Lyrics
O mundo me condena
E ninguém tem pena
Falando sempre mal do meu nome
Deixando de saber
Se eu vou morrer de sede
Ou se eu vou morrer de fome
Mas a filosofia hoje me auxilia
A viver indiferente assim
Nessa prontidão sem fim
Eu vou fingindo que sou rico
Pra ninguém zombar de mim
Não me incomodo que você me diga
Que a sociedade é minha inimiga
Pois, vivendo nesse mundo
Vivo escravo do meu samba
Muito embora vagabundo
Quanto a você da aristocracia
Que tem dinheiro, mas não compra alegria
Há de viver eternamente
Sendo escravo dessa gente
Que cultiva hipocrisia
I told you I was trouble
And you know that I’m no good
Lyrics translation
The world condemns me
And no one is sorry
Always speaking ill of my name
Not knowing
If I'm going to die of thirst
Or if I'm going to starve
But philosophy today helps me
To live indifferent like this
In this endless readiness
I'll pretend I'm rich
For no one to make fun of me
I don't mind you telling me
That society is my enemy
Yeah, living in this world
Live slave of my samba
Pretty though Tramp
As for you from the aristocracy
Who has money, but does not buy joy
You'll live forever
Being a slave to these people
Who cultivates hypocrisy
I told you I was trouble
And you know that I'm no good
