Camarão

Como dizia um velho ditado chinês
Os grandes peixes comem os pequenos peixes
Pequenos peixes comem camarões
E aos camarões só resta a lama
Não se preocupe meu amigo
Muito você viverá
Só sugam o sangue do camarão
Até ele cambalear
Pois a luxuria é vivida
A saúde é mantida
O conforto é concebido
Através de sua lida
Agora samba!
E agora camarão
Pra onde é que cê vai nadar
Se o trabalho é o que te esmaga
E o nadar faz afogar
Pois quando cê veio ao mundo
O rio já tava ali
Todinho privatizado
Nem deu para competir
E nem é essa a intenção
