The Legend
I'm gonna tell you the legend of the weird bitch
Don't know if you believe it, she's not ugly (nor pretty)
But I'm gonna tell you the legend of the weird bitch
Don't know if you believe it, she's not ugly (nor pretty)
She always desired to have such a promising life
Disobeyed her father, mother, the State, the teacher
She threw everything up in the air, faced the consequences
Because to be free and happy, you gotta work your ass off, screw yourself
She's only foolish in her appearance and way of walking
But she knows that to succeed, studying alone isn't enough
Studying, studying, studying non-stop
So clever, this queer, studying alone isn't enough
Physically weak, much more than daring
This queer is a molotov, the gang of the rejected
Do I look pretty? (looks funny)
Do I not look pretty? (looks funny)
I dressed up so much to be applauded but so far, they've only laughed
Do I look pretty? (looks funny)
Do I not look pretty? (looks funny)
I dressed up so much to be applauded but so far, they've only laughed
Abandoned by her father, raised by her aunt
While her mother was a maid, a fierce Alagoan
Makes do with what she has, washes clothes, dishes, and the floor
Spends the day cooking for the lady and the boss
I was expelled from the church (she was disfellowshipped)
Because 'one rotten apple spoils the bunch'
I had everything to go right and even sold myself out
Today, my body, my rules, my scripts, my folds
I'm the one who makes them
Do I look pretty? (looks funny)
Do I not look pretty? (looks funny)
I dressed up so much to be applauded but so far, they've only laughed
Do I look pretty? (looks funny)
Do I not look pretty? (looks funny)
I dressed up so much to be applauded but so far, they've only laughed
Do I look pretty? (looks funny)
Do I not look pretty? (looks funny)
I dressed up so much to be applauded but so far, they've only laughed
Do I look pretty? (looks funny)
Do I not look pretty? (looks funny)
