São Paulo Motoboy
Manu Chao
São Paulo Motoboy
Biker arrives
Before the rain falls
Biker delivers
And escapes in the air
Speeding
Speeding
Marginal Avenue, motoboy on the track, playing with fate
Killer and fast heat, a shock absorber in every curve
Life in the rearview mirror, never stops, ant in action
My bike is a plane
São Paulo drowned, damn traffic, broken flow
My bike is a plane
Biker arrives
Before the rain falls
Biker delivers
And escapes in the air
Speeding
Wet, tough, damn asphalt
Looking sideways, scraped knee
My bike is a plane
Surfing the 'minhocão', speed bump and off to the sky
Bumper hits the ground
Biker arrives
Before the rain falls
Biker delivers
And escapes in the air
Speeding
Speeding
So many people at the stop, so many people injured
Motoboy fell to the ground, fell into the smoke
Fell and got up, the painful knee
Headlight broken, so much adrenaline, gasoline smell
Flying scrap, my bike is a plane
Speed bump and off to the sky
Bumper hits the ground
Biker arrives
Before the rain falls
Biker delivers
And escapes in the air
Speeding
Biker arrives
Speeding
Before the rain falls
Speeding
Biker delivers
Speeding
And escapes in the air
Biker arrives
