Surdos Nós Vamos Ficar
Terra Celta
Navigating Life's Confusions with Humor and Wisdom
The song 'Surdos Nós Vamos Ficar' by Terra Celta is a humorous yet insightful commentary on the overwhelming amount of information and advice we encounter in modern life. The lyrics begin by acknowledging the confusion in today's world and the necessity of navigating through it to evolve. The singer emphasizes the importance of knowledge, gained through various sources like websites, magazines, and books, to understand the complexities of life and health.
As the song progresses, it humorously critiques the often contradictory and overwhelming health advice that people receive. The singer lists various activities—eating, drinking, smoking—and notes that excessive indulgence in any of these is harmful, according to what he has read. However, when it comes to sex, he humorously decides to stop reading if he encounters advice that suggests too much sex is harmful. This playful twist highlights the absurdity of trying to follow every piece of advice to the letter.
The song also pays homage to the wisdom passed down from older generations. The singer reflects on the valuable life lessons taught by his grandfather, emphasizing that true understanding of life comes not just from reading but also from listening to the experiences of elders. The song concludes with a reiteration of the earlier humorous advice, suggesting that if someone says too much sex is harmful, it's better to stop listening or even go deaf, as the singer humorously declares that he would rather die from it.
' Surdos Nós Vamos Ficar' cleverly blends humor with a critique of modern information overload, while also valuing traditional wisdom. It encourages listeners to find a balance between modern knowledge and age-old advice, all while maintaining a sense of humor about the contradictions we face in life.
