Full lyrics
Tic tac do relógio que do norte vem
é cadência bem marcada que o baião tem
tic tac do relógio que do norte vem
é cadência bem marcada que o baião tem
Ai o meu relógio é nortista
bate como bate o baião
e esse tal tic tic tic, morena
pisa no meu coração
e esse tal tic tic tic, morena
pisa no meu coração
Pois quando eu vou me deitar
apago a luz, vou dormir
não posso mais sossegar
com esse tal tic tic tic
começo a me remexer no meio da escuridão
e sem querer, sem querer
levanto dessa cama e vou dançar baião
e esse tal tic tic tic, morena
pisa no meu coração
e esse tal tic tic tic, morena
pisa no meu coração
Translation
The tick-tock of the clock that comes from the north
is a well-marked cadence that the baião has
The tick-tock of the clock that comes from the north
is a well-marked cadence that the baião has
Oh, my clock is from the north
it beats like the baião beats
and this tick-tick-tick, my dear
steps on my heart
and this tick-tick-tick, my dear
steps on my heart
Because when I go to bed
I turn off the light, I go to sleep
I can't rest anymore
with this tick-tick-tick
I start to stir in the darkness
and unintentionally, unintentionally
I get out of bed and go dance baião
and this tick-tick-tick, my dear
steps on my heart
and this tick-tick-tick, my dear
steps on my heart
