Full lyrics

Se tu tens pouca sorte

No que faz e no que quer

É um desinteressado

Não liga nem pra mulher

Trabalhe com a cabeça

Faça tudo nada peça

Não espere que alguém

Diga se te interessa


Te interessa, Te interessa

O sol nasceu pra todos

Na vida precisa pressa


A dona que passa e olha

Para, ri e solta graça

Espera que tu vá

Demonstrar a tua raça

E tu deixa passar

Oportunidade dessas

É por isso que tu ouve

Toda hora te interessa


Tu que joga futebol

Tens uma grande torcida

Lá no campo nada faz

Em quase toda a partida

Não chuta, não cabeceia

Joga mal e não despreza

Os cartolas gritam sempre

Olha a bola te interessa


Tu que é um letra ó

Ganha bem e tem penacho

Quando um pega um troço é sábio

E leva um ano no despacho

A parte prejudicada

Chega faz uma promessa

Dizendo amanha eu volto

Muito cedo te interessa

Translation

If you have bad luck

In what you do and what you want

You are disinterested

You don't even care about women

Work with your head

Do everything, ask for nothing

Don't wait for someone

To say if it interests you


It interests you, it interests you

The sun rises for everyone

In life, you need haste


The lady who passes and looks

Stops, laughs, and makes a joke

She waits for you to go

To demonstrate your worth

And you let it pass

Opportunities like these

That's why you hear

Every time, it interests you


You who plays soccer

You have a big crowd cheering

On the field you do nothing

In almost every game

You don't kick, you don't head

You play badly and don't despise

The bigwigs always shout

Look at the ball, it interests you


You who is a wise guy

You earn well and have swagger

When someone catches something, they're wise

And it takes a year in the office

The harmed party

Arrives and makes a promise

Saying tomorrow I'll be back

Very early, it interests you
