1. 4 SKIES(Arto Lindsay/Amedeo Pace)Firma Ltd. (BMI)/Amedeo Pace (BMI)
Arto Lindsay: Guitar Amedeo Pace: Guitar Brian Eno: SonicsProduced by Arto Lindsay
One sky is orangeSome skies are greyOr the deep dark blue that gave blue its nameA sky like a room at the top of a houseA most violent sky hanging low over waterI need a way to say you’re scorchingA seething, crumpled, teeming sky
One sky on stageHeathen and roundHeat removes what was left of soundBraid two snakes, cover clouds with your armBlack hair turning red, sunset on a sweaterWhy do we feel like it might break?A seething, crumpled, teeming sky

I do love your lack of all expressionFind it not at all distressingLife was tailor made for our refreshmentWhile life is rarely lacking dustCovered with details and fussYou are one of those creatures who simply areSimply beyond whySimple as okay
Let me provide whatever bravery’s required
Whatever necessary fractionBut nothing more than it takes to provoke a reactionDaydream your way around the roomThrough intersections and agressionsYou are one of those creatures who simply areSimply beyond whySimple as okay
Pay enough attention to be fairNo need to get up from your chairShower me with evidence of pleasant dispositionDaydream your way around the roomWalk right past frowns and gloomYou are one of those creatures that simply are

I’m a student of just one masterI’m only afraid of one monsterI stand illuminated
All my visions crowd down to one bead of sweatMy whole life bears down on one hourI stand illuminated
I know the world holds many wordsPearls hang down in necklacesIslands come round in archipelagoesI get all my light from one light bulbI stand illuminated
I’m devoted to a telling detailI’m awash in overall impressionsI stand illuminated
I only roll down the one staircaseI only have foresight the first timeI stand illuminated

When did I emptyMy empty mind?Did you see me let go of myself?Before I lose sightOf that picture of youBetter place it face down on the bed
Notice how natureReplaces what was mineBut still leaves me to drown in my styleReinvent remind meHow we stuck to our fastFasten me down
Rub words awayRoll back in the shadeViolent and hectic and wisePeace in disguiseDust covers the prizeViolent and hectic and wise
Bite marks and scratchesElbows and kneesIn our dollhouse the furniture’s capsizedRushing and stalling in our disbeliefFolded back into our own surprise

Ela faz o personagemMão enfiada no bolsoChega ameaçandoE semi-malemolenteE nós conhecemos bemTodos os seus lindos desmaiosSeus colapsos de paixãoQuedas de sofrimento
Ela é mestre na arte de ser atrizDona do jogoDa verdade do fingimento
Ela é soberanaDos tecidos transparentesReina sobre os descendentesDaqueles povos mais decentesEla pensa e dispensaSolta e improvisadaSéria e compenetradaChora entre gargalhadas
Ela é mestreDo meu andamentoSenhora do tempoDona das cadências
Única e lindaDevassa e gloriosaO avesso da modéstiaEntrega-se aos ventos(Se entrega aos comentários)

Vinicius Cantuária: Guitar, Percussion Ryuichi Sakamoto: Piano, Synthesizers Naná Vasconcelos: Cymbals Produced by Arto Lindsay
His own private math is as big as lifeIt’s all aftermath, burns in stripes so bright
He sees right through walls, right through the writing on themTwo years old and playing those games
He’s not tame, he’s not slim yetFeed him, give him to eat – child prodigy
His head is barely hard, he’s so hard headedHair isn’t hardly parted he’s a man of parts
You can’t be jealous, he just makes you feel biggerTwo years old and he’ll never be the same
He’s not trained to put you through your pacesFeed him, give him to eat – child prodigy
Child prodigy, all wizardry and charm is yoursA children’s child, child of a child, prodigy
Take it all in till you cryThere’s always more blueGrazing, grazingMore laziness to make you cry

Melvin Gibbs: Programming, BassVinicius Cantuária: Acoustic GuitarNaná Vasconcelos: Drums Produced by Cycle 7 with Patrick Dillett, Arto Lindsay, Andrés Levin
Maple opaqueSevere and chicIs will power possible?Falling duskLights unclearBalance is less than useless
Chill at the neckIce, cheeks and earsMy sense of touch is worthlessExpensive chestsRampant, repleteFear would make the most sense
Eyes blink ridiculously deepSecrets of unfolding leisureDespise any motive shy of fateSleek and all indecisive
Looming allureHigh storied livesIn a roar of splintered musicDangling, crisp
Like border guardsSighs are rarely louder
8. COMPLICITY(Arto Lindsay/Vinicius Cantuária)Firma Ltd. (BMI)/Sony Music Publishing Brazil (BMI)

Complicity Unconscious witBorders without borders under eyebrowsSilent as scentHair curls like smokeLet’s talk about another kind of violence
Terrifying face of pleasure in the paintingRed palms and soles stand out against blue skinStanding on one leg with her long back displayedWhile the other leg wraps itself around him
Day in a faceVoices erasedAt the center of a savage kind of halo
Hopelessly phrasedI’m not a birdYou are not lying in a hammock
How biological can this clock really beIf it doesn’t get you going until midnightIt’s an unconscious cult we don’t even know we’re in itLet’s make out like two bilinguals in the hay
9. INVOKE(Arto Lindsay/Melvin Gibbs)Firma Ltd. (BMI)/Archetext Music (BMI)
Melvin Gibbs: Bass Skoota Warner: DrumsMark Batson: Keys Sandy Park: Violin Stephen Barber: Violin Arrangement
Nanny Assis: PercussionProduced by Arto Lindsay, Melvin Gibbs, Andrés Levin
I call your image to mindCall and recallTactile and olfactory signsI list your numerableAnd innumerable partsAll your limbsTogether in a single motion
Feast after feast goes badMany many winds hold their headsThere’s no rest to be had
I invoke, I invoke, I invoke
I summon your side effectsYour side kicks, a side stickSummon and applyResonance and slapbackI summon illusionsEspecially the flimsy underpinningOf temporary things
I invoke, I invoke, I invoke
On my knees in a new memoryWrapped up, set upBeing visualizedPanting and life-sizeI call out to youUp to my waistIn a howling windAnd all the trash it brings
I invoke, I invoke, I invoke
10. REENTRY(Arto Lindsay/Vinicius Cantuária)Firma Ltd. (BMI)/Sony Music Publishing Brazil (BMI)
Melvin Gibbs: Programming, BassVinicius Cantuária: GuitarProduced by Cycle 7 with Patrick Dillett, Arto Lindsay, Andrés Levin
I’m watching youDon’t feel a thingWhat might that be?
I see your smile
In the center ringBright lights and lack
What’s all that dust? Can you see me back?
Reentry on my way outReentry why take me backA real ending is it too much to ask?Why can’t we leave it at that?
No special airNo autumn lightWhere might they be?
Back to the roomWhere time still movesSubject to me
Reentry on my way outReentry why take me backA real ending is it too much to ask?Why can’t we just leave it at that?
A movie deathClutch stumble rollYeah stretch it out
Dreams into steelHigh ceilings, words gone with the rest
It was some partI played that part
11. COMBUSTÍVEL(Arto Lindsay/Melvin Gibbs/Lucas Santana)Firma Ltd. (BMI)/Archetext Music (BMI)/BMG publishing
Melvin Gibbs: Programming, KeyboardsMarivaldo Paim: Surdos, DjembeArto Lindsay: GuitarWebster Santos, Lucas Santana, Arto Lindsay: ChorusProduced by Arto Lindsay, Melvin Gibbs, Kassin, Berna for Monoaural
Cortejo afro chegandoÉ a rua em combustãoMe acabaMe cortejaMe arrasta pra conflagraçãoCombustívelTá escasso
CombustívelGenerosaMe cortejaMe arrastaCortejo afro chegando
Tudo que lambeÉ madeiraAçúcarPapel crepomÉ língua afiadaMuito pôr-do-sol
Tudo que ardeÉ chicoteDecoteMetais ao solE a gasolinaNão se bebe não
Tudo que queimaÉ pimentaÁgua-vivaÉ ateréIsqueiro no ventoSol sem protetor
Tudo fogosoÉ amanteCavaloAsfalto no péLume à vontadePreto e azul

In Ondina do you rule like beforeDo you brave the thick and fists on your ownDo you know you throw me off
Are these questions I should askAre those the kinds of things I really want to know?Do you steal all you can takeGive it back before you go homeDo you still steal ‘til it’s gone?
Do the daughters of Oxum turn you onCan I ask you where you spend what you’ve earnedDo you frequent the same streetsWhat do you give up your hearing forDo you have to get too close before you know?

2. PRIVACY(Arto Lindsay/Peter Scherer)Virgin Music Inc. (ASCAP)
Standing by the window looking out doorsCould be any port in any stormTwo shiny things getting very snugYou’ll never get that giraffe through that door
Sitting in a penthouse with no floorFire would like to say goodnightI like the way you hold your horsesCan’t buy a tree house on a storm
Your privacy all around meYour privacy Is my poverty
Working on a tan in my fireplaceDressed to impress your delicacyCan’t stand the way you swallow your tailYour roots are showing and it’s starting to snow
Your morse code mouth my piracyAll these strings all this confettiTry to pretend you invented secrecyFish swallow fish tail first
3. PONY(Arto Lindsay)Firma Ltd. (BMI)
I’m so afraid of myselfMy skin is red to the touchI’m so ashamed of myselfThe title pony might buckPrepare the ice cubesPrepare the glueStand up and cry feverHelp me change my luck
I’ve lost the will to read or writeTurn away from the lightBend me over your kneeWhile I giggle and squealSo prepare the mopAnd prepare the teaI’m so ashamed of myselfI’m so ashamed of you and me
4. EROTIC CITY(Prince)Controversy Music (ASCAP)
All of my purple lifeI’ve been looking for a flameThat would wanna be my wifeThat was my intention, dream
If we cannot make babiesMaybe we can make some timeThoughts of pretty you and meErotic city come aliveWe can fuck until the dawnMaking love til cherry’s goneErotic city can’t you seeThoughts of pretty you and me
Every time I comb my hairThoughts of you get in my eyesYou’re a sinner, I don’t careI just want your creamy thighs
If we cannot make babiesMaybe we can make some timeThoughts of pretty you and meErotic city come aliveWe can fuck until the dawnMaking love til cherry’s goneErotic city can’t you seeThoughts of pretty you and me

Se eu quiser fumar eu fumo, se eu quiser beber eubeboEu pago tudo que eu consumo com o suor do meu empregoConfusão eu não arrumo, mas também não peço arregoEu um dia me aprumo, pois tenho fé no meu apegoEu só posso ter chamego, com quem me faz cafunéComo o vampiro e o morcego é o homem e a mulherO meu linguajar é nato, eu não estou falando gregoEu tenho amores e amigos de fato,Nos lugares onde eu chegoEu estou descontraído, não que eu tivesse bebidoNem que eu tivesse fumado pra falar de vida alheiaMas digo sinceramente, na vida, a coisa mais feiaÉ gente que vive chorando de barriga cheiaÉ gente que vive chorando de barriga cheia

11. ESTAÇÃO DERRADEIRA(Chico Buarque)Marola Edições Musicais Ltda
Rio de ladeirasCivilização encruzilhadaCada ribanceira é uma nação
À sua maneiraCom ladrãoLavadeiras, honra, tradiçãoFronteiras, munição pesada
São Sebastião crivadoNublai minha visãoNa noite da grande Fogueira desvairada
Quero ver a MangueiraDerradeira estaçãoQuero ouvir sua batucada, ai, ai
Rio do lado sem beiraCidadãos Inteiramente loucosCom carradas de razão
À sua maneiraDe calçãoCom bandeiras sem explicaçãoCarreiras de paixão danada
São Sebastião crivadoNublai minha visãoNa noite da grande Fogueira desvairada
Quero ver a MangueiraDerradeira estaçãoQuero ouvir sua batucada, ai, ai
