Eu vi a cutia com coco no dente,
Com coco no dente com coco no
dente
Eu vi a cutia com coco no dente
Comendo farinha, olhando pra gente.
Eu vi a cutia com coco no dente
Com coco no dente com coco no
dente.
I saw a cutia with coconut in its teeth
With coconut in its teeth with coconut
in its teeth
I saw a cutia with coconut in its teeth
Eating flour, looking at us
I saw a cutia with coconut in its teeth
With coconut in its teeth with coconut
in its teeth
A small chipmunk-like rodent found in the forests and "capoeiras" of Brazil. Here, "capoeira" refers to a grassy field clearned from the forest, not the movement form. This song remarks upon a cutia unashamedly showing coconut dangling from its teeth.
