Bandido Lyrics in English Zé Felipe , Mc Mari

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Bandido by Zé Felipe from Portuguese to English.
Put on your helmet, here comes a hit, go
MC Mari
I was at home thinking of you
The party sound you heard was just the TV
Believe that I changed, baby, I changed for you
So don't trip, I was just hanging out
You're too emotional saying that I flew
Criminal, I was there
And said I was sleeping
Keep lying, I'll pretend I believe
I have a photo, I have a video, look
I have a photo, I have a video
Criminal, I was there
And said I was sleeping
Keep lying, I'll pretend I believe
I have a photo, I have, I have a video
I have a photo, look, look, I have a video
MC Mari, the bold of audacity
I was at home thinking of you
The party sound you heard was just the TV
Believe that I changed, baby, I changed for you
So don't trip, I was just hanging out
You're too emotional saying that I flew
Criminal, I was there
And said I was sleeping
Keep lying, I'll pretend I believe
I have a photo, I have a video, look
I have a photo, I have a video
Criminal, I was there
And said I was sleeping
Keep lying, I'll pretend I believe
And I have a photo, I have, I have a video
I have a photo, look, look, I have a video
Look, look, look, look
Call, go

SONG MEANING

Ready for a musical soap opera in under three minutes? “Bandido” pairs Brazilian pop star Zé Felipe with the fearless MC Mari for a playful showdown between lovers. Over an irresistible funk beat, Mari insists she was home thinking of you, while her suspicious partner fires back with accusations of late-night partying. The phrase coloca o capacete que lá vem pedrada (put on your helmet because the stones are coming) sets the tone: things are about to get messy. Each side throws jabs, trading excuses and receipts – literally, “I’ve got photos, I’ve got videos!” – turning a simple lover’s spat into a high-energy call-and-response dance floor anthem.

Beneath the catchy chorus, the song explores modern relationship drama: jealousy, social-media evidence, and the thin line between truth and performance. Calling someone bandido (bandit) is both a flirtatious tease and a pointed accusation of mischief. Instead of heartbreak, though, the track channels the tension into a carnival of beats, humor, and bold attitude, reminding listeners that in love – and in funk – even arguments can be irresistibly fun to dance to.
