Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Quando a gente 'tá contente
When we're happy
Tanto faz o quente
Whatever the hot
Tanto faz o frio
Whatever the cold
Tanto faz
Whatever
Que eu me esqueça do meu compromisso
May I forget my commitment
Com isso e aquilo que aconteceu dez minutos atrás
With this and that which happened ten minutes ago
Dez minutos atrás de uma ideia já dão
Ten minutes of thinking about an idea is enough
Pra uma teia de aranha crescer
For a spider web to grow
E prender
And arrest
Sua vida na cadeia do pensamento
Your life in the chain of thought
Que de um momento pro outro começa a doer
That from one moment to the next it starts to hurt
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Quando a gente 'tá contente
When we're happy
Gente é gente, gato é gato
People are people, cats are cats
Barata pode ser um barato total
Cheap can be a total cheap
Tudo que você disser deve fazer bem
Everything you say must do good
Nada que você comer deve fazer mal
Nothing you eat should hurt you
Quando a gente 'tá contente
When we're happy
Nem pensar que está contente
Don't even think you're happy
Nem pensar que está contente a gente quer
Don't even think that you're happy, we want
Nem pensar a gente quer
We don't even think we want
A gente quer, a gente quer
We want, we want
A gente quer é viver
We want to live
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Lá, lalalalalalalá
There, lalalalalalalá
Quando a gente 'tá contente
When we're happy
Tanto faz o quente
Whatever the hot
Tanto faz o frio
Whatever the cold
Tanto faz
Whatever
Que eu me esqueça do meu compromisso
May I forget my commitment
