Pais e Filhos [English translation]

Statues and safes

And painted walls

Nobody knows

What happened

She jumped out the window

From the fifth floor.

To understand this is not easy

You can sleep safe now

hummm

It's just the wind

Out there

I need some human warmth

I'll run away from home

Can I sleep here

With you?

I'm afraid

Just had a nightmare

I'm coming back home

Only past 3 in the morning

My son will be given

The name of a saint

Uummhum!

I want the most

Beautiful name for him

We've got to love one another

As though tomorrow did not exist

Because if you stop to think carefully

You'll see it actually doesn't exist

Tell me why is the sky,blue?

Explain, why is the world in such a fury?

It's my children

Who look out for me.

I live with my mother

But my father comes visit me often

I live in the streets

I have no one

I live anywhere

I've lived in so many different places

That now I cant' even remember

I live with my parents

Huhuh, oh!

We've got to love one another

As though tomorrow did not exist

Because if you stop to think carefully

You'll see it actually doesn't exist

I am a water drop

I am a grain of sand

You say your parents

Can't understand you

But you don't understand them, as well

You blame your parents for anything

That's an absurd

They are children just like you

What will you be

When you grow up?
