, she quickly starts a fight
She's always swaying like an ant's butt

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman is the one who gets the most attention
When she walks down the street, she catches the guys' eyes
Everyone wants to whistle at her, not caring if she's married
They say the ugly woman, when she gets whistled at
It's by someone even uglier than her, but she gets excited
She comes home and says 'Mom, today I was complimented'

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman likes to go natural
And is lucky in her job, always getting a government job
Sometimes she earns millions for doing commercials
They say the ugly woman has a hard time finding a job
When she does, she earns little, she's ugly and has no peace
And sometimes she has a husband who wants to live off her

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman makes a man fall in love
The man feels like he's in heaven when he's with her
And they make love in the morning without thinking about the past
They say the ugly woman is bad for the heart
And whoever marries an ugly woman always sees ghosts
Dreams of falling out of bed and hitting their face on the floor

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman makes any man moan
But moan with emotion, joy, and pleasure
And the man in her arms feels the reason to live
They say the ugly woman is afraid of being alone
Thinks a lot about getting married, puts on makeup and takes it off
And the more she paints herself, the more she looks the same

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman is the life of the party
A beautiful woman wherever she goes is clean, trail, and arrest
But if there's an ugly woman, it's a sign the party won't be good
They say the ugly woman, when she's jealous
If her husband is handsome and she can't keep him
When she goes out with him, she kicks like a mule

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman has an attractive gaze
Smells like an apple, has an innocent smile
And with that, she can tame any brave man
They say the ugly woman is afraid of being abandoned
Snores like a pig when she falls asleep
An ugly woman and a mule, only the owner looks for them

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman makes a man go crazy
Makes the man go mad, makes the man grow wings
Forgets about his parents and the ugly woman he has at home
They say the ugly woman, when she's jealous
Starts by breaking dishes, hitting everything
And sometimes kills her husband while he sleeps in the early morning

Sing Caju and Castanha in the wave of the high tide
Sing for the beautiful woman as I sing for the ugly woman

They say the beautiful woman, when she gets a boyfriend
He's either the mayor's son or a deputy's son
And she quickly gets a gift, a new imported car
They say the ugly woman goes to the dance hall
Gets tangled up with a poor guy and spends the whole night there
Ends up tying the knot with a poor dust-covered guy
