Brazil carnival song (Andres Calamaro)
The muse is a muse one
or is a snake with many heads,
promises seekers,
tempt with the beer,
if you can come back when least expected,
to give her comfort, foul-mouthed poet.

There are women absent, there are knives in their teeth,
Mardi Gras is not from Brazil,
songs are not urgent,
are no outstanding issues,
Mardi Gras is not from Brazil,
(sadness nao tein fim)

We will have to draw their swords in the text,
And write a song even though there is some excuse,
and dedicate it to the first passer by walking,
who thought about, which does not want to think,
selective forgetting, memory loss,
to the pieces of life that we will not miss ... ever.

There are women absent, there are knives in their teeth,
Mardi Gras is not from Brazil,
songs are not urgent,
are no outstanding issues,
Mardi Gras is not from Brazil.
