Original text with translation
Ney Matogrosso
Eu fui fazer um samba em homenagem
À nata da malandragem, que conheço de outros carnavais
Eu fui à Lapa e perdi a viagem
Que aquela tal malandragem não existe mais
Agora já não é normal, o que dá de malandro
Regular profissional, malandro com o aparato de malandro oficial
Malandro candidato a malandro federal
Malandro com retrato na coluna social
Malandro com contrato, com gravata e capital, que nunca se dá mal
Mas o malandro para valer, não espalha
Aposentou a navalha, tem mulher e filho e tralha e tal
Dizem as más línguas que ele até trabalha
Mora lá longe chacoalha, no trem da central
I went to do a samba in tribute
To the cream of malandragem, which I know from other carnivals
I went to Lapa and I missed the trip
That such trickery doesn't exist anymore
Now it's not normal anymore, which makes rascal
Regular professional, trickster with the official trickster apparatus
Trickster candidate for federal trickster
Trickster with portrait in the social column
Trickster with a contract, with a tie and capital, who never goes wrong
But the real trickster doesn't spread
Retired the razor, has a wife and child and trash and such
They say the bad tongues that he even works
Lives far away from the center, on the train
