Original lyrics
Desconforto
O desconforto
Anda solto no mundo
E você sempre junto
E você sempre atento
Ao que menos importa
Você enche os bolsos, solta os cachorros
Tem títulos, círculos
Todos são íntimos
Todos são múltiplos, polivalentes
Ou poliglotas contentes
Não há pacote que esgote seu dia feliz
Não pensa, nem vive
O que sua boca farta diz
Você enche o peito, empina o nariz
Faz vista grossa
Enquanto almoça o que não quis
Chama a polícia por causa de um cigarro
Enquanto tira um sarro
Com a filha do melhor amigo
Onde está o perigo?
Onde está o que importa?
Na marca que você gosta
Ou na ferida que você sopra?
Se joga mas não se mostra
Reclama mas não se toca
Que o desconforto anda solto no mundo
E o corte é profundo
Bem lá no fundo de sua alma
Não bate de frente, não trinca com a gente
Esbanja dinheiro, como o Presidente
Na banca se sente, quebrou a corrente
Sujeira na mente, infelizmente.
Nâo desce do salto não sai do Senado
Não vem para a rua, toma enquadro
Sem roupa da moda, na TV fofoca
Violência e crime não te incomondam
O carro é blindado, novo, importado
E pouco lhe importa quem morre do lado
Whisky no gelo, ouro de tolo
Tanto desconforto na vida do povo

Disconfort
The discomfort
Can be found anywhere in the world
And you're always together with it
And you're always paying attention
To what doesn't matter
You get money in your pockets, you get crazy at people
You have titles, circle
They're all your close friends
They're all multiple, they worth for more than one
Or are they only happy polyglots?
There isn't anything that can stop your day from being happy
You don't think, neither do you live
Whatever your full mouth says
You take a breath and put on airs
You pretend you're not seeing it
While you eat what you didn't want
You call the cops because someone stole your cigarette
While you flirt
With your best friend's daughter
Where does danger live?
Where are the things that matters?
In the birthmark you like
Or in the wound that you're blowing?
You throw yourself but you don't show up
You protest but you don't realize
That the discomfort can be found anywhere in the world
And that its is a deep wound
Deep within your soul
Don't try to fight against us, don't embarrass us
Waste money like the Mr. President does
It can be felt, the chain has been broken
You unfortunately have unclean thoughts in your mind
You don't get off of your shoes, neither do you leave the Senate
You don't come to the streets, the police will approach you
Your clothes aren't in the fashion, you can see gossip on the news
You're not bothered by violence and crime
Your car is armored, brand new and imported
And you don't care about the people dying by your side
Cups of Whisky, fool man's gold
People have been feeling discomfort lately
