Bonsai Lyrics in English Supercombo

“Bonsai” turns the simple act of staying in bed into an adventure of cosmic proportions. The singer brews a make-believe tea, chats with birds about the secrets of flight, then drifts through conversations with fish, sea lions, and even imaginary reporters from Madagascar. Surrounded by miniature bonsai trees, his bedroom morphs into a private universe where he can levitate on electrons and set up house in distant Bangladesh without ever leaving his pajamas.

Behind all this playful imagery lies a message about escapism and self-care. Instead of embracing the chaos of the outside world, the narrator stages his own “kidnapping,” retreating into his own mind for peace and creativity. The repeated line “Esse crânio é o meu refúgio” (“This skull is my refuge”) reminds us that our thoughts can be both sanctuary and playground, offering a safe space to recharge before facing reality again.
