It’s 7:45 on a Thursday night
and I’m sitting at the diner, tryin’ to get right
chillin with the band, and talkin about life
laughing it up while having a great time
When all of a sudden walks in a little ditty
wearin a pink knitted scarf, my God she so pretty
she comes to notice me and I’m forced to look away
so I cover one eye as the other gets to see
she teases me with her hypnotic, tantalizing body
she knows just how to make a man feel all funny
Beautiful Brazil, with her beautiful eyes
as clear as the ocean or as deep as the skies
oh wasted days, in a simple craze
she’s captured my attention, now I’m trapped in her dimension.
My eyes get big and my palms get sweaty
cause I’ve never seen a girl looking so heavenly
now I could lie and tell you that each day
I see a million girls like her just on my way
but that’s not so true and in this case
we have a foreign beauty with an impeccable face
she chooses to dine not far from me
and I enjoy the view that I get to see
she turns around and she sits down,
she’s got the body of a goddess
it’ll turn your frown around
Beautiful Brazil, with her beautiful eyes
as clear as the ocean or as deep as the skies
oh wasted days, in a simple craze
she’s captured my attention, now I’m trapped in her dimension.
now in most fairy tales there would be a happy ending
but in the end of this illusion, there is no pretending
'cuz I never got her name or got her number
all I got are memories of my social blunder
cause she noticed me n how much I loved to stare
and ironically I lived in her nightmares
so she got this form that formally states
of how I have to keep distance, twenty feet away
its so hard to admire that which you can’t acquire
but that’s what stupid get for playing with fire
(2X) Beautiful Brazil, with her beautiful eyes
as clear as the ocean or as deep as the skies
oh wasted days, in a simple craze
she’s captured my attention, now I’m trapped in her dimension
