Você Não Presta Lyrics in English Mallu Magalhães

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Você Não Presta by Mallu Magalhães from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Come
I have no mystery, no
Verse 1
I keep my scars
I keep my guidelines
No
I have no secret, no
Verse 1
But I have my inner empire
My lonely world
I invite everyone
To my party
I just don't invite you
Because you're no good
I invite everyone
To my party
I just don't invite you
Because you're no good
Verse 2
Come
I have no mystery, no
Verse 2
I keep my scars
I keep my guidelines
No
I have no secret, no
Verse 2
But I have my inner empire
My lonely world
I invite everyone
To my party
I just don't invite you
Because you're no good
I invite everyone
To my party
I just don't invite you
Because you're no good
Who knows too much
Who never cried
Who never lost everything
Never saw the carnival
Who thinks too much
Who never failed
Who never went crazy
Didn't run from the carnival
Who knows too much
Who never cried
Who never lost everything
Never saw the carnival
Who thinks too much
Who never failed
Who never went crazy
Didn't run from the carnival
You act crazy
But I'm catching your venom
Don't come into my soup
Don't come onto my turf
You act crazy
But I'm catching your venom
Don't come into my soup
Don't come onto my turf
I invite everyone
To my party
I just don't invite you
Because you're no good
I invite everyone
To my party
I just don't invite you
Because you're no good
Who knows too much
Who never cried
Who never lost everything
Never saw the carnival
Who thinks too much
Who never failed
Who never went crazy
Didn't run from the carnival
Who knows too much
Who never cried
Who never lost everything
Never saw the carnival
Who thinks too much
Who never failed
Who never went crazy
Didn't run from the carnival

SONG MEANING

“Você Não Presta” is Mallu Magalhães’s playful yet punchy anthem of self-worth. Singing in Portuguese, the Brazilian artist lays out her rules loud and clear: she owns her scars, follows her own compass, and happily opens the doors of her inner “empire” to everyone… except one toxic guest. The repeatedly chanted line “Eu convido todo mundo para a minha festa, só não convido você porque você não presta” (“I invite everyone to my party, I just don’t invite you because you’re no good”) turns the song into a cheeky, carnival-flavored dis-invitation. In other words, Mallu is throwing the bash of self-confidence and firmly crossing the name of anyone who brings bad vibes off the list.

Beneath the upbeat rhythm and witty lyrics sits a deeper message: knowing your limits is as important as celebrating freedom. By contrasting carnival imagery with warnings against overthinking, never crying, or never failing, Mallu reminds us that real joy comes from embracing imperfection and dancing through life’s ups and downs. So press play, feel the samba-tinged beat, and remember: your party is big enough for the whole world—just don’t forget to keep the haters outside the gate.
