Текст и перевод песни Ana Cañas - Tijolo

Tijolo

Tijolo tu já lê
Já entende
Até semente pende
Até sem dente morde
Até no amor a gente se agride

Parece arte, revolução
Mas é tudo conchavo do Zé da imprensa
Com a empresa do João
Briga de peixe grande
Quadrilha de piaba
Se rico soubesse groovar
O pobre nem batucava

Uns vão simulando tristeza
Outros fazendo piada
Confundindo a pesca do povo
Poluindo as águas

Com muita lábia
Com muitos ismos
Falta pão
Falta livro
Falta corpo
Falta espírito

Mas tijolo tu já lê
Já entende
Até semente pende
Até sem dente morde
Até no amor a gente se agride

Brick

Brick, you can read now
You understand now
Even a seed can hang
Even without teeth, you bite
Even in love, we hurt each other

It seems like art, a revolution
But it's all a conspiracy by Joe the press
With John's company
A fight between big fish
A gang of minnows
If the rich knew how to groove
The poor wouldn't even play the drums

Some simulate sadness
Others make jokes
Confusing the people's fishing
Polluting the waters

With a lot of smooth talk
With a lot of "isms"
There's a lack of bread
A lack of books
A lack of body
A lack of spirit

But brick, you can read now
You understand now
Even a seed can hang
Even without teeth, you bite
Even in love, we hurt each other
