Olodum tropicália (2x)
Na década de 70
Olodum surgiu
E o movimento já repercutia
Por todo o Brasil
O mano Caetano, Gil, Bethânia e Gal
Antonio Risério, Tom Zé, Capinam
E nossos ideais
A repressão dos infames
Foi combatida por meu canto profano
Abaixo a dita-cuja
E o fim da tortura num país soberano
Quem viveu, viveu
A tortura dos manos
Que hoje sagrados
Chamamos de reis
Refrão:
É proibido proibir
No Olodum (Bis)
É proibido proibir
Tropicália renasce
Nas matrizes do afro, nos sons do Olodum
Usando a cultura
Pra a evolução unindo um bem comum
Refrão:
É proibido proibir
No Olodum (Bis)
É proibido proibir
