Tarzan (o filho do alfaiate)

Noel Rosa Noel Rosa

Tarzan (the tailor's son)

Who said I was strong?
I never played sports, don't know football...
My partner has always been the pillow
And I spend the whole year without seeing a ray of sun
My brute strength lies
In a classic hanger, tired of suffering
My armor is made of hard cashmere
It gives me muscles, but it's heavy and hurts

I pose for photographers, and give autographs
To all the girls on the beach in the morning
An Argentine said, seeing me in Copacabana:
'There is no superhuman force that can stop this Tarzan'

I don't understand fights at all
Because my great tailor doesn't make clothes for fighting
I'm incapable of hurting an ant
No man can grab my muscles
I even got hired
To go up on a stage, to beat a champion
But the company, to avoid murder
Tore up my contract as soon as they saw me without a robe

I pose for photographers, and give autographs
To all the girls on the beach in the morning
An Argentine said, seeing me in Copacabana:
'There is no superhuman force that can stop this Tarzan'

Who said I was strong?
I never played sports, don't know football...
My partner has always been the pillow
And I spend the whole year without seeing a ray of sun
My brute strength lies
In a classic hanger, tired of suffering
My armor is made of hard cashmere
It gives me muscles, but it's heavy and hurts
