O Retorno de Mary Poppins - Pela Capa Não Dá Pra Ver

Uncle loved books
And lived in Charing Cross
I remember he read to me
Told me his stories
When we were alone
He was a very cultured man
And his motto was like this

Just by the cover you can't see
What a book can be
In every plot there's a secret
Only those who read will understand
Stay tuned and you'll see
The lines will tell
The story can always surprise
Don't be fooled
By the cover you can't see

Mary Poppins, would you give us an example?
Of course!

Nellie Rubina was made of wood
And gave the impression of being hollow
But kept a secret at the foot of the ground
When the petals sprouted, Mr. Hickory realized
He gave fertilizer and water
And soon Nellie flourished

Just by the cover you can't see
What a book can be
In every plot there's a secret
Only those who read will understand
Stay tuned and you'll see
The lines will tell
The story can always surprise
Don't be fooled
By the cover you can't see

Let's tell the one about the rich widow?
Uh, good reminder!
I always loved that one!
Then tell!

Lady Hyacinth buried
Her treasure by the sea
And wore only a smile
And a feather, to hide
What a beautiful strategy so no one would steal from her
Walking so naturally who could imagine

By the cover you can't see
What a book can be
In every plot there's a secret
Only those who read will understand
Stay tuned and you'll see
The lines will form

The story can always surprise
Don't be fooled
By the cover you can't see

Oh, tell us the one about the swindler, come on, Jack!
Isn't it a bit long?
Ah, start now so it ends soon

Once upon a time
In a French castle
A king who never studied, wasn't interested
He never went to school, learned nothing
Had everything at his feet, diamonds and rings
But deep down he was unhappy
Who says?
Because he didn't know
Neither how to count
Nor write
The crown only made his brain shrink
Then the queen
Started the lament
To the ladies and gentlemen
And the tutors
Present yourselves teachers
They can even be doctors
Candidates came to fulfill their duty
Taught
Explained
And he didn't learn anything
The king just floated
And the queen decreed
Cut off all heads, from doctor to teacher
It was a terror
The pain of all widows who lost their love
But one day a stranger appeared without explaining
Saying: I'm a swindler but I came to teach the king
The queen and her barons
Hated the jesters
But jester's lessons also have their reasons
You can be happy and enjoy what you already have
Don't insist on wanting to see another's life
And the king found a special friend
They celebrated as the story was coming to an end
And the moral is you know how to be happy
Always follow your nose
Unless it's crooked
It's up to you, apprentice
Believe me, I'll tell you
The important thing is to realize
That what really matters lives inside you

By the cover you can't see
What a book can be
In every plot there's a secret
Only those who read will understand

Listen well to what I'm going to say
And open a book before going to bed
And whoever wants to sing will learn
I want to hear!

Don't be fooled
There's no way to go wrong
Don't be fooled
Try to remember
Don't be fooled
By the cover you can't see
