Bica Que Bica

Tchê Barbaridade's song 'Bica Que Bica' is a heartfelt and somewhat humorous portrayal of a man's longing and desperation for the affection of a woman he refers to as 'neguinha.' The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who is tired of his current lifestyle, which includes dealing with unattractive foreign women ('gringa feia') and living alone. He yearns for the love and companionship of the woman he serenades, expressing his desire to leave his solitary life behind.

The song is rich with cultural references and colloquial language, which adds to its charm and authenticity. The man goes to great lengths to win the woman's affection, from cleaning himself up ('tiro a ramela') to serenading her, even though it has left his mouth sore ('esfolei a minha boca em serenata'). He knows her preferences, such as enjoying a whisper in her ear ('cafungo nas oreia'), and he imagines a future with her, complete with children ('uns cinco filho').

However, the song also takes a darker turn, revealing the man's desperation. He mentions buying a scapular to pray in case their union doesn't work out and even contemplates a tragic end if they can't be together ('eu mato nóis dois num tendeu'). This blend of humor, longing, and desperation makes 'Bica Que Bica' a compelling narrative of love and the lengths one might go to attain it. The song captures the essence of rural romance and the emotional extremes that often accompany it, all wrapped in a catchy, rhythmic melody that is characteristic of Tchê Barbaridade's style.
