Lavando Louça Lyrics in English Hotelo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Lavando Louça by Hotelo from Portuguese to English.
This one's for you to listen to while washing the f*cking dishes
That some bum dirtied
And didn't even think of cleaning
In the middle of this chaos
Me with this dumbass face
Washing dishes, washing dishes
I noticed she used 3 glasses in 10 seconds
He used 3 plates in ten minutes
And I've been p*ssed for two hours
Washing dishes
They said messing with water calms you down
Calm my d*ck, only if it's at your place
The drain's clogged, stinks like hell
What a damn mess, bro
I'm never throwing a party again
I'm already tired of all this
I don't care if the Pope or Madonna comes over
I want you guys to come unclog it
I'm never throwing a party again
And I'm already tired of all this
Outside the day's beautiful and everybody went to have fun
And me here, me here
Washing dishes
I assure you
I'm gonna go to your place to mess everything up
If you ask me to help I'll play deaf
Thinking about revenge I get less p*ssed
Washing dishes
My back's screaming and my hand's all wrinkled
I've only washed half and there's no room for anything else
Then I go to the living room
And find like 8 more glasses, bro
I'm never throwing a party again
I'm already tired of all this
I don't care if the Pope or Madonna comes over
I want you guys to come unclog it
I'm never throwing a party again
And I'm already tired of all this
Outside the day's beautiful and everybody went to have fun
And me here, and me here
Washing dishes
Washing dishes
Washing dishes
Washing dishes

SONG MEANING

Ever felt trapped at the sink while everyone else is out having fun? “Lavando Louça” captures that exact moment. Hotelo turns the simple act of washing dishes into a hilarious rant filled with sarcasm, rage, and eye-rolling honesty. While plates pile up and the drain clogs, the narrator counts every extra cup and curses every party guest, swearing never to throw another get-together again. The water is supposed to be calming, but here it only fuels her frustration, making every splash an anthem of domestic injustice.

Beneath the comedy lies a relatable truth: the invisible labor that often falls on one unlucky host. Hotelo spotlights how quickly others create a mess and how slowly they offer to help, revealing the imbalance between carefree fun and thankless chores. By the end, the song is both a cathartic vent and a vow of revenge—next time she will be the one dirtying someone else’s kitchen. It is a playful yet pointed reminder that behind every great party there is someone still lavando louça.
