Mix it up

I was raised by a mad cow that fell in love with my dad
He lost his dairy farm - oh, and now she's stuck in rehab
Mum was a vet in Australia, born of a painter from France
Grandma grew up in Colombia and only understood grandpa once
My first true love was Italian; she used to drink from a cup
She was a whiz with a saucepan and taught me to mix it all up

Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up, got to mix it up
Polka, Gipsy and Mambo
Chili peppers in wine
Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up, got to mix it up
Reggae, Bluegrass, and Tango
Cotton-candy and thyme

My wife was born in a circus, her dad juggled jellyfish
Her brother Joe had a sex change and now he's called Sister Trish
Uncle Muhammed was German, he played guitar in Tibet
Cousin Sarah went bonkers and now she strips on the Net
My second love was Brazilian; she used to drink from a cup
She was a whiz with the shaker and taught me to mix it all up

Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up, got to mix it up
Polka, Gipsy and Mambo
Chili peppers in wine
Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up, got to mix it up
Reggae, Bluegrass, and Tango
Cotton-candy and thyme

Quem não gosta de mistura e acredita em coisa pura
Saiba que um dia água e óleo vão se misturar
É só ver a natureza, a diferença é a beleza
Peixes de um milhão de cores nadando no mesmo mar
E quem não quiser olhar vai sofrer até cansar
Idéia nova em cuca dura bate, bate até entrar
Se não quiser desistir, vai bater até cair
Porque rapadura é doce, mas é dura de quebrar

Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up, got to mix it up
Polka, Gipsy and Mambo
Chili peppers in wine
Mix it up, mix it up, mix it up, got to mix it up
Reggae, Bluegrass, and Tango
Cotton-candy and thyme
