Pecado Original
Caetano Veloso
Original Sin
Every day, every night
Every hour, every dawn
Moment and morning
Everyone, every second of the minute
Live the eternity of the apple
Time of the serpent, our sister
Dream of having a healthy life
When we turn
Our face to the sky
And say eyes in the eyes of immensity:
I'm not a dog!
We don't know the right place
To put desire
Every kiss, every fear
Every body in motion
Is full of hell and heaven
Every saint, every corner
Every cry, every cloak
Is full of hell and heaven
What to do with what GOD gave us?
What happened to us?
When we turn
Our face to the sky
And say eyes in the eyes of immensity:
I'm not a dog!
We don't know the right place
To put desire
Every man, every werewolf
Knows the immensity of hunger
That they have to live
Every man knows that this hunger
Is really big
Even bigger than the fear of dying
But we never really know
What a woman wants
