Full lyrics
Eu bem que sabia que esse cabra era ruim
Flho de Filomena não devia ser assim
Filomena dá um jeito em Fedegoso
Tá fanhoso parecendo uma taboca
Passou quatro mês no Rio e vei simbora
E agora tá falando carioca
Gerimum ele diz que é abrobra
Macaxeira ele diz que é aipim
Arranjou mais um tal de bambolê
Pra quê? Pra fazer vergonha a mim
Na maleta ele butou um clichê
Pra dizer que veio de avião
Mais eu soube que ele veio no Poconé
Pois é, lá embaixo, no porão
Menino, uma roupa que ele diz que é gasimira
Tá pensando que aqui só tem maluco
Ele diz que comprou no magazin
Pois sim, como vai seu vuco-vuco?
Translation
I knew that guy was bad
Filomena's son shouldn't be like that
Filomena, do something about Fedegoso
He's nasal, sounding like a reed pipe
He spent four months in Rio and came back
And now he's speaking like a Carioca
Pumpkin he calls squash
Cassava he calls aipim
He got himself some kind of hula hoop
For what? To make me ashamed
In his suitcase, he put a cliché
To say he came by plane
But I found out he came on the Poconé
That's right, down below, in the hold
Boy, a piece of clothing he says is cashmere
He thinks everyone here is crazy
He says he bought it at the department store
Oh really, how's your hustle and bustle?
