Lyrics and translation Rita Lee - Já Te Falei

Já Te Falei

Já te falei
Ouvi dizer por aí
Já gritei, telefonei, cantei por toda cidade
Pelo beco, pelo meio da Avenida Central
No jardim
Já divulguei
Anunciei por aí
Por e-mail, por correio veio toda a verdade
Já mandei no megafone
Pra toda gente escutar
Notícia que se espalha (Ah)
Paira em qualquer lugar
Li no outdoor, pus na canção
Deu no cinema
Que a vida vale a pena
Na matinê, no botequim
Na madrugada
Vida que vale a pena
Já escutei
E repeti por aí
Coloquei cartazes nos murais
De toda cidade
Já berrei no microfone
A todo volume no ar
Palavra que se espalha (Ah, ah)
Pluma no vendaval
Vi no gibi, foi por aí, li num poema
Que a vida vale a pena
Li no jornal, vi na TV, foi pela antena
Que a vida vale a pena
No futebol, no carnaval, na batucada
Vida que vale a pena
Vida que vale a pena

I Told You So

I told you
I heard it through the grapevine
I've already screamed, called, sang all over town
Through the alleyway, down Main Street, everywhere
In the garden
I've already spread the word
I've announced it to the world
By email, by mail comes the whole truth
I've already sent it by loudspeaker
For all the world to hear
News that spreads (Ah)
Loiters everywhere
I read it on the billboard, put it in the song
It was in the cinema
That life is worth living
At the matinee, at the bar
In the dead of night
Life is worth living
I've already listened to it
And I've repeated it around town
I've put up posters on all the city walls
In the whole city
I've screamed into the microphone
At the top of my lungs
Word of mouth (Ah, ah)
Feather in the wind
I saw it in the comics, it was there, I read it in a poem
That life is worth living
I read it in the newspaper, I saw it on TV, it was on the antenna
That life is worth living
In soccer, in Carnival, in the samba
Life is worth living
Life is worth living
