Princesa [English translation]

I am the sheep I am the cow

that the animals you want to play

are the female open shirt

small tits to suck

Under the lash of these trees

in the shadows where I was born

that the horizon before the sky

I was looking for my mother

"Fernandino and that 'as a daughter

brings me coffee in bed 'and tapioca

and to remind him that and 'born male

sara 'instinct will be' life '

and I in front of a large mirror

I flush his eyes with his fingers to imagine

between the legs a tiny pussy

asleep in the bus

I leave the country childhood

Wish I run at auction

I'm lucky enough to correct

in the kitchen of the pension

dreams mingle with hormones

to dawn will be 'magic

breasts will be miraculous

'cause and Fernanda' own daughter

as a daughter wants to make love

Fernandino but resists and vomiting

and writhes in pain

and then the scalpel for breasts and hips

in a vertigo of anesthesia

till 'my body resembles

on the promenade in Bahia

tender smile of Greenleaf

fingers from her hair extension

when machines link the headlights

on the stage of my life

where traffic jams between desires

my buttocks a male s'appende

In my flesh between my lips

a man slips the other surrenders

Fernandino that I and 'dead in the womb

Fernanda and 'a doll silk

are the embers of a single star

that ring of light called Princesa

a lawyer from Milan

nowPrincesa gives the heart

and a walk relapsed

in the shadow of a balcony

(the campaign)

(heaven)

(the path)

(the school)

(the church)

(the shame)

(the skirt)

(the polish)

(the mirror)

(the lipstick)

(the Fear)

(the street)

(the modeling)

(the vertigo)

(the spell)

(the magic)

(the cars)

(the police)

(the fatigue)

(the dignity ')

(the boyfriend)

(the minion)

(the rich gentleman)

(the dirty)

(the bad luck)

(the sober)

(the barrel)

(the caresses)

(the failure)

(it sucks)

(the beauty)

(to live)
