Motoqueiro chegar
Biker arrive
Antes da chuva cair
Before the rain falls
Motoqueiro entregar
Biker deliver
E fugir no ar
And escape into the air
Disparado
Fired
Disparado
Fired
Avenida Marginal, motoboy na pista jogando o destino
Avenida Marginal, motorcycle courier on the track playing destiny
Calor assassino e veloz em cada curva um amor tecedor
Killer heat and swift at every turn a weaving love
A vida no retrovisor, não fica parado, formiga em ação
Life in the rearview mirror, don't stand still, tingle into action
Minha moto é um avião
My motorcycle is a plane
São Paulo afogado
Drowned São Paulo
Tráfego danado
Damn traffic
Fluxo quebrado
Broken flow
Minha moto é um avião
My motorcycle is a plane
Motoqueiro chegar
Biker arrive
Antes da chuva cair
Before the rain falls
Motoqueiro entregar
Biker deliver
E fugir no ar
And escape into the air
Disparado
Fired
Asfalto molhado, duro, danado
Wet, hard, damn asphalt
Bem olhar de lado, joelho ralado
Well look from the side, scraped knee
Minha moto é um avião
My motorcycle is a plane
Surfando o Minhocão
Surfing the Minhocão
Quebra mole, vai pra o céu
Break soft, go to heaven
Para-choque vai pra o chão
Bumper goes to the ground
Motoqueiro chegar
Biker arrive
Antes da chuva cair
Before the rain falls
Motoqueiro entregar
Biker deliver
E fugir no ar
And escape into the air
Disparado
Fired
Disparado
Fired
Tanta gente na parada
So many people at the parade
Tanta gente acidentada
So many people injured
Motoboy caiu no chão
Motoboy fell to the ground
Caiu na fumaça, caiu e levantou
Fell in the smoke, fell and got up
O joelho que dói, quebrado o farol
The knee that hurts, the broken headlight
Tanta adrenalina, cheiro gasolina
So much adrenaline, I smell gasoline
Sucata voadora, minha moto é um avião
Flying scrap, my bike is a plane
Quebra mole, vai pra o céu
Break soft, go to heaven
Para-choque vai pra o chão
Bumper goes to the ground
Motoqueiro chegar
Biker arrive
Antes da chuva cair
Before the rain falls
Motoqueiro entregar
Biker deliver
E fugir no ar
And escape into the air
Disparado
Fired
Motoqueiro chegar
Biker arrive
Disparado
Fired
Antes da chuva cair
Before the rain falls
Disparado
Fired
Motoqueiro entregar
Biker deliver
Disparado
Fired
E fugir no ar
And escape into the air
Motoqueiro chegar
Biker arrive
