Mau Acordar [English translation]

There has to be more

There has to be something more

Than just the train from Cacém

Oh, that's always late

It can't be, oh no

A life long waiting in vain

Sitting next to someone reading

Another disaster

I'm going with the people who are going

To make this world a bit better

Those who dream and want much more

Than just this

But there it goes, everyone's muttering

That the world woke up on the wrong side of the bed

But if I can sit somewhere

I won't even get cranky

I won't get cranky

There has to be something, oh yes

That's not getting ready to go

An entire lifetime listening

To people who are coughing

There has to be, oh yes

A tunnel from Rossio Square to

Some station

Without spondylosis

I'm going with the people who are going

To make this world a bit better

Those who dream and want much more

Than just this

But there it goes, everyone's muttering

That the world woke up on the wrong side of the bed

But if I can sit somewhere

I won't even get cranky

I won't get cranky

I'll probably find, you'll see

A nice dream to live out

Until the bad mood

That's in me wanes

I'm going with the people who are going

To make this world a bit better

Those who dream and want much more

Than just this

But there it goes, everyone's muttering

That the world woke up on the wrong side of the bed

But if I can sit somewhere

I won't even get cranky

I won't get cranky

And if there's a God, perhaps

He is here among us

And in stead of punishing us all

He goes to sleep
