In the Meantime in Pernambuco Songtext

von Gogol Bordello

Sometime when you have to take the hardest way
That don't mean that your star is leading you astray
Forget fashion symposium
You'll get panoramic!
All I gotta say, my friend, stay aerodynamic!
All I gotta say, my friend, stay aerodynamic!

Oh, my spirit guides, lurking in the window
Never did I fit the frame invented by the gringo
Oh, my spirit guides, store up on provisions
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!

Cause in the meantime in Pernambuco
Cachaça ëü¸òñÿ
Yeah, Cachaça a-clandestina
Yeah, Cachaça da cigana

Da da da...
Russo Frevo!
Da da da...
Cachaça da cigana

Once we're there, the locals ask
"Amigo, who sent you?"
Paranoia, violence is always on the menu
But once the hospitality will dissolve the fear
Nothing but good kind of trouble
There is left to stir

Whoa my spirit guide, lurking in the window
Never did I fit the frame invented by the gringo
Oh, my spirit guide, store up on provisions
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!

Cause in the meantime in Pernambuco
Cachaça ëü¸òñÿ
Yeah, Cachaça a-clandestina
Yeah, Cachaça da cigana

Frevo, Frevo, Frevo, Frevo
Frevo, Frevo, Frevo, Frevo
Russo Frevo

Cachaça da cigana!
