There is the body
Outspread in the floor *2
Instead of a face, a picture
Of a goal
Instead of a pray
Someone's curse
And silence
Sounding like Amen...
The closest bar
Quickly became packed
Vagabonds amongst
Workers
A man climbed
A bar table
And made a speech
As a councilman...
A coster showed up
To sell!
Rings, Laces
Cheap perfumes
A Bahian woman
To cook
Pastel *3
And some
Barbecue in sticks *4
At four a.m.
The holy spirit *5
Was received by the carnival dancer *6
And everyone decided
To stop, and then...
There is the body
Outspread in the floor
Instead of a face, a picture
Of a goal
Instead of a pray
Someone's curse
And silence
Sounding like Amen...
Without any rush
Everyone went away
Thinking about a woman
Or a football club
I saw the body lying there
And closed
My window
Facing the crime...
A coster showed up
To sell!
Rings, Laces
Cheap perfumes
A Bahian woman
To cook
Pastel
And some
Barbecue in sticks
At four a.m.
The holy spirit
Was received by the carnival dancer
And everyone decided
To stop, and then...
There is the body
Outspread in the floor...
