Ano Zero
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
José despertou com
A noite e o nada
Apenas uma mulher junto à mesa de jantar
O que fazer, José?
É hora de partir na escuridão
É hora de fugir como os ratos fogem do chão
Como um cigano dentro da escuridão
Como um marinheiro torto sem rumo no mar
O vinho lhe subia à cabeça
E o sonho queimava o coração junto à mesa de jantar
O que fazer, José?
Sentar pra esquecer e esperar
Que ela num sorriso vá servir a mesa de dor
Que ela faça o prato e não se esqueça do pão
Afogar as mágoas com muito arroz e feijão
