Últimas Notícias Lyrics (English Translation) – Papyrus da Batata

In 3, 2, 1, recording!

Welcome
This is the latest news
Another person died
But of course I know you don’t care

You didn’t even know, what changes in your life?
So many bad things happen every day
Just a minute
Buy this product

Families are losing their homes
Prejudice increases, people murdered
In the middle of the shooting, they hit the wrong person
And it’s another mother who cried

Of course you have an opinion
And you know who the hero or the villain is
And does this discussion matter more than the situation itself?
Oh no, no, no, no, oh no, no, no, no

The screen never lies to you
If there’s someone you can trust, it’s your cell phone or TV.
The screen never lies to you
It’s your family and friends who are lying, so fight!

Stay connected (Hey!)
And connected (Hey!)

So fight to always be right (Hey!)
Above God, only your opinion (Hey!)
You will only need to maintain
The eyes on the television

Why look?
Who will call?
No one will care
Just ignore
On the social networks
Or on television
Come humble yourself
For a little approval

Huh, of course it won’t get better
There are a lot of hidden things, especially your face
Every day something new, a fight, something exposed
That artist you loved, now it’s just a heartbreak

The world needs more stars
But stars have stopped shining
The world needs more smiles
But someone will judge your smile

I liked a movie: Bad!
Look at the song I found: Worse!
I think I’m a mistake: There, yes!
What if he died? Better!

We remain addicted
More, more, more, more!

The weather forecast is hot as hell
But I’ve already read the news that Global Warming doesn’t exist
They say we’re heading towards the end
But apparently, I have to be impartial

Now: sports
Team A beat Team B, then they went to the box
Hey! Also in sports
Team A beat Team B and there was death in the stands

Thanks for watching, we’re at the end
Tomorrow at the same time and on the same channel
Don’t trust others, everyone is evil now
We guarantee that you will be afraid, afraid of the real world!

Stay connected (Hey!)
And connected (Hey!)

So fight to always be right (Hey!)
Above God, only your opinion (Hey!)
You will only need to maintain
The eyes on the television

Why look?
Who will call?
No one will care
Just ignore
On the social networks
Or on television
Come humble yourself
For a little approval

Why look?
Who will call?
They won’t call
The eyes on the television
Will you mind?
Just ignore
The eyes on the television

“Welcome, this is the latest news, another person died, but of course, I know you don’t care.” This opening verse sets the tone for the song, highlighting the desensitization and indifference prevalent in society towards tragic events.

“The screen never lies to you, if there’s someone you can trust, it’s your cell phone or TV.
