Troca de Calçada
Marília Mendonça
Sidewalk Exchange
If someone passes by her
Stay silent, don't point fingers
Don't judge so soon
She has reasons to be this way
That's prejudice
She lived so much neglect
That even God doubts and cries from above
She was just a girl
Who dedicated her life to fleeting loves
Of course, she once dreamed of getting married one day
Being a shame to the family wasn't in the plans
Each one who passed by took a piece of her life
And what was left she sells on the corner
To have a warm body
I froze my heart
To hide the sadness
Waterproof makeup
Today you see me like this and cross the street
But loving hurts much more
Than disgust on your face
To have a warm body
I froze my heart
To hide the sadness
15cm heels and miniskirt
Today you see me like this and cross the street
But if you knew a third of the story
You'd hug me instead of stoning me
