Perfeição Lyrics in English Legião Urbana

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Perfeição by Legião Urbana from Portuguese to English.
Let's celebrate human stupidity
The stupidity of all nations
My country and its gang of murderers
Cowards, rapists, and thieves
Let's celebrate the people's stupidity
Our police and television
Let's celebrate our government
And our State, which isn't a nation
Celebrate youth without school
Dead children
Celebrate our disunity
Let's celebrate Eros and Thanatos
Persephone and Hades
Let's celebrate our sadness
Let's celebrate our vanity
Let's celebrate like idiots
Every February and holiday
All the dead on the highways
Those dead for lack of hospitals
Let's celebrate our justice
Greed and defamation
Let's celebrate prejudices
The vote of the illiterate
Celebrate the rotten water
And all the taxes
Fires, lies, and kidnappings
Our rigged house of cards
Slave labor
Our little universe
All hypocrisy and all affectation
All theft and all indifference
Let's celebrate epidemics
It's the champion crowd's party
Let's celebrate hunger
Having nobody to listen to
Having nobody to love
Let's feed what's evil
Let's wound a heart
Let's celebrate our flag
Our past of glorious absurdities
Everything that's free and ugly
Everything that's normal
Let's sing the National Anthem together
The tear is real
Let's celebrate our longing
And celebrate our solitude
Let's celebrate envy
Intolerance and misunderstanding
Let's celebrate violence
And forget our people
Who worked honestly their whole life
And now have no right to anything
Let's celebrate the aberration
Of all our lack of good sense
Our disregard for education
Let's celebrate the horror
Of all this with party, wake, and coffin
Everything's dead and buried now
Since we can also celebrate
The stupidity of whoever sang this song
Come, my heart's in a hurry
When hope is scattered
Only truth sets me free
Enough of evil and illusion
Come, love's door is always open
And spring is coming
Our future starts again
Come, what's coming is perfection
