Baby
Music: Caetano Veloso
Lyrics: Caetano Veloso
English Translation
You have to know about the pool
The margarine, Caroline, gasoline
You have to know about me
Baby, baby, I know it's like this
Baby, baby, I know it's like this
You have to try that ice cream
At the cafe, hang out with the gang
Watch me closely
Listen to that song by Roberto
Baby, baby, how long has it been
Baby, baby, how long has it been
You have to learn English
You've got to learn what I know
And what I don't know anymore
And what I don't know anymore
I don't know, with me everything goes blue
With you everything goes in peace
We live in the best city
Of South America, of south America
You have to, you have to
I don't know, read on my shirt
Baby, baby, I love you
-:-
Original Lyrics
Você precisa saber da piscina
Da margarina, da Carolina, da gasolina
Você precisa saber de mim
Baby, baby, eu sei que é assim
Baby, baby, eu sei que é assim
Você precisa tomar um sorvete
Na lanchonete, andar com a gente
Me ver de perto
Ouvir aquela canção do Roberto
Baby, baby, há quanto tempo
Baby, baby, há quanto tempo
Você precisa aprender inglês
Precisa aprender o que eu sei
E o que eu não sei mais
E o que eu não sei mais
Não sei comigo vai tudo azul
Contigo vai tudo em paz
Vivemos na melhor cidade
Da América do Sul, da América do Sul
Você precisa, você precisa
Não sei, leia na minha camisa
Baby, baby, I love you

Dioneo's note: My fried, Ana-Flávia told me this song was written in the days when t-shirts with English words were uncommon in Brazil. Caetano Veloso saw one printed with the words "Baby, I love you", and he wrote a song. Ana Flávia added that of course t-shirts nowadays only come with English writings on them. "That song by Roberto," Roberto here refers to Roberto Carlos.
