Deus é Brasileiro
Renato Ribeiro
(translation by Pardal)

Buses full, people jammed together
I wonder if anything in life is supposed to last
Hotter than hell, everybody's broke
I doubt that God's Brazilian...

He doesn't take the bus, or get stuck in crowds
But he must have to hear lots of complaining
Doesn't have color or marital status
Could he actually be the one in charge around here?

They tell me he's everywhere
In the lines, on the sidewalks
In the antennas and the air
I'm not going to ask for anything
Or give thanks for anything
If God's here on Earth
He's got a lot to answer for!

Don't take it wrong, it's alright man
Hey you up there!
Among other things, I'd like to know
And maybe you can help me to understand
How these suffering people are
Gonna play carnival
Beating on an empty pan

Woh ohh oh
Oh my God
I just wanna understand
Woh ohh oh
Oh my God
I just wanna understand
Woh ohh oh
Oh my God
I just wanna understand
Woh ohh oh
Oh my God
I just wanna understand...
