The Lawn Must Get Mowed

A Grama Precisa Ser Cortada

The Lawn Must Get Mowed

A guerra vai malThe war goes poorly
Mas a grama precisa ser cortadaBut the lawn must get mowed
O dólar tá caindoThe dollar is tanking
Mas a grama precisa ser cortadaBut the lawn must get mowed
Fico um pouco cansadoI get a bit winded
Empurrando aquele peso antigoPushing round that old load
Mas enquanto tá crescendoBut so long as it's growing
A grama precisa ser cortadaThe lawn must get mowed

Os vizinhos tão gritandoThe neighbors are yelling
O pão tá mofadoThe bread has got mold
Os cheques pararam de virThe checks have stopped coming
O radiador tá frioThe radiator's cold
Acordei tossindo de novoWoke up again coughing
Não consigo me livrar desse resfriadoI just can't kick this cold
Mas vejo que ainda tá crescendoBut I see it's still growing
Então a grama precisa ser cortadaSo the lawn must get mowed

E eu culpo o SolAnd I blame the Sun
E eu culpo a chuvaAnd I blame the rain
Culpo a dor nas costas que aumentouI blame the spike in my back pain
Culpo os motoristasI blame other drivers
Culpo as crianças de hojeI blame kids today
Culpo aquele cachorro que morreu em maio passadoI blame that dog that died last may

A lâmina tá gasta e enferrujadaThe blade's worn and rusted
Mas a grama precisa ser cortadaBut the lawn must get mowed
O tanque de gasolina tá vazioThe gas tank is empty
Mas a grama precisa ser cortadaBut the lawn must get mowed
É, talvez seja câncerYeah, maybe it's cancer
Talvez eu só esteja velhoMaybe I'm just old
Mas se ainda tá crescendoBut if it's still growing
Então a grama precisa ser cortadaThen the lawn must get mowed
