Por Você

Por Você
Eu dançaria tango no teto
Eu limparia
Os trilhos do metrô
Eu iria a pé
Do Rio à Salvador...

Eu aceitaria
A vida como ela é
Viajaria a prazo pro inferno
Eu tomaria banho gelado
No inverno...

Por Você!
Eu deixaria de beber
Por Você!
Eu ficaria rico num mês
Eu dormiria de meia
Prá virar burguês...

Eu mudaria
Até o meu nome
Eu viveria
Em greve de fome
Desejaria todo o dia
A mesma mulher...

Por Você! Por Você!
Por Você! Por Você!

Por Você!
Conseguiria até ficar alegre
Pintaria todo o céu
De vermelho
Eu teria mais herdeiros
Que um coelho..

Eu aceitaria
A vida como ela é
Viajaria à prazo pro inferno
Eu tomaria banho gelado
No inverno...

Eu mudaria
Até o meu nome
Eu viveria
Em greve de fome
Desejaria todo o dia
A mesma mulher...

Por Você! Por Você!

English

For you

For You
I would dance tango on the roof
I would clean
rails of the subway
I would walk
from Rio to Salvador

I would accept
life the way it is
I would travel to hell on installment plan
I would take cold bath
in the winter

For You!
I would stop drinking
For You!
I would become rich in a month
I would sleep wearing socks
to look like a bourgeois

I would change
even my name
I would live
on hunger strike
I would desire through all my day
one same woman

For You! For You!
For You! For You!

For You!
I could even feel happy
I would paint the whole sky
in red colour
I would have much more heirs
than a rabbit would

I would accept
life the way it is
I would travel to hell on installment plan
I would take cold bath
in the winter

I would change
even my name
I would live
on hunger strike
I would wish through all my day
one same woman

For You! For You!
