Lyrics of Sofro de Juventude - Tom Zé

Sofro de Juventude (original)

Aaaaaaah
Eu sofro de juventude
Essa coisa maldita
Que quando tá quase pronta
Desmorona e se frita
Negar a boca do pai
Para eu mesmo descobrir
Desesperar-me de medo
Perante cada segredo
O meu pai, o diretor
E o doutor juiz
(Juiz, juiz, juiz)
Me jogaram no fosso
De onde eu ouço
(Ouço ouço ouço)
Em doçuras e torturas
Em pleno gozo
(Gozo)
O urubu que no seu pouso
Me prepara, me separa do caroço
(Osso osso osso)
E me veste
Com a peste
Para a festa do colosso, do colosso
(Do colosso, do colosso
Do colosso, do colosso, ô, ô)
Aaaaaaah

(Do colosso, do colosso
Do colosso, do colosso, ô, ô)

(translation)

aaaaaaah
I suffer from youth
this damn thing
That when it's almost ready
It crumbles and is fried
Deny the father's mouth
For me to discover
despair of fear
Faced with every secret
My father, the director
And the judge doctor
(Judge, judge, judge)
They threw me in the pit
Where I hear it from
(I hear hear hear)
In sweets and tortures
In full enjoyment
(Enjoyment)
The vulture that on its landing
Prepares me, separates me from the core
(bone bone bone)
And dress me
with the plague
For the party of the colossus, of the colosso
(From colossus, from colossus
From colossus, from colossus, oh, oh)
