here we stand, like an Adam and an Eve,
waterfalls, the Garden of Eden.
two fools in love, so beautiful and strong,
the birds in the trees are smiling upon them.
from the age of the dinosaurs,
cars have run on gasoline
where, where have they gone?
now it's nothing, but flowers.
there was a factory,
now there are mountains and rivers.
you got it, you got it...
we caught a rattlesnake,
now we got something for dinner.
we got it, we got it...
there was a shopping mall,
now it's all covered with flowers.
you've got it, you've got it...
if this is paradise,
I wish I had a lawnmower.
you've got it, you've got it...
years ago, I was an angry young man,
I'd pretend that I was a billboard.
standing tall by the side of the road,
I fell in love with a beautiful highway.
this used to be real estate,
now it's only fields and trees.
where, where is the town?
now it's nothing, but flowers.
the highways and cars
were sacrificed for agriculture.
I thought that we'd start over,
but I guess I was wrong.
once there were parking lots,
now it's a peaceful oasis.
you got it, you got it...
this was a Pizza Hut,
now it's all covered with daisies.
you got it, you got it...
I miss the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
you got it, you got it...
and as things fell apart,
pobody paid much attention.
you got it, you got it...
I dream of cherry pies,
candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies.
you got it, you got it...
we used to microwave,
now we just eat nuts and berries.
you got it, you got it...
don't leave me stranded here,
I can't get used to this lifestyle.
Caetano Emanuel Viana Telles Veloso (Salvador, April 7, 1942) is one of the most influential singer-songwriters in Brazil. Born into a bourgeois family, he developed a passion for music at a young age, embracing bossa nova and rock. In the 1960s, in Rio de Janeiro, he became part of the Tropicália movement, a cultural explosion that blended traditional Brazilian elements with international influences such as pop, psychedelic, and jazz. Caetano Veloso is known for his innovative melodies, poetic lyrics, and distinctive voice. A key figure in the Tropicália movement, he collaborated with artists like Gilberto Gil, Tom Zé, and Gal Costa. In 1968, following military censorship in Brazil, he was exiled to London. After returning home, he continued to produce highly successful music, exploring new genres such as world music and electronic. Among his most famous songs are "Alegria, Alegria", "Sozinho", "Sampa", and "O Leãozinho".
