Mas que nada sai da minha frente Eu quero passar Pois o samba está animado O que eu quero é sambar
Esse samba Que é misto de maracatú É samba de preto velho Samba de preto tú Mas que nada Um samba como esse tão legal Você não vai querer que eu chegue no final
"Mas Que Nada" by Sergio Mandes
I'm Brazilian, so I know SOME music not performed in English.
Edit: Because spelling is important (even in Portuguese)

Oui bon, j'étais comme Canto Et je parlais aux mouettes en argot J'étais Walter Hugo, le poète ! Très tôt, j'ai voulu comme les grands Faire le cow-boy avec des balles à blanc Ramasser beaucoup d'oseille et vlan A 10 ans, j'étais dur à cuire Je voulais passer mon permis de conduire A l'instructeur d'une auto-école J'ai dit "signes, il m'faut une bagnole" Si tu me crois, tu vaux pas un centime Je te le jure, oualalaradime

Deixe eu dançar Pro meu corpo ficar odara Minha cara Minha cuca ficar odara Deixe eu cantar Que é pro mundo ficar odara Pra ficar tudo jóia rara Qualquer coisa que se sonhara Canto e danço e dará

Un siglo llevo en soledad Atrapada queriendo escapar Soñando que alguien, me libere Me lanzas un beso Yo te quiero amar Pero hay un precio que tendrás que pagar Para que me entregue
Oh oh oh oh oh mi cuerpo dice quiero Oh oh oh oh oh pero mi alma tiene miedo

As the cries start to penetrate still air, this day we celebrate. The wait now ends. From four corners smoke plumes into reddened sky. In the face of lantern light, my destiny flies. This day so hallowed, from here to forever its will I will follow. Tonight will come to life. Deadened branches stirred by whispers in the wind. Fall children fill the streets at dusk, at last, it all will begin.

Nothing could touch us then no one could change us then, and everyone was dancing. Nothing could hurt us then, no one could see us then, and everyone was dancing. Everyone was dancing.

Every step of the way we walk the line Your days are numbered, so are mine Time is pilin' up, we struggle and we scrape We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape
City's just a jungle, more games to play Trapped in the heart of it, trying to get away I was raised in the country, I been workin' in the town I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style but they've guaranteed to raise a smile. So may I introduce to you the act you've known for all these years - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.]

My god sits in the back of the limousine My god comes in a wrapper of cellophane My god pouts on the cover of the magazine My god is a shallow little bitch trying to make a scene
I have arrived and this time you should believe the hype I listened to everyone now I know that everyone was right I'll be there for you as long as it works for me I play a game, it's called insincerity

Welcome, strangers, to the show I'm the one who should be lying low Saw the knives out, turned my back heard the train a coming, stayed out on the track In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream I lost my shirt, I pawned my ring s I've done all the dumb things.

To the wounded: I have seen the self image they've forced you to reduce to shattered glass. The only remaining value lying in its jagged edges. But the few who warrant waking for, await their recognition. No fear of death, but with fear of life. Your weakness kills everyone, SO LIVE.

It's a matter of instinct, it's a matter of conditioning, It's a matter of fact. You can call me Pavlov's dog Ring a bell and I'll salivate- how'd you like that? Dr. Landy tell me you're not just a pedagogue, cause right now I'm Lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did Well I'm lying in bed just like Brian Wilson did.

Stop to think before you Hold on to your realities Nothing compares to someone true Close, so close beside you Carry your instincts Love that shines consciously So clear to see For who holds inside

Poor puppy, you look so sad, I guess you think that no one ever felt so bad before. Everybody has the blues, everybody has the blues. Everybody knows the way that you feel today.
Everybody gets to sit and cry, everybody gets to wonder why. Everybody gets to watch the sky turn grey.
Maybe you lost your job, maybe you lost your girl, maybe you feel like you're losing your mind, maybe it's the end of the world.

Don't give up the fight to stay alive and even if you have to find the reason of another's pain if they lose you. If not for yourself for those around who care like I do.
One day you'll see the clear blue beyond the Grey sky.

You keep on sayin' that you want to know me but you never show me your true self. How can you ever expect someone else to know you when all you're going to do is just pretend that you're someone else? You keep on sayin' that you want to show me that you're really different, but your just the same.

I know a movie star I’ve got her plastered to my wall. Just like we’re dear old friends Like she already knows me. She’s as perfect as she seems, Lifts me right out the mezzanine. I finally fell in love, I’d been waiting forever.
Four, three, two, one When at the barrel of a gun Keep my head way down. Stay out I’ll stay in. Half dead, half numb She’s enough to make me warm It’s all so safe and sound.

Some kind of verb Some kind of moving thing Something unseen Some hand is motioning to rise, to rise, to rise Too fat, fat you must cut lean. You got to take the elevator to the mezzanine, Chump, change, and it's on Super bon bon, super bon bon, super bon bon.
