Full lyrics

To fraco, to fraco é assim que ele faz

Quanto mais eu dou comida mais o bicho grita mais


O bicho é guloso e come demais

Quanto mais eu dou comida, mais ele quer

Acabei o paiol que eu tinha guardado

Já dei de comer pra esse guiné

Até o milho de reserva que eu tinha no pisaco

O danado comeu tudo e saiu gritando to fraco

Translation

I'm weak, I'm weak, that's how he does it

The more I give him food, the more the beast screams, more


The beast is greedy and eats too much

The more I give him food, the more he wants

I finished the barn that I had stored

I already fed this guinea fowl

Even the reserve corn that I had in the pisaco

The darn thing ate everything and went out screaming I'm weak
