Lyrics
Complexo de Épico

Todo compositor brasileiro
é um complexado.
Por que então esta mania danada,
esta preocupação
de falar tão sério,
de parecer tão sério
de ser tão sério
de sorrir tão sério
de chorar tão sério
de brincar tão sério
de amar tão sério?
Ai, meu Deus do céu,
vai ser sério assim no inferno!
Por que então esta metáfora-coringa
chamada "válida",
que não lhe sai da boca,
como se algum pesadelo
estivesse ameaçando
os nossos compassos
com cadeiras de roda, roda, roda, roda?
E por que então esta vontade
de parecer herói
ou professor universitário
(aquela tal classe
que, ou passa a aprender com os alunos
- quer dizer, com a rua -
ou não vai sobreviver)?
Porque a cobra
já começou
a comer a si mesma pela cauda,
sendo ao mesmo tempo
a fome e a comida.
