Belém, Pará, Brasil

Belém, Pará, Brazil

Composition: Edmar Rocha

They will destroy Ver o Peso and build a shopping center
They will tear down Palacete Pinho to build a condominium
Poor Cidade Velha that was sold to Hollywood
To be used as a hostel in a new Spielberg movie

Whoever wants to come see
But only one at a time
We don't want our alligators
Tripping over you

The blame is on the mentality
Created about the region
Why do so many people fear it?
North is not spelled with an 'M'
Our indigenous people don't eat anyone
Now it's just hamburgers
Why doesn't anyone take us seriously?
Only our ore?

Whoever wants to come see
But only one at a time
We don't want our alligators
Tripping over you

Here we drink guaraná when there's no Coca-Cola
Enough of earthly things, what's good comes from abroad
Transformed to the core without culture and opinion
The Northerner just wanted to be part of the nation
Ah, enough of wrongdoings
Ah, enough of sad rhymes
Give back our culture
We want the North up there
Because, where have you ever seen?
This is Belém
This is Pará
This is Brazil
