When you're in love with a beautiful woman / Quando você esta enamorado de uma mulher bonita, é dificil

When you're in love with a beautiful woman, Quando você enamora com uma mulher bonita,
It's hard. É dificil.
When you're in love with a beautiful woman, Quando você enamora com uma mulher bonita,
It's hard. É dificil.
Everybody wants her. Todos querem ela.
Everybody loves her Todos amam ela.
Everybody wants to take your baby home Todos querem levar sua mulher para casa.
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch your friends
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
It never ends
You know that it's crazy
You want to trust her
Then somebody hangs up when you answer the phone
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You go it alone
Maybe it's just an ego problem
Problem is, Iv'e been fooled before
By fair weathered friends and faint hearted lovers
And everytime it happens
It just convinces me more
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch her eyes
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You look for lies
Everybody tempts her
Everybody tells her
She's the most beautiful woman they know
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You go it alone
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch your friends
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You watch her eyes
When you're in love with a beautiful woman
You keep looking for lies

Eu lembro da Mainha / I remember Mama



I remember Mama, Eu lembro de Mainha
and the love that she gave e o amor que ela dava
Kneeling by her bed side Ajoelando ao lado da sua cama,
I can still hear Mama say, Eu ainda posso ouvir minha mainha dizendo:

'The people are depending on you, Shirley, As pessoas estão dependendo de você, Shirley.
Don't you let them down'. Não os desaponte.

I remember Mama in a happy way. Eu lembro da Mainha de maneira feliz.
We went to school with holes in our shoes. Nós iamos a escola com buracos em nossos sapatos.
We didn't have much but the Lord saw us through. Nós não tinhamos muito mas Deus nos guiou.
Mama kept the family together. Mainha manteve a familia junta.
I remember Mama in a happy way. Eu lembro da Mainha de maneira feliz.

She packed our lunch in an old greasy bag. Ela arrumava nossa lanche numa sacola velha e gordurosa.
It might've seemed empty, Pode ter parecido vazia,
but it was more than others had Mas, era mais do que os outros tinham.
It had a lot of love way down deep inside and Tinha muito amor profundamente guardado.
I remember Mama in a happy way. Eu lembro da Mainha de maneira feliz.

Now, Mama is sleeping in the bosom of Jesus Christ. Agora, Mainha está dormindo no seio de Jesus Cristo.
Somehow I know she's smiling, she's smiling on us right now. De alguma forma eu sei que ela está sorrindo para nós em este momento.
One day I'll see her again, how happy I will be Um dia eu virei ela novamente, e como estarei feliz.
And I remember Mama in a happy way. Eu lembro da Mainha de maneira feliz.
My brothers and sisters, they're living far apart. Meus irmãos e irmãs estão morando longe um do outro.
Although my Mama's gone, she's right here in our hearts. Mesmo que minha mãe tenha ido embora, está aqui em nossos coraçoes.
We're all gonna pull together and stay in the holy place. Chegaremos juntos e ficaremos no lugar santo.
Eu lembro da Mainha de maneira feliz.
Eu lembro da Mainha, eu lembro da Mainha de maneira feliz.

Verse 3:

Chorus:
He's working it out, Ele está resolvendo.
He's working it out for you. Ele está resolvendo para você.

I'm so glad to know He cares, Estou tão grato por saber que Ele se preocupa.
and He's working it out for you. E Ele está resolvendo para você.

If it ain't one thing it's another. / Se não é uma coisa é outra.

I got up this morning tried to get off of work. Eu acordei esta manhã tentando fogar o dia do trabalho.
I couldn't even find not one clean shirt. Eu não achava nem uma camiseta limpa.
There was no hot water when I jumped in the shower. Não havia agua quente quando entrei o banho.
I know my boss is gonna dock me an hour. Eu sei que meu chefe vai descontar uma hora.
The older I get the more I discover. Quanto mais velho eu fico, mais eu descubro:
If it ain't one thing it's another. Se não é uma coisa é outra.

I got to the car, I tried to get motivated. Eu cheguei ao carro, e tentei me animar.
Now, I'm stuck in the traffic, all I'm doing is waiting. Agora estou parado no transito, todo que eu faço é esperar.
The fool behind me keeps blowin' his horn. O idiota detrás de mim continua buzinando.
I got my top laid back and it's coming up a storm. Eu abaixei a capota e uma tormenta vem.
The older I get the more I discover. Quanto mais velho eu fico, mais eu descubro:
If it ain't one thing it's another. Se não é uma coisa é outra.

Light bill, phone bill, water and gas . . . Conta de luz, telefone, agua e gas . . .
Pay day comes and it goes so fast! O dia de pagamento e vai embora tão rápido!
There's no way out and I'm telling you brother. Não tem saida e eu vou lhe dizer, meu irmão:
If it ain't one thing it's another. Se não é uma coisa é outra.

I got to the job and I tried to explain. Eu cheguei no meu trabalho e tentei explicar.
The boss said you won't have to do that again. O chefe disse, "Você não vai ter que fazer isso de novo."
I called home just to tell her the news. Eu liguei para casa somente para contar a ela a novidade.

Como distinguir uma vogal em inglês da outra


Cada vogal em inglês tem characterísticas unicas que nos ajudam a saber entre uma e a outra. Por exemplo, o som da "a" padrão (som de um bebé chorando com a boca bem aberta), e um som que dura muito, que é pronunciado elongadamente. Por contrário, o som da "e" (som que fazemos disparando ar pela garganta para tirar poeira da garganta) é um som pronunciado muito rapidamente como um disparo. Então, se alguem que fala inglês fala um vogal demoradamente, pode ser "a" padrão mas não vai ser "e", pois "e" é pronunciado bem mais rapido do que "a".



Igualmente, o som da "e" modificado em inglês é um som que pronunciamos bem mais elongadamente do que o som da "i" padrão (som que fazemos após saborear ou cheirar algo com sabor ou cheiro excepcionalmente ruim). Então, só porque falamos uma vogal alongadamente ou rapidamente, que está ouvindo pode entender se falamos, por exemplo, "a" padrão ou "e" padrão, ou por outro exemplo, "e" modificado ou "i" padrão.



Do mesmo jeito, o som da "u" padrão que Venus William faz quando batendo a bola forte num jogo de ténis é um som bem mais curto e rápidamente pronunciado do que o som da "o" padrão, vocalização que fazemos quando o médico pede nós abrir a boca grande, mostrar as amidalas, e falar "aaaaaa".

Pronunciando a "o" modificada, tendemos em exagerar e prolongadamente. Por exemplo, "bow", "toe", "show".

three little pigs / Os três porquinhos (green jelly)


(Spoken)
Why don't you, sit right back, Por quê você não se senta relaxa
and I, I may tell you, a tale. e eu posso contar a você uma fábula
A tale of three, little pigs, Uma fábula de três pequenos porquinhos
and a BIG, BAD, WOLFFF. e um grande e mal lobo
Well the first little piggy, well he was kinda hick. Bem, o primeiro porquinho, bem ele era um caipira.
He spent most of his days, just a dreamin of the city. Ele passava a maioria de seus dias, apenas sonhando com a cidade.
And then one day, he bought a guitar. E então um dia ,ele comprou uma guitarra.
He moved to Hollywood, to become a star. Ele foi para Hollywood, para se tornar uma estrela.
But, living on the farm, he knew nothing of the city. Mas,vivendo na fazenda, ele não sabia nada da cidade.
Built his house out of straw, what a pity. Construi sua casa de palha, que pena.
And then one day, jammin on some chords, E então uma dia, tocando algumas cordas,
along came the wolf, knocking on his door. veio o lobo, batendo na sua porta.
(Chorus) Refrão
Little Pig, Little Pig, let me in. Porquinho, porquinho, deixe me entrar.
NOT BY THE HAIR OF MY CHINNY, CHIN, CHIN!! Nem pela barba de meu queixo!
Little Pig, Little Pig, let me in. Porquinho, porquinho, deixe me entrar.
NOT BY THE HAIR OF MY CHINNY, CHIN, CHIN!! Nem pela barba do meu queixo!
Well I'm huffin, I'm puffin, I'll blow your house in. Bem eu estou soprando, estou inchando e vou derrubar sua casa com meu vento.
Huffin, puffin, blow your house in. Sopro, incho, derrubo sua casa com meu vento.
Huffin, puffin, blow your house in. Sopro, incho, derrubo sua casa com meu vento
Huffin and a puffin and I'll blow your house in!!! Sopro e incho e vou derrubar sua casa com meu vento.
Well the second little piggy, well he was kinda stoked. Bem, o segundo porquinho, bem ele estava meio drogado.
He spent most of his time just a gone just smokin. Ele passava a maior parte do
Huffin and a puffin down on Venice Beach.
Getting paid money for religious speech.
He built his shelter from what he garbage picked.
Mostly made up of old cans and sticks.
Then one day he was cranking out Bob Marley,
and along came the Wolf on his big bad Harley.
(Chorus)
Well the third little piggy, the grade A student.
His daddy was a rock star, named Pig Nugent.
Earned his Masters Degree, from Harvard College.
Built his house from his architect knowledge.
A tri-level mansion, Hollywood Hills.
Daddy's rock stardom, paid for the bills.
And then one day came the old house smasher
the BIG BAD WOLF THE LITTLE PIGGY SLASHER.
(Chorus)
Well the big bad Wolf,
well he huffed, and he puffed, all that he could.
And low and behold the little piggy's house stood.
IT'S MADE OUT OF CONCRETE! the little piggy shouted.
The wolf just frowned, as he pouted.
So they called nine-eleven, like any piggy would.
The sent out RAMBO, just as fast, as they could.
(Rambo)
YO, WOLF-FACE, I'M YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE, YOUR ASS IS MINE!!!
Well the wolf fell dead as you can plainly see.
So thats to end the story, for you and me.
If you still give a listen, you just may, here a big wolf or little piggy say.
(Chorus)
And the moral of the story is, ' A band with no talent can easily amuse
idiots, with a stupid, puppet show.

Daddy, Don't You Walk So Fast / Papai, não ande tão rápido (Wayne Newton)


Here's a song by Wayne Newton, that I first heard in 1972, and that spoke directly to my own circumstances and experiences, since 1972 was the year in which my parents divorced.

I experienced over and over again, repeatedly, the scene that is described in the song, since the desire not to disappoint one's children rarely seems able to lastingly conquer the need for spouses to separate.

However, I did not resemble the above child in the video at that age. Here are the lyrics, courtesy Google and LyricsMode.Com.


The love between the two of us was dying. O amor entre nós dos estava morendo.
And it got so bad I knew I had to leave. E chegou a ser tão ruim que eu sabia que tinha de ir.
But halfway down that highway, Mas meio caminho por essa estrada
when I turned around I saw quando voltei e vi
My little daughter running after me minha pequenha filha correndo detrás de mim
Crying: Chorando:
Daddy, don't you walk so fast! Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Daddy, don't you walk so fast!
Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run! Papai, anda mais vagar, pois você me está fazendo correr!
Daddy, don't you walk so fast!
Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Now, it broke my heart to tell my little daughter. Agora, me quebrou o coraçao falar para minha filinha
That her daddy had to run to catch a train Que seu pai tinha que correr para sair de tren
She had no way of knowin' I was leavin' home for good Ela não tinha jeito de saber que eu sai de casa para sempre
I turned around and there she was again Eu mirei para atrás e ahí ela estava de novo.
As she said to me E ela falou para mim:
Daddy, don't you walk so fast! Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Daddy, don't you walk so fast!
Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run! Papai, anda mais vagar, pois você me está fazendo correr!
Daddy, don't you walk so fast!
Papai, não ande tão rápido.
If only for the sake of my sweet daughter, Se for apenas por o bem da minha doce filha,
I just had to turn back home right there and then. Eu simplesmente tive que voltar a casa ahí mesmo.
And try to start a new life with the mother of my child. E tentar de começar uma nova vida com a mae da minha criança.
I couldn't bear to hear those words again. Eu não aguentava ouvir essas palavras de novo.

She cried and said: Ela chorou e falou:
Daddy, don't you walk so fast! Papai, não ande tão rápido.
My daughter cried: Minha filha chorou:
Daddy, don't you walk so fast! Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Daddy, don't you walk so fast! Papai, não ande tão rápido.
Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're makin' me run! Papai, anda mais vagar, pois você me está fazendo correr!

Barriers to Learning English in Pará de Minas, MG

Expensive private schools

Em muitas escolas, demora muito aprender inglês, com niveis rígidos de aprendizagem que duram até cinco ou seis anos para avançar (supostamente) para a fluência. Quanto mais anos para aprender, mais custa o processo.

Inadequate and wrong-headed didactic methods

Students lack time to go to classes

Students lack money for transportation to go to classes

Too many students in English classrooms

Inadequacy of access to English-language materials, as well as Spanish and other language materials.

Lack of student access to the Internet at home and at school

Three of the four English schools are part of a chain of schools, and so they do not adapt their teaching methodologies to the local realities.

Terrible, “unsupportable” boring English language text books and CD’s and DVDs.

Para mulheres, chegar a casa tarde é perigoso.

Lack of fluent English speakers

Spanish is easier to learn

Baixa renda e falta de poder aquisitivo do povo relativo ao custo de matrícula das escolas existentes.

Falta de babá para criança na hora da aula.

Familias dos estudantes pressionam estudantes de não seguir.

Familias de estudantes namorados não aceitam o relacionamento e pressionam aos filhos de não estudar juntos na mesma escola.



Happy to Be Stuck With You (Contente de Estar Grudado em Você)

Weve had some fun, and yes weve had our ups and downs
Been down that rocky road, but here we are, still around
We thought about someone else, but neither one took the bait
We thought about breaking up, but now we know its much too late
We are bound by all the rest
Like the same phone number
All the same friends
And the same address

Yes, its true, (yes its true) I am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, its true, (yes its true) Im so happy to be stuck with you
cause I can see, (I can see) that youre happy to be stuck with me

Weve had our doubts, we never took them seriously
And weve had our ins and outs, but thats the way its supposed to be
We thought about giving up, but we could never stay away
Thought about breaking up, but now we know its much too late
And its no great mystery
If we change our minds
Eventually, its back to you and me

Yes, its true, (yes its true) I am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, its true, (yes its true) Im so happy to be stuck with you
cause I can see, (I can see) that youre happy to be stuck with me

We are bound by all the rest
Like the same phone number
All the same friends
And the same address

Yes, its true, (yes its true) I am happy to be stuck with you
Yes, its true, (yes its true) Im so happy to be stuck with you
cause I can see, (I can see) that youre happy to be stuck with me
(yes its true) Im so happy to be stuck with you
Im happy to be stuck with you
Happy to be stuck with you.

Wherever You Will Go /Onde quer que você irá (The Calling)



So lately, been wonderingWho will be there to take my place
When I'm gone you'll need love to light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone could you make it on your own.

CHORUS:
If I could, then I would
I'd go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you, through the darkest of your days
If a great wave shall fall and fall upon us all
Well then I hope there's someone out there
who can bring me back to you


CHORUS
If I could, then I would
I'd go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go

Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love

I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind I'll stay with you for all of time

CHORUS
If I could, then I would
I'd go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low, I'd go wherever you will go

If I could turn back time
I'd go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'd go wherever you will go
I'd go wherever you will go

How Could I Know? / Cómo eu podia saber? (Raul Seixas)

Reformulation  ReformulaçãoRearrange the game you're in  
Let's start from the begin
With confidence you'll win
That's the reason you were born
'cause Jesus Christ, man  Jesus Cristo, homem
Won't be coming back no more
He's set up his proper loss
And you know well that he did
Just what he could have done
When I was growing
And my hair was getting longer
I was feeling so much stronger
I could carry my guitar
And I knew that I could sing
But, hey, how could I know
The wind would blow in the rain?
Hey, how could I see
What would they make out of me?
When I was little
Used to dream I was a king
Now they taught me how to sing
Think I've got most everything
I could ever as 'fore
You've got your pencil
Your guitar, your amplifier  amplificador
You will set this world on fire
Like Nero did to Rome  Roma
But, hey, how could I know
My eyes could see in the dark?
Hey, don't press on me
I'm not to blame, can't you see?
It's been to long now
Since the latest reb has gone
Who knows will be the next
To go down in History Historia

Lucille / Lucia (Kenny Rogers)

In a bar in Toledo,  Num bar em Toledo,
across from the depot,  em frente a armazem 
On a bar stool,  Num tamborete 
she took off her ring.  ela tirou seu anel. 

I thought I'd get closer,  Eu pensei que me aproximaria 
so I walked on over,  Então, eu fui até ela.
I sat down and asked her her name.   Eu sentei e eu perguntei qual era o nome dela. 

When the drinks finally hit her,  Quando as bebidas finalmente chegaram até ela. 
She said:  Ela diz:

“I'm no quitter,  Eu não sou de desistir,
But, I finally quit livin' on dreams!  Mas, eu finalmente deixei de viver sonhando.
I'm hungry for laughter,  Estou faminta de gargalhadas

and here ever after,  e de aqui para frente 
I'm after whatever the other life brings.”  Vou depois de o que seja que a outra vida traiga. 

In the mirror I saw him,  No espelho eu vi ele,
and I closely watched him.  e eu fixadamente olhei ele. 
I thought how he looked out of place.  E pensei como ele pareceu estar fora lugar.

He came to the woman.  Ele veu para a mulher
who sat there beside me.  quem sentava do meu lado.
He had a strange look on his face.  Ele tinha um olhar estranho em seu rostro. 

The big hands were calloused.  As grandes mãos estavam cheias de calos.
He looked like a mountain.  Ele parecia uma montanha.
For a minute, I thought I was dead.  Por um minuto, eu pensei que era morto. 

But, he started shaking!  Mas, ele começou a balançar.
His big heart was breaking!  Seu grande coração estava quebrando!
He turned to the woman and said:  Ele virou para a mulher e diz. 

”You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille!  Você escolhou uma boa hora de deixar-me, Lucille. 
With four hungry children and a crop in the field!  Com quatro famintas crianças e uma colheita no campo 
I've had some bad times!  Eu tenho tido algums maos tempos. 
I've lived through some sad times!  Eu tenho vivido por tempos tristes.
But this time your hurting won't heal!  Mas, esta vez suas machucadas não vão sarar. 
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille."  Você escolhou uma boa hora de deixar-me, Lucille.

After he left us,  Após dele deixar-nós,
I ordered more whiskey.  Eu pedí mais whiskey.
I thought how she'd made him look small.  Eu pensei como ela tinha feito ele aparecer pequenho. 

From the lights of the bar room,   Desde as luzes do salão do bar.

to a rented hotel room,  Até um quarto do hotel
we walked without talking at all.  Nós caminhamos sem nada falar.

She was a beauty,  Ela era uma beleza 
but when she came to me,  mas quando ela chegou em mim
She must have thought I'd lost my mind!  Ele deve ter pensado que eu tivesse perdido a mente. 

I couldn't hold her,  Eu não pude segurar ela.
[Be]‘cause the words that he told her,  Pois as palavras que ele falou para ela 
Kept coming back time after time:  Voltavam elas uma e outra vez.

”You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille!  Você escolhou uma boa hora de deixar-me, Lucille. 
With four hungry children and a crop in the field!  Com quatro famintas crianças e uma colheita no campo 
I've had some bad times!  Eu tenho tido algums maos tempos. 
I've lived through some sad times!  Eu tenho vivido por tempos tristes.
But this time your hurting won't heal!  Mas, esta vez suas machucadas não vão sarar. 
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille."  Você escolhou uma boa hora de deixar-me, Lucille.

”You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille!  Você escolhou uma boa hora de deixar-me, Lucille. 
With four hungry children and a crop in the field!  Com quatro famintas crianças e uma colheita no campo 
I've had some bad times!  Eu tenho tido algums maos tempos. 
I've lived through some sad times!  Eu tenho vivido por tempos tristes.
But this time your hurting won't heal!  Mas, esta vez suas machucadas não vão sarar. 
You picked a fine time to leave me, Lucille."  Você escolhou uma boa hora de deixar-me, Lucille.

Blue Bayou / Pantano Azul (Linda Ronstadt)

I feel so bad I got a worried mind
I'm so lonesome all the time
Since I left my baby behind
On Blue Bayou

Saving nickles saving dimes
Working til the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday
Come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Gonna see my baby again
Gonna be with some of my friends
Maybe I'll feel better again
On Blue Bayou

Saving nickles saving dimes
Working til the sun don't shine
Looking forward to happier times
On Blue Bayou

I'm going back someday
Come what may
To Blue Bayou
Where the folks are fine
And the world is mine
On Blue Bayou
Where those fishing boats
With their sails afloat
If I could only see
That familiar sunrise
Through sleepy eyes
How happy I'd be

Oh that boy of mine
By my side
The silver moon
And the evening tide
Oh some sweet day
Gonna take away
This hurting inside
Well I'll never be blue
My dreams come true
On Blue Bayou

Midnight Train to Georgia /Trem da meia noite para a Georgia (Gladys Night)

L.A. proved too much for the man,
So he's leavin' the life he's come to know,
He said he's goin' back to find
Ooh, what's left of his world,
The world he left behind
Not so long ago.
He's leaving,
On that midnight train to Georgia,
And he's goin' back
To a simpler place and time.
And I'll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia,
I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine.
He kept dreamin'
That someday he'd be a star.
But he sure found out the hard way
That dreams don't always come true.
So he pawned all his hopes
and he even sold his old car
Bought a one way ticket
To the life he once knew,
Oh yes he did,
He said he would
Be leavin
On that midnight train to Georgia,
And he's goin' back
To a simpler place and time.
And I'll be with him
On that midnight train to Georgia,
I'd rather live in his world
Than live without him in mine.
Go, gonna board, gonna board,
Gonna board the midnight train.
Gotta go, gonna board
Gonna board
Gonna board the midnight train
(repeat, fade)

The Way / O caminho (Fastball)

They made up their minds. Eles tomaram a decisão.
And they started packing. E começaram fazendo os bagagens.
They left before the sun came up that day. Partiram antes da madrugada esse dia.
An exit to eternal summer slacking Uma saida dos verãos eternos de descansos.
But where were they going without ever knowing the way? Mas onde eles iam sem nunca saber o caminho?
They drank up the wine. Beberam o vinho.
And they got to talking E começaram falando.
They now had more important things to say. Agora tinham coisas mais importantes para conversar.
And when the car broke down they started walking. E quando o carro deu pao começaram andando.
Where were they going without ever knowing the way? Mas, onde eles iam sem nunca saber o caminho.

Chorus: Choral:

Anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved in gold. Qualquera podia ver que o caminho que eles andam é feito de ouro.
And its always summer, they'll never get cold. É sempre verão e nunca fica frio.
They'll never get hungry. Nunca vão ter fome.
They'll never get old and gray. Nunca vão ficar velhos e cinzentos.
You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere. Da para ver seus sombras indo para algum lugar.
They won't make it home! Não vou voltar a casa
But, they really don't care! Mas, não les importa muito.
They wanted the highway! Querian a estrada.
Theyre happy there today, today! Estão mais contentes ahí hoje em dia, hoje em dia!

The children woke up. As filhos despertaram.
And they couldnt find 'em. E não os encontraram.
They left before the sun came up that day. Sairam antes o sol despertar esse dia.
They just drove off Eles simplesmente foram dirigindo
And left it all behind 'em. deixando tudo detrás deles.
But where were they going without ever knowing the way? Mas, onde eles iam sem nunca saber o caminho.

Anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved in gold Qualquera podia ver que a estrada que eles andam é feita de ouro.
And its always summer, theyll never get cold. É sempre verão, e não passarão frio nunca.
Theyll never get hungry. Nunca vão passar fome.
Theyll never get old and gray. Nunca vão ficar velhos e cinzentos.
You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere. Da para ver suas sombras partindo para algum lugar
They wont make it home. Não voltaram a casa.
But they really don't care. Mas realmente não lhes importa.
They wanted the highway Queriam a estrada.
They're happy there today , today (repeat) Estão mais felizes ahí agora! Agora!

Zombies / Zumbi (Cranberry)

Another head hangs lowly, Outra cabeça frouxa baixa
Child is slowly taken.
And the violence caused such silence,
Who are we mistaken?

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family.
In your head, in your head they are fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, dou, dou, dou, dou, dou...

Another mother's breakin',
Heart is taking over.
When the vi'lence causes silence,
We must be mistaken.

It's the same old theme since nineteen-sixteen.
In your head, in your head they're still fighting,
With their tanks and their bombs,
And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are dying...

In your head, in your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie,
Hey, hey, hey. What's in your head,
In your head,
Zombie, zombie, zombie?
Hey, hey, hey, hey, oh, oh, oh,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey, oh, ya, ya-a...
