Irônico Lyrics in English Clarice Falcão

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Irônico by Clarice Falcão from Portuguese to English.
I wanted to tell you
That all this love for you
It's ironic, just ironic
Every "I love you" I send you
I'm thinking
This is ironic, it's ironic
Just thinking you thought it was serious
Seriously, I wanna laugh
That you think that when I tear my hair out
To the sound of a cello, I'm there
I like you like someone likes
A YouTube video of someone singing badly
I like you like someone likes
A B-list celebrity
I've already found someone I really loved
And I thought loving was great
But what if someone spreads that around town
How will I look?
I like you like someone likes
A Facebook profile that uses a couple photo
I like you like someone likes
Of someone who's already left Big Brother Brazil
I wanted to tell you
That all this love for you
It's ironic, just ironic
Every "I love you" I send you
I'm thinking
This is ironic, it's ironic
Just thinking you thought it was serious
Seriously, I wanna laugh
That you think that when I tear my hair out
To the sound of a cello, I'm there
I wanted to tell you
That all this love for you
It's ironic, just ironic
I wanted to tell you
That all this love for you
It's ironic, just ironic
It's just ironic

SONG MEANING

Ever tried to tell someone that all those dramatic “I love you” texts were just a joke? That is exactly what Clarice Falcão does in “Irônico.” Over a breezy indie melody, she repeatedly declares her love, only to pull the rug out from under the listener: it is all ironic. The fun lies in watching her giggle at how seriously people can take casual words, turning overblown romance into pure comedy.

Her comparisons make the punchline crystal clear. She says she likes the person the same way you might enjoy a cringy YouTube cover, follow a B-list celebrity, or hit “like” on a Facebook couple’s profile. Even ex-contestants from Big Brother Brasil get a nod. These tongue-in-cheek references reveal that her supposed passion is fleeting and superficial, more for entertainment than for the heart. In short, “Irônico” is a witty reminder that not every “I love you” calls for a cello solo - sometimes it is just a clever joke.
