Deve Ter Sido Eu Lyrics in English Clarice Falcão

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Deve Ter Sido Eu by Clarice Falcão from Portuguese to English.
I don't love you anymore
But I still hate that girl
I've already thrown your sneakers in the trash
Your coat and your lighter
But I know
Verse 1
That if by some magic
Her dish comes with peanuts
And she's allergic
Verse 1
And the cook just keeps saying
"Where's the logic?"
Verse 1
If she ends up in the hospital
Feeling really sick
It must have been me
I don't love you anymore
But I still hate that girl
I don't know your license plate anymore
I don't remember your scent
But I know
Verse 2
That on a fateful afternoon
If she suddenly trips
On Joana Angélica Street
Verse 2
And everyone around bursts out laughing
"How pathetic"
Verse 2
If she begs the heavens in vain
To sink into the ground
It must have been me
My heart has already stopped skipping for you
I already answer you with the voice
Of someone who's normal
She shows up
My body starts to boil
Like the guy's rabbit
In Fatal Attraction
By the way, that plan isn't bad
I don't love you anymore
But I still hate that girl
I no longer know if your birthday
Was actually in February
But I know
Verse 3
That if on a bucolic day
She gets dressed and goes out
Under a fantastic sun
Verse 3
And then falls upon her
A historic lightning bolt
Verse 3
That splits her body in two
And only dust is left afterward
It must've been God

SONG MEANING

Deve Ter Sido Eu is Clarice Falcão’s gleefully dark confession of a heart that pretends to have healed while still plotting cartoon-style disasters for the new girlfriend. With her trademark mix of sweetness and sarcasm, Clarice lists everyday proofs that she has moved on: the ex’s sneakers are in the trash, she cannot recall his license plate, and even his birthday is a blur. Yet every time the poor new girl almost chokes on peanuts, stumbles on a busy street, or is struck by a rogue lightning bolt, the singer imagines herself as the secret mastermind behind the chaos. The lyrics turn jealousy into a comic book vendetta, complete with hospital visits, public embarrassment, and references to Fatal Attraction.

Beneath the humor lies an honest look at how lingering resentment can outlive love itself. The song captures that irrational urge to blame someone else for the heartbreak, even when logic says the relationship is over. Clarice’s playful storytelling invites the listener to laugh at the absurdity of wishing misfortune on a rival while owning up to the pettiness we all sometimes feel. It is a catchy reminder that letting go of an ex might be easy compared to letting go of our grudges.
