Quando Acabar o Maluco Sou Eu [English translation]

Whenever I look at my face in the mirror

Look at that, I'm normal and that's rare

My nurse thinks she's an artist

Climbs onto my bed, believes herself a trapeze artist1

I'm not gonna say I'm perfect, either

Mommy got me hooked on sucking on tits

Ehê, ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one2

Ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

The Russian man who guarded the H-bomb's button

Got himself drunk3 and tried to send everything flying

Worried Seu Zé, has been horrified4

'Cause there's a missing stamp in his voter card5

Ehê, ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

Ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

I'm crazy but I'm happy

Crazier are those who tell me

I'm the owner, owner of my own nose6

At Feira de Santana7 or even in Paris

I don't make fun of the government or the police

Nor the censors

They're all nice folk, my lawyer swears

Just imagine the day when the pope finally realizes

And comes out singing naked through Italy

Ehê, ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

Ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

I'm crazy but I'm happy

Crazier are those who tell me

I'm the owner, owner of my own nose

At Feira de Santana or even in Paris

I don't make fun of the government or the police

Nor the censors

They're all nice folk, my lawyer swears

Just imagine the day when the pope finally realizes

And comes out singing naked through Italy

Ehê, ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

Ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

Ahã! When it's over I'm the crazy one

"Yeah, it's not looking good"
