Happy Birthday, Dinho Ouro Preto!
In honor of the 59th birthday of Dinho Ouro Preto, lead singer of the band Capital Inicial, a translation of their song “Natasha” from their 2000 album “Acústico MTV” (“MTV Acoustic”).
“Natasha”
17 years old and she ran away from home
At 7 in the morning on the wrong day
Carrying in her purse some lies to tell
She left her parents and her boyfriend behind
A step without thinking
Another day, another place
Bottles and cigarettes on the ground
With no tomorrow, she stole cars for fun
She was Ana Paula, now she’s Natasha
Wearing 6 inch heels and a rubber skirt
A step without thinking
Another day, another place
The world is ending
And she just wants to dance
Car tires sing
Tchuru-ru, tchuru, tchuru-ru, tchuru-ru
She’s got seven lives, but nobody knows anything
Fake ID with the age changed
The wind blows while she bites
Disappears before anyone wakes up
Green hair, neck tattoo
A new face, a body made for sin
Life is beautiful, paradise is a pill
Any shot, illegal or prohibited
