In The Meantime In Pernambuco
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.
Sometime when you have to take the hardest way
That don't mean that your star is leading you astray
Forget fashion symposium
You'll get panoramic!
All I gotta say, my friend, stay aerodynamic!
All I gotta say, my friend, stay aerodynamic!
Oh, my spirit guides, lurking in the window
Never did I fit the frame invented by the gringo
Oh, my spirit guides, store up on provisions
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Cause in the meantime in Pernambuco
Cachaça
Yeah, Cachaça a-clandestina
Yeah, Cachaça da cigana
Da da da
Russo Frevo!
Da da da
Cachaça da cigana
Once we're there, the locals ask
"Amigo, who sent you?"
Paranoia, violence is always on the menu
But once the hospitality will dissolve the fear
Nothing but good kind of trouble
There is left to stir
Whoa my spirit guide, lurking in the window
Never did I fit the frame invented by the gringo
Oh, my spirit guide, store up on provisions
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Cause in the meantime in Pernambuco
Cachaça
Yeah, Cachaça a-clandestina
Yeah, Cachaça da cigana
Frevo, Frevo, Frevo, Frevo
Frevo, Frevo, Frevo, Frevo
Russo Frevo
Cachaça da cigana!
