Catch the Thief!

"- Your Excellency, now explain, but don't complicate!
- Your Excellency, I already explained! I didn't see that list.
I affirm with the utmost certainty and sincerity
That I never saw that list!
I don't know about that list, I don't want to know, and I'm angry at those who do!
Anyone who says I saw that list is a liar,
And will have to prove it! And if they do, they'll have to deal with me!"

Catch the thief! In the Government!
Catch the thief! In the Congress!
Catch the thief! In the Senate!
Catch them in the Chamber of Deputies!
Catch the thief! On the Podium!
Catch the thief! In the Court!
It's because of these guys
That people are hungry
That people are killing
And so on...

Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Misery only exists because of corruption!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Take them out of Power, Put them in prison!

And you, a mere mortal
Leading a nice little life
Has anyone ever asked you for 1 real?
Has anyone ever robbed you at the traffic light?
Do you think things are going badly?
Or are you satisfied?
Do you think this is all normal?
Do you think the country is hopeless?
Here there are no earthquakes
Here there are no volcanoes
Here the weather is good
Here there is a lot of land
Here there are good people
Here there are honest people
But in power, there are people who are no good

"I was elected and represent the Brazilian people.
Trust me to take care of the money."

Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Misery only exists because of corruption!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Take them out of Power, Put them in prison!

Remove this scoundrel from the executive power!
Remove this scoundrel from the judiciary!
Remove this scoundrel from the legislative power!
Take them out of power because I'm tired of being a fool!
Remove this scoundrel from municipal power!
Remove this scoundrel from state government!
Remove this scoundrel from federal government!
Take their money and increase my salary!

"- Do you see this sensational mansion?
I bought it with money diverted from the hospital.
- Ah! And my safe full of dollars?
It's the money that was supposed to build another school.
- You need to see my farm! I bought it only with money from the school meals!
- And my big son? A million just for allowance!
All with money from abandoned children.
- And my wife doesn't bankrupt me
Because I cover that hole with the Social Security deficit.
- Your Excellency, haven't you seen my plane?
I bought it with funds that were meant to build a prison!
- And the overcrowding?
- The people's problem! Don't we have immunity? It doesn't affect us."

Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Misery only exists because of corruption!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Take them out of Power, Put them in prison!

Misery only exists because of corruption
Unemployment keeps increasing because of corruption
Violence only explodes because of so much misery and unemployment
Because of so much corruption!

"Everyone who knows me knows very well that I do not accept
The enrichment of the poor and the impoverishment of the rich."

And you, who were born in this country
And dream and work to be happy
Do you pay attention to what the candidate says?
Or do you vote for anyone, you idiot?
And after the election, do you demand results?
Or do you stand there with your arms crossed?
Do you remember who you voted for as a deputy?
And who you put in the Senate?

Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Misery only exists because of corruption!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch!
Catch, catch the thief!
Catch, catch
Catch, catch the thief!
Take them out of Power, Put them in prison!

"- As you suspected, I did see that list.
I saw it, but I didn't read it. And I'll say more, I swallowed it.
So that no one else would read it either. And it was with the best of intentions.
I circumvented the Law, but with all honesty!
- Your Excellency swallowed the list?
- Well, I put it inside my body,
In a safe and dark place. So that for all intents and purposes,
In this way, I reserve the right
Not to say anything more. Everything is published in the annals.
- But yesterday you said you didn't see the list.
Today you say you saw the list. And tomorrow you...
- Ah! Tomorrow no one will remember!
And the case of the list will enter the list of cases,
The cases that were left behind..."
