É Mentira Desses Loco

"Ha ha ha!
As my late father used to say
When the 'election' approaches
The politicians start preparing 'the speeches'
Yes... Ha ha ha!"

They're saying that "after" the election
They'll fight for the people who are already in despair
And that money won't be lacking for the poor anymore
They'll make sure there's food on the table for "the Brazilians"

And they're saying that if they are "elected"
This suffering people won't regret anymore
That they'll make "new plans", "new works"
The salary will double soon, those who vote for them will see

It's a lie from "these crazy people"!
There are only angels in heaven
They are politicians as a hobby
In the end, we find out
That they stole a lot

But it's a lie from "these crazy people"
They kick more than a colt!
They are politicians as a hobby
In the end, we find out
That they stole more than the others

"Ha ha ha!
Everyone wants to steal more, right?
Ha ha ha!"

And they're telling my father-in-law, my mother-in-law
That any fool deceives me and I'm always in trouble, trouble
That I'm in trouble and the weeds punish me
I get drunk, I pick fights and the gang treats me badly

And they're saying that I'm loaded
Committing "some sins" that can't even be counted
I live to party without caring about the children
No one trusts me anymore and my wife will leave me

It's a lie from "these crazy people"
The family is doing well
Pumpkin, chayote, and cassava
Black beans with ground peanut
There's always food at the ranch

But it's a lie from these crazy people
My girl loves me
But since I live like a skunk
For her to be able to stand me
She also lives tipsy!

"Ha ha ha!
To endure the stench
She has to take a few sips too, right?
Ha ha ha! A partner is for these times"

And they're saying that I don't go to church much
That it's better for people to see me pray more
And even "the brothers" want to fill me with examples
They want to drag me to the temple to change my religion

"Give ten percent of your salary to the brotherhood
They'll show you the truth, free you from bad luck
Cry at the Lord's house
So that in a 'shout' the pastor removes the devil from your body"

It's a lie from "these crazy people"
To me, this is absurd
First, the talk is about money
And then they make a fuss
Thinking that God is deaf

But it's a lie from "these crazy people"
They want my money
And I get so angry
There's no devil in my body
There's only God in my body!

"That's it, brother!
Mind your own business and I'll mind mine!"

And they're saying that I sing quite well
I'm getting in tune and writing very well
That there's no one better than me in my style
That I can relax because success will come soon

And they're saying that my verses are top-notch
That I should wait, that it's possible to reach consecration
That inspiration renews itself every day
They even say that I should already be on TV

It's a lie from "these crazy people"
They're trying to deceive me
But I'm not a fool
I know I'm out of tune
Even to talk

(Ha ha!)

But it's a lie from "these crazy people"
Thinking I'm a fool
But I'm not stupid
I know I'm out of tune
Even to ride a bike

It's a lie from "these crazy people"
Thinking I'm a tattoo
But I'm not a fool
I know I'm out of tune
Even to eat cornmeal

(Ha ha ha!)

But it's a lie from "these crazy people"
Thinking I'm a square
But I'm not stupid
I know I'm out of tune
Even to drive a truck!
