Pop Fado [English translation]

Fado, which is democrat

Has now changed style

It joined abstract art

In agreement with all that

It left the vagrancy

And is now very intellectualized

It wanted to learn the language

And the message of pop fado

Oh man...

Pop now for Fado

It's pop-ular

Look, man, the pop syrup

Pop tuned with pop

Oh man...

They don't pop-care

The pop-poor men

They are more pop-papist than the fado1

Pop-ularized, pop-outstretched

"Pop-estari", pop-ulist

Pop fado singer, without a king or pop

It got new models

To attract the onlookers

Patches on the elbows

And the hair like Rolling Stones

Existential in the various

Rhymes of noble senses

It has its trills scattered

Like these very naughty

Verses

Oh man...

Pop now for Fado

It's pop-ular

Look, man, the pop syrup

Pop tuned with pop

Oh man...

They don't pop-care

The pop-poor men

They are more pop-papist than the fado

Pop-ularized, pop-outstretched

"Pop-estari", pop-ulist

Pop fado singer, without a king or pop

...

Oh man...

Pop now for Fado

It's pop-ular

Look, man, the pop syrup

Pop tuned with pop

Oh man...

They don't pop-care

The pop-poor men

They are more pop-papist than the fado

Pop-ularized, pop-outstretched

"Pop-estari", pop-ulist

Pop fado singer, without a king or pop
