Os Originais Do Samba - Tenha Fe, Pois Amanha Um Lindo Dia Vai Nascer (George T Edit)

Altar Born

BARATO TOTAL
(Composição: Gilberto Gil)
------------------------------------
Lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá
Lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá
Quando a gente tá contente
Tanto faz o quente, tanto faz o frio, tanto faz
Que eu me esqueça do meu compromisso
Com isso ou aquilo que aconteceu dez minutos atrás
Dez minutos atrás de uma idéia já deu
Pra uma teia de aranha crescer e prender
Sua vida na cadeia do pensamento
Que de um momento pro outro começa a doer
Lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá
Lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá, lá
Quando a gente tá contente
Gente é gente (gato é gato!)
Barata pode ser um barato total
Tudo que você disser deve fazer bem
Nada que você comer deve fazer mal
Quando a gente tá contente
Nem pensar que está contente
Nem pensar que está contente a gente quer
Nem pensar a gente quer, a gente quer
A gente quer, a gente quer é viver


Gal Costa E Nacao Zumbi - Barato Total

Tom Ze - To

Tim Maia, THE Brazilian Funk Soul Godfather was the real thing. His 1970 debut album introduced his audacious talent, as well as North American soul and funk musical influences, forever changing Brazilian popular music. His legendary appetites sought out carnal AND spiritual fulfillment in equal measure.  He bought 100 hits of LSD and handed them out to the staff of his record label. At the height of his mid-70s success he joined the Cult of Racional Energy; watching for spaceships while wearing only white clothes and playing only white instruments! Yet the two albums he recorded for the Cult are among his best. His songs search for love, and they dig into the existential. His own lyrics say it best: “I am so groovy now and I don’t care!”
