Menina Estranha Lyrics in English Restart

“Menina Estranha” is a playful pop-rock tale about falling head-over-heels for someone who seems completely out of reach. The singer meets a very different girl: she is older, already in college, cultured and critical, while he is still learning to drive and unsure if he will even graduate. She teases his clothes, his hair and his laid-back slang, acting like he has no chance. Yet her cool façade melts the instant they kiss, hinting that her feelings might be stronger than she admits.

Behind the upbeat guitars shines a message of youthful optimism. The lyrics celebrate being unapologetically yourself, trusting that real chemistry will outshine social status or appearance. Although the girl keeps “esnobando” (snubbing) him, the singer is convinced it is only “uma questão de tempo” – a matter of time – before she drops her guard and starts dating him. Listeners are left smiling at the confident underdog who believes that persistence, sincerity and a little bit of rock-and-roll charm can win any strange girl’s heart.
