Full lyrics
Oh! yes, nós have um problema
Nós num have mesmo é solução
Pondo pinga no motor
Vai faltar pro eleitor
Anestesiar o coração
Aos assaltos nem gritei
aos apertos nem gemi
aos pacotes engoli legal
Mas se boicotar o mé
eu vou retribuir ao Cals
convocando os sóbrios
pra agitarem aqui!
Oh! yes, nós have um problema
Nós num have mesmo é solução
Pondo pinga no motor
Vai faltar pro eleitor
Anestesiar o coração
Nunca precisei votar
Nem comer, nem reclamar
Nem saber prá onde a vaca ia
E sem mé prá calibrar
Eu sou quero ver quem vai empurrar
Esse carrossel de mordomia
Oh! yes, nós have um problema
Nós num have mesmo é solução
Pondo pinga no motor
Vai faltar pro eleitor
Anestesiar o coração
É o cúmulo do azar
O doutor querer usar
Nossa cana nessa experiência
E prá gente conformar
Eu só quero ver se vai faltar
O uísque da mãe de vossa excelência
Translation
Oh! yes, we have a problem
We really don't have a solution
Putting cachaça in the engine
It will be missing for the voter
To anesthetize the heart
At the assaults I didn't even scream
at the hardships I didn't even groan
the packages I swallowed fine
But if they boycott the booze
I will retaliate against Cals
convoking the sober ones
to stir things up here!
Oh! yes, we have a problem
We really don't have a solution
Putting cachaça in the engine
It will be missing for the voter
To anesthetize the heart
I never needed to vote
Nor eat, nor complain
Nor know where the cow was going
And without booze to calibrate
I just want to see who will push
This carousel of privileges
Oh! yes, we have a problem
We really don't have a solution
Putting cachaça in the engine
It will be missing for the voter
To anesthetize the heart
It's the height of bad luck
The doctor wanting to use
Our sugarcane spirit in this experiment
And for us to conform
I just want to see if it will be missing
The whiskey of Your Excellency's mother
