The Marines Have Landed On The Shores Of Santo Dom

E os caranguejos estão doidos, correm de um lado pro outro, a areia tá queimandoAnd the crabs are crazy, they scuttle back and forth, the sand is burning
E os peixes voam e se dispersam da vista, mudando de rumoAnd the fish take flight and scatter from the sight, their courses turning
Enquanto as gaivotas descansam no frio ninho de canhão, o mar tá agitado.As the seagulls rest on the cold cannon nest, the sea is churning.

O sol sem sorriso brilha sobre os soldados cantoresThe unsmiling sun is shining down upon the singing soldiers
Na poeira das nuvens eles assobiam pras garotas, estão ficando mais ousadosIn the cloud dust whirl they whistle at the girls, they're getting bolder
As velhas suspiram, lembram de memórias que se foram, dão de ombros.The old women sigh, think of memories gone by, they shrug their shoulders.

Prontos pros truques, suas baionetas estão fixas, agora estão avançandoReady for the tricks, their bayonets are fixed, now they are rolling
E os tanques fazem trilhas passando pelas barracas tremendo onde o medo tá se desenrolandoAnd the tanks make tracks past the trembling shacks where fear's unfolding
Todas as jovens esposas com medo, viram as costas pra parada segurando os bebêsAll the young wives afraid, turn their backs to the parade with babes they're holding

Um tiro estala o som, o exército caiu no chão, o atirador tá chamandoA bullet cracks the sound, the army hit the ground, the sniper's callin'
Então eles abrem fogo, mil contra um, não faz sentido esperarSo they open their guns, a thousand to one, no sense in stalling

Na praça vermelha, as multidões vêm pra olhar, o calor tá pesadoIn the red plaza square, the crowds come to stare, the heat is leaning
E os olhos dos mortos viram todas as cabeças pras viúvas gritandoAnd the eyes of the dead are turning every head to the widows screaming
Mas os soldados fazem uma oferta, dando doces pras crianças, os dentes brilhandoBut the soldiers make a bid, giving candy to the kids, their teeth are gleaming

De um lado pro outro da costa, os generais brindam, a roda tá girandoUp and down the coast, the generals drink a toast, the wheel is spinning
E os covardes e as prostitutas espiam pelas portas pra ver quem tá ganhandoAnd the cowards and the whores are peeking through the doors to see who's winning
Mas os traidores vão fingir que tá chegando ao fim, quando na verdade tá começandoBut the traitors will pretend that it's getting near the end, when it's beginning
