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
