Full lyrics
Essa garota tem mania de riqueza
Tudo o que ela vê, quer comprar
Roupas bonitas, televisão colorida
Minha querida, o meu dinheiro não dá
No fim do mês só me restam alguns centavos
Mais do que isso eu não consigo juntar
Já abri uma poupança prá você
Só centavos é o que eu posso guardar.
Quer centavos novos ? quer centavos novos ?
Quer centavos novos, é o que eu posso te dar.
Quer centavos novos ? quer centavos novos ?
Só centavos novos eu consigo te arranjar.
Vai todo o dia no cabeleireiro
Quer comprar casa na beira do mar
Vai jantar fora em fim de semana
Manda o garçom trazer caviar
Quer ir nas férias para pernambuco
Conhecer recife, depois ceará
E de regresso vir pra salvador
Mas o meu dinheiro que eu tenho, não dá.
Quer centavos novos ? quer centavos novos ?
Só centavos novos, é o que eu posso te dar.
Quer centavos novos ? quer centavos novos ?
Só centavos novos eu consigo te arranjar.
Translation
This girl has an obsession with wealth
Everything she sees, she wants to buy
Beautiful clothes, a color television
My dear, my money isn't enough
At the end of the month, I only have a few cents left
More than that I can't save
I already opened a savings account for you
Only cents is what I can save.
Do you want new cents? Do you want new cents?
Do you want new cents, that's what I can give you.
Do you want new cents? Do you want new cents?
Only new cents I can get for you.
She goes to the hairdresser every day
She wants to buy a house by the sea
She goes out to dinner on weekends
She tells the waiter to bring caviar
She wants to go on vacation to Pernambuco
To see Recife, then Ceará
And on the way back come to Salvador
But the money I have isn't enough.
Do you want new cents? Do you want new cents?
Only new cents, that's what I can give you.
Do you want new cents? Do you want new cents?
Only new cents I can get for you.
