Cobaias de Deus [English translation]

If you want to know how I feel

Go to a lab or to a labyrinth

Be ran over by this train of death

Go see God's guinea pigs

Walking on the street begging for forgiveness

Go to some random church

Because there they break up in sermons

I feel like a guinea pig, a giant rat

On the hands of a Goddess

Of a God in skirts

Not giving a fuck

I'll go see the ET

Or come as a blues singer

In another incarnation

We, God's guinea pigs

We are God's guinea pigs

We are God's guinea pigs

Brother, take me from this cage, I'm not a monkey

Take me from this evil hospital

Father and mother, I'm afraid

Because they'll leave me to my luck1

You'll help me, bring me the bottle

I feel weak, looking frail

Bring me a rope, brother

Brother, wake up!

We guinea pigs live alone

That's why God feels pitiful and cages us

And makes us sing in a cage

And puts us in a clinic, and makes us fly

We, God's guinea pigs

We are God's guinea pigs

We are God's guinea pigs

We, God's guinea pigs

We are God's guinea pigs

We are God's guinea pigs
