Caetano Veloso - Maria Bethania Lyrics

Artist: Caetano Veloso

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Veloso Caetano

Everybody knows that our cities
Were built to be destroyed
You get annoyed, you buy a flat
You hide behind the mat

But I know she was born
To do everything wrong with all of that
Maria Bethânia, please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better

Better, better, Beta, Beta, Bethânia
Please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better

She has given her soul to the devil
But the devil gave his soul to God
Before the flood, after the blood
Before you can see

She has given her soul to the devil
And bought a flat by the sea
Maria Bethânia, please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better

Better, better, Beta, Beta, Bethânia
Please send me a letter
I wish to know things are getting better

Everybody knows that it's so hard
To dig and get to the root
You eat the fruit, you go ahead
You wake up on your bed

But I love her face
'Cause it has nothing to do with all I said
