O Tempo Não Para [English translation]

I fire at the Sun

I am strong, I am perchance

My machine-gun is loaded with grief

I am a man

Tired of running

In the opposite direction

Without a podium on arrival nor a girlfriend's kiss

I am just another man

But if you think

That I am defeated

Know that I am still rolling the dice

Because time, time doesn't stop

Some days yes, others no

I keep on surviving without a scratch

Of the charity of those whom hate me

Your pool if full of rats

Your ideas don't correspond to the facts

Time doesn't stop

I see the future repeat the past

I see a museum of grand novelties

Time doesn't stop

No it doesn't, it does not stop

I don't have a date for commemoration

At times my days pass by in pairs

Searching for a needle in a haystack

In the cold nights it's better to never be born

In hot nights, the choice: kill or die

And so we become Brazilians

They call you thief, queer, pothead

They transform the country into a whorehouse

That way more money is made

Your pool if full of rats

Your ideas don't correspond to the facts

Time doesn't stop

No it doesn't, it does not stop
