Nega maluca / Billy Jean / Eleanor Rigby Songtext
von Caetano Veloso

Tava jogando sinuca
Uma nega maluca
Me apareceu
Vinha com um filho no colo
Dizendo pro povo
Que o filho era meu

She was more like a beauty queen
From a movie scene

I said don′t mind
But what do you mean
I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

She said I am the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round

She told me her name was Billie Jean
As she caused a scene

Then every head turned
With eyes that dreamed of being the one
Who will dance on the floor in the round


People always told me:
Be careful what you do
And don't go around breaking young girl′s hearts

And mother always told me
Be careful of who you love
Be careful of what you do
Cause the lie becomes the truth

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl
Who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son

She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son

For forty days and for forty nights
The law was on her side
But who can stand
When she's in demand her schemes and plans

On the floor in the round

So take my strong advice
Just remember to always think twice
Do think twice


She told
My baby that′s a threat
And she looked at me

And showed a photo
My baby cries
His eyes would like mine

Dance it on the floor in the round

(Yes) People always told me:
Be careful of what you do
Don′t go around breaking young girl's hearts

She came and stood right by me
Then the smell of sweet perfume
Then happened much too soon
As she called me to her room

Billie Jean is not my lover
She′s just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son

Billie Jean is not my lover
She's just a girl who claims that I am the one
But the kid is not my son
She says I am the one
But the kid is not my son

Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
