Santa Lyrics in English Mimicat
Desalinhado means "misaligned" or "out of alignment". It's a great word to describe anything from a crooked picture frame to a car's wheels.
In the song, Mimicat wonders if she was born with "mercúrio desalinhado" (misaligned Mercury). This is a direct reference to the astrological concept of "Mercury in retrograde", a time often blamed for bad luck and chaos. It's a modern and clever way to express that it feels like the universe itself is working against her.
Santa is Mimicat’s playful confession of morning-after chaos and lifelong restlessness. The singer tumbles out of bed feeling dizzy, anxious and out of sync with the universe, then fires off a frantic prayer that seems to bounce off the sky. Stumbling through heat flashes and chills, she hears people whisper about the girl who sings alone in the street, a mix of pity and curiosity that only deepens her insecurity.
Behind all this drama lies a stubborn spark of rebellion. Over and over she begs her mother for advice, yet she is the one who dreams of flipping the table, staring down the devil and taking control of her fate. Her mantra “Mãe, eu sou boa, não sou santa” (“Mom, I’m good, not a saint”) becomes a lively declaration that perfection is overrated. The song celebrates every wobble, doubt and daring impulse as part of a vibrant journey toward self-acceptance and freedom.
