Mulheres atarefadas
Tratam do bacalhau,
Do peru, das rabanadas.
- Não esqueças o colorau,
O azeite e o bolo-rei!
– Está bem, eu sei!
– E as garrafas de vinho?
– Já vão a caminho!
– Oh mãe, estou pr'a ver
Que prendas vou ter.
Que prendas terei?
– Não sei, não sei…
Num qualquer lado,
Esquecido, abandonado,
O Deus-Menino
Murmura baixinho:
– Então e Eu,
Toda a gente Me esqueceu?
Senta-se a família
À volta da mesa.
Não há sinal da cruz,
Nem oração ou reza.
Tilintam copos e talheres.
Crianças, homens e mulheres
Em eufórico ambiente.
Lá fora tão frio,
Cá dentro tão quente!
Algures esquecido,
Ouve-se Jesus dorido:
– Então e Eu,
Toda a gente Me esqueceu?
Rasgam-se embrulhos,
Admiram-se as prendas,
Aumentam os barulhos
Com mais oferendas.
Amontoam-se sacos e papeis
Sem regras nem leis.
E Cristo Menino
A fazer beicinho:
– Então e Eu,
Toda a gente Me esqueceu?
O sono está a chegar.
Tantos restos por mesa e chão!
Cada um vai transportar
Bem-estar no coração.
A noite vai terminar
E o Menino, quase a chorar:
– Então e Eu,
Toda a gente Me esqueceu?
Foi a festa do Meu Natal
E, do princípio ao fim,
Quem se lembrou de Mim?
Não tive tecto nem afecto!
Em tudo, tudo, eu medito
E pergunto no fechar da luz:
– Foi este o Natal de Jesus?!!!
If I say I don't need anyone
I can say these things to you
'Cause I can turn on anyone
Just like I've turned on you
I've got a tongue like a razor
A sweet switchblade knife
And I can do you favors
But then you'll do whatever I like
Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen
I might be a little young
But honey I ain't naive
Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen oh yeah
I might be too much
But honey you're a bit obscene
I've seen everything imaginable
Pass before these eyes
I've had everything that's tangible
Honey you'd be surprised
I'm a sexual innuendo
In this burned out paradise
If you turn me on to anything
You better turn me on tonight
Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen
I might be a little young
But honey I ain't naive
Here I am
And you're a Rocket Queen oh yeah
I might be too much
But honey you're a bit obscene
I see you standin'
Standin' on your own
It's such a lonely place for you
For you to be
If you need a shoulder
Or if you need a friend
I'll be here standing
Until the bitter end
No one needs the sorrow
No one needs the pain
I hate to see you
Walking out there
Out in the rain
So don't chastise me
Or think I, I mean you harm
Of those that take you
Leave you strung out
Much too far
Baby-yeah
Don't ever leave me
Say you'll always be there
All I ever wanted
Was for you
To know that I care
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?
The bitch is hungry, she needs to tell
So give her inches and feed her well
More days to come, new places to go
I've got to leave, it's time for a show
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
My body is burning, it starts to shout
Desire is coming, it breaks out loud
Lust is in cages till storm breaks loose
Just have to make it with someone I choose
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (Are you ready, baby?)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (Come on, come on, baby)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Rock you like a hurricane
It's early morning, the sun comes out
Last night was shaking and pretty loud
My cat is purring, it scratches my skin
So what is wrong with another sin?
The night is calling, I have to go
The wolf is hungry, he runs the show
He's licking his lips, he's ready to win
On the hunt tonight for love at first sting
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (Are you ready, baby?)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane (Come on, come on, come on, come on)
Here I am
Rock you like a hurricane
