Papai Noel de Camiseta [English translation]

Santa Claus will come in a T-Shirt

Using a flipflop and jeans shorts

Playing the agogô instead of the bells

Singing his namesake's1 'Palpite Infeliz'...who wrote this song

Then, it will be Christmas Day

The night will be happier

He will extend a towel on the gutters

Of every suburban square of the country

He will bring liquor, rice, beans, chili pepper

Dulce de leche, gummy beans and quindim2

Then, it will be Christmas Day

The night will be happier

And children blocks will come over

From their newspaper beds

And drag-queens

Carnaval's thin men3

With their feet on the ground

Soldiers of passion

A bandoline

Someone will bring along a guitar

A tambourine

And the crowd will dance as the bells ring

Back on the hill, another boy will be born

And in sunrise, kiskadees will come

On Christmas Day

We can be happy

And children blocks will come over

From their newspaper beds

And drag-queens

Carnaval's thin men3

With their feet on the ground

Soldiers of passion

A bandoline

Someone will bring along a guitar

A tambourine

And the crowd will dance as the bells ring

Back on the hill, another boy will be born

And in sunrise, kiskadees will come

On Christmas Day

We can be happy

Back on the hill, another boy will be born

And in sunrise, kiskadees will come

On Christmas Day

We can be happy

Happy, happy...
