lyrics

Lovers and madmen have such seething brains,
Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
More than cool reason ever comprehends.
The lunatic, the lover and the poet
Are of imagination all compact.
One sees more devils than vast hell can hold:
That is, the madman. The lover, all as frantic,
Sees Helen's beauty in a brow of Egypt.
The poet's eye, in fine frenzy rolling,
Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven,
And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet's pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.
Such tricks hath strong imagination,
That if it would but apprehend some joy,
It comprehends some bringer of that joy;

Doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven,

Or in the night, imagining some fear,
How easy is a bush supposed a bear!


Sambinha para Willian
music: João Farinha
text: Maria João

Carolina carolice
Calorias demais
Encalorada Carolina
Muitos quilos a mais

Seu William que é poeta
Bem magrinho peso pluma
Apaixonado pela nega
Procurando sua espuma
Amando muito a matulona
Se aninhando nela

E o seu vizinho um tal Romeu
Entregador de pizza fast
E se acabava todo dia pela sua Julieta
Que coisa linda os dois casais
Muito close muito hot
Troca troca entre si
Mas que saudável fusuê

Viva Juli
Viva Willy
Viva Romeu
Viva Carol
Vivao Amor
Vivao Amor
Deixa eu pôr-te a mão
Nalguns sítios noutros não
Abra bem seu coração

Viva o amor
Viva Carol
Seu William
