Full lyrics
Vou botar no jornal, opa
Um anuncio assim, oba
Quem tiver sem amor, oba
Mande carta pra mim
Os quindim, os quindim dá
A normalista quer me namorar
E com a normalista não vou me casar
Mesmo o pai dela não vai gostar
Porque a normalista precisa estudar
A telefonista quer me namorar
Mas com telefonista não vou me casar
Quando eu sair e me demorar
Pelo telefone ela vai me buscar
A professora quer me namorar
Mas com a professora não vou me casar
Ela grita com os alunos, e quer me gritar
E na hora da merenda quer me castigar
Translation
I'm going to put in the newspaper, opa
An ad like this, oba
Whoever is without love, oba
Send a letter to me
The sweets, the sweets give
The teacher wants to date me
And I'm not going to marry the teacher
Even her father won't like it
Because the teacher needs to study
The telephone operator wants to date me
But I'm not going to marry the telephone operator
When I go out and take too long
She'll look for me on the phone
The professor wants to date me
But I'm not going to marry the professor
She yells at the students, and wants to yell at me
And at snack time she wants to punish me
