Lyrics
Bossa Nova e Bossa Velha
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.
Afinal se isso é bossa nova
o que é que é bossa velha
a diferença está só no jeito de bater
João Gilberto disse que o samba endireitou
E que ninguém aqui jamais desafinou
Melodia se elevou no tom do Tom a cantar
Poesia deu Vinícius pra rimar
Moças descobriram professores pra lição
Marcando a bossa nova no batendo violão
Mas a Bossa Velha protestou, "Antigamente", reclamou, a dissonância, o som nasal, o atonal
Enquanto o diapasão na discussão não faz a prova
Eu canto a Bossa Velha e a Bossa Nova
Todo ano
Atualmente Bossa Nova te agrada
Mas a Bossa Velha protestou, "Antigamente", reclamou, a dissonância, o som nasal, o atonal
Enquanto o diapasão na discussão não faz a prova
Eu canto a Bossa Velha e a Bossa Nova, Bossa Nova
