Admirável Gado Novo

Admirable New Cattle
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
You who are part of this herd
That moves through the future's plans
It's tough having to walk so far
And give much more than you get
And having to show your courage
On the edge of whatever might come
And see that all this machinery
Is already feeling the rust eat away
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
Outside, the weather's nice
The watchful eye keeps things normal
Cars hear the news
Men publish it in the papers
They wander through the night
The only old age that has arrived
They linger by the roadside
And start counting what’s left
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
The people flee from ignorance
Even though they live so close to it
And dream of better days gone by
They contemplate this life in a cell
They wait for a new chance
To see this world come to an end
The "Noah's Ark," the airship
Don’t fly, nor can they float
Don’t fly, nor can they float
Don’t fly, nor can they float
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
Eh, oh, oh, life of cattle
People marked, eh
Happy people
