Falador

You said that you heard
Seems like Miss Candinha
You don’t mind your own business but want to run mine
Mine plays like a soundtrack
I don’t have time to waste on small talk
You talked to Zé who heard it from João
It’s like a Lion Wolf who never got professional

Can’t keep your mouth shut, always spilling the tea
It’s not a snitch that’s gonna break the chain
I’m giving you a break just to see where you’ll end up
You shut your mouth but can’t stop talking
And you’re rambling, driving me crazy
There are plenty who drag their feet, but few who step up
But hey!

Talker’s gonna have a rough time, man
Talker’s gonna have a rough time
Talker’s gonna have a rough time, man
Talker’s gonna have a rough time

So stop
You’ve said enough, get a grip
When you talk, people come running
Some are throwing a party
And you? You’re wearing a snitch sign on your forehead
Using TV and radio to gossip about others
Acting all Zen, but you’re just a jealous jerk
And you wonder: Where are the good people?
Only your little world is good, so

How many folks give me pats on the back?
How many folks fill my ears with crap?
How many come with their fingers asking for peace?
They hug me up front but stab me in the back
But hey!

Talker’s gonna have a rough time, man
Talker’s gonna have a rough time
Talker’s gonna have a rough time, man
Talker’s gonna have a rough time

Last chance
You wanted to be like me
But you can’t handle my pain
You wanted to go where I go
But where I walk, talkers don’t follow

The streets are watching what you do
The streets don’t give a damn for those who take and bring
Talking about me is easy, hard is being me
And I’m outta here, go mind your own

What I learned from you
Is that we gotta learn to live with our differences
I’m different, buddy
When the shit hits the fan, I’m there
When you need cash, I’m there
And I’m the capitalist?
So what, talker, talker

Some call me D2
Others call me Marcelo, sinister, tough, synonym and subversion
Some call me maximum consonant, baggy pants
Some even call me little mosquito, but you know what?
I make Samba and Love until late!
