Pretexto

Preciso comprar uma escova de dente
Uma caixa de grampo, um caderno e um pente
Um pacote de fubá
Parece que eu estava sendo guiado
Por uma estrela diferente
Eis que surge, de repente, em minha frente o seu bazar
Ah, se eu pudesse, todo dia te levava para o mar
Também ia pra Bahia, Pernambuco, Ceará
Se eu tivesse algum dinheiro
Te levava pro estrangeiro
Num cruzeiro em alto-mar
Como não tenho recurso nem curso completo
Meu passeio predileto é visitar o seu bazar
Tem batalha de pipa no céu
Vou procurar uma lata vazia
Pra enrolar meu carretel
E passar no seu bazar
Encomendar dois anel
Pra mó de a gente se ajuntar
Nosso caso transformar
Num livreto de cordel
