Apenas Um Rapaz Latino-americano [English translation]

I'm just

A latin american guy

With no money in the bank

No important relatives

And coming from the country

But I've got a radio song in my head

In which an old composer from Bahia told me:

"All is divine, all is wonderful"

I've been listening to a lot of records

I've been talking to people

I've been walking my walk

Talk, tunes, around the night

And I don't have a single friend

That still believes that

Everything changes

With all the reason

I'm just

A latin american guy

With no money in the bank

No important relatives

And coming from the country

But I know everything's forbidden

Rather, I wanted to say that everything's allowed

Even kissing you in the dark of the movie theater

When no one sees us

Don't ask me to write you

A song as one should

Correct, white, smooth

Very clean, very light

Sounds, words, are razors

And I can't sing as it's suited

Without hurting anyone

But don't worry, my friend

With the horrors I tell you

This is just a song

Life really is different

I mean, life is much worse

I'm just

A latin american guy

With no money in the bank

Please

Don't draw your gun in the saloon

I'm just the singer

But if after singing

You still want to shoot me

Kill me quickly,

In the afternoon, at three

Because at night

I have an appointment

And I can't miss it

Because of you all

I'm just

A latin american guy

With no money in the bank

No important relatives

And coming from the country

But I know nothing is divine

Nothing, nothing is wonderful

Nothing, nothing is secret

Nothing, nothing is mysterious, no

Na na na na na na na na
