Plaquinha De Aviso Lyrics in English by Gustavo Mioto, Wesley Safadão
Plaquinha de aviso literally translates to "little warning sign" or "warning plaque." It's an interesting phrase because it combines the diminutive form "-inha" (making "placa" into "plaquinha"), which adds a touch of endearment or irony, with the practical concept of a warning.
In the song, the singer wishes the person came with a "plaquinha de aviso" to warn him about their deceptive nature and the heartbreak they might cause. It's a creative and memorable way to express regret and a desire for foresight in a relationship.
Ever been drawn to someone you know is bad news? That's the whole vibe of Gustavo Mioto and Wesley Safadão's "Plaquinha de Aviso"! The singer wishes this person came with a warning sign: "Você tinha que vir com uma plaquinha de aviso" [You should come with a little warning sign]. They're telling everyone to "Mantenha distância, cuidado com o sorriso" [Keep your distance, beware of the smile] because if their mouth touches yours, you're in trouble!
The singer knows this person is a player, saying "Na teoria era pra eu ser o titular, mas no fim de semana tem mais gente pra jogar" [In theory I was supposed to be the starter, but on the weekend there are more people to play]. Even though they almost believe the lies, especially when they say "me ama" [they love me], the singer admits, "Você mente muito bem" [You lie very well]. But here's the kicker: despite all this, they're still totally into them! "Você não presta, mas muito me interessa" [You're no good, but you interest me a lot] is the blunt, catchy truth of the song. It's a fun, honest look at being attracted to someone who's clearly trouble, but you just can't help yourself.
