[Verse 1]
I always thought this would happen
Since I was a child I'd believe the grown-ups
That I'd have to see it for myself
Ugly, kinda unsightly, suspicious
Had an x-shaped leg, paunchy
Doubting that I'd be able to grow up
Anyways, however, time kept going
And I was postponing, changing the big days where I'd meet
Who knows, maybe tomorrow? Next year?
Cebolinha with his infallible plans would teach me how to be
Strong, brave, good at sports, one of the handsome guys at school
Even if I never really wanted it that much
It's a good thing that I'm brazilian, so stubborn, hopeful
Pride of being a five-time champion
Since if I was american
I'd grab a pistol and my head and I'd lose myself
I'd shoot fifteen in a school
Blow my brains out and appear on TV
And in the end I grew up, insult by insult
I saw myself as an adult, cult
Ready, for what again? I don't know
I look and I can't find, I think if I wasn't stupid
Of believeing in the story of thepriest that I heard
No car waiting for me, no table reserved
Just a stupid joke about the Portuguese
No wine or champagne or glass
Just a pint of liquor and a shitty salary every month
[Chorus]
Everything I've dreamed of, everything I ever won
It's so good to be here, how much is there still to go?
Everything I've dreamed of, everything I ever won
It's so good to be here, oh...
[Verse 2]
But, nonsense, so much biterness
I know life hard, now I just need to get used to it
You just need to have the courage, the daintiness and the flexibility
Learning day to day, bar to bar
Why complain if you have cognac
If on TVThere's a star player and my Timão only goes in to win?
Why pretend to be Chico Buarque?
Why want to be a martyr, if giving in is part of the moment?
And in the end to have a girlfriend, pretty, polite
Serious, everything mommy could ever ask for
There's kisses and there's sex
And a heavy conscience with every new desire that appears
From other women, from freedom, from a new love
So I can close my eyes and smile
Thinking that, from then on, whatever your age is
The better is still oncoming
[Chorus]
Everything I've dreamed of, everything I ever won
It's so good to be here, how much is there still to go?
Everything I've dreamed of, everything I ever won
It's so good to be here, I know
