Mais Do Mesmo Lyrics in English Legião Urbana
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mais Do Mesmo by Legião Urbana from Portuguese to English.
Ei menino branco o que é que você faz aqui
Hey white boy, what are you doing here
Subindo o morro pra tentar se divertir
Going up the hill to try to have fun
Mas já disse que não tem
But I already said there isn't any
E você ainda quer mais
And you still want more
Por que você não me deixa em paz?
Why don't you leave me in peace?
Por que você não me deixa em paz?
Why don't you leave me in peace?
Desses vinte anos nenhum foi feito pra mim
Of these twenty years, none was made for me
E agora você quer que eu fique assim igual a você
And now you want me to be like this, like you
É mesmo, como vou crescer se nada cresce por aqui?
Really, how will I grow if nothing grows around here?
Quem vai tomar conta dos doentes?
Who will take care of the sick?
E quando tem chacina de adolescentes
And when there's a massacre of teenagers
Como é que você se sente?
How do you feel?
Como é que você se sente?
How do you feel?
Em vez de luz tem tiroteio no fim do túnel
Instead of light, there's a shootout at the end of the tunnel
Oh oh sempre mais do mesmo
Oh oh, always more of the same
Não era isso que você queria ouvir?
Wasn't this what you wanted to hear?
Bondade sua me explicar com tanta determinação
How kind of you to explain to me with such determination
Exatamente o que eu sinto, como penso e como sou
Exactly what I feel, how I think, and how I am
Eu realmente não sabia que eu pensava assim
I really didn't know I thought like that
E agora você quer um retrato do país
And now you want a portrait of the country
Mas queimaram o filme, queimaram o filme
But they burned the film, they burned the film
E enquanto isso, na enfermaria
And meanwhile, in the infirmary
Todos os doentes estão cantando sucessos populares
All the sick people are singing popular hits
Sucessos populares, sucessos populares, sucessos populares
Popular hits, popular hits, popular hits
(E todos os índios, índios, índios, foram mortos, mortos, mortos, mortos)
(And all the Indians, Indians, Indians, were killed, killed, killed, killed)
