The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Trapo de Gente" by Ary Barroso.

Lyrics

Aconteceu justamente o que mais eu temia
Apesar do trabalho que me deu sua educação
Fui buscá-la na triste miséria de um barracão
Para as noites boêmias de Copacabana
Este mundo de sonhos e desilusão
Mas incapaz de sentir este prisma da vida
Procurou disfarçar na bebida
A mais torpe e cruel traição
Saía comigo
Bebia comigo
Depois se entregava a um amigo
Trapo de gente sem alma e sem coração

Lyrics translation

It happened exactly what I feared the most
Despite the work that gave me his education
I went to pick her up in the sad misery of a shed
For the bohemian nights of Copacabana
This world of dreams and disappointment
But unable to feel this prism of life
Tried to disguise in the drink
The most awkward and cruel betrayal
He used to go out with me.
Drink with me
Then he would give himself to a friend
Rag of soulless and heartless people
