Today I'm going to change my behavior
I'm going to fight, because I want to improve myself
I'm going to treat you with brute force
So that I may rehabilitate myself
Because this life is not child's play
And I ask, with what clothes, with what clothes
Will I go to the samba that you invited me to?
Today I am jumping like a frog
To escape the curse of the black vulture
I'm already freed of my tatters and I'm going to finish getting naked
I turned my coat into oakum, and now, I don't know with what clothes
Your portuguese ran away, it's been gone
And it took your fortune with it
Forgetting the one who loved it so much before
It took a boat to Portugal
To marry a young girl, and now, with what clothes?
These days I'm not so affable
Therefore, money is not easy to earn
Indeed, as a swindler
I don't obtain any money - whether to save or to spend
I was once prosperous, but now, with what clothes?
