The music of Brazil encompasses various regional music styles influenced by African, European and Amerindian forms. After 500 years of history, Brazilian music developed some unique and original styles such as choro, sertanejo, brega, lalago, frevo, samba, maracatu, Bossa nova, MPB, Brazilian rock, axé and others.
Samba is without doubt the best known form of Brazilian music worldwide, although Bossa nova and other genres have also received much attention abroad. Brazil also has a growing community of modern/experimental composition, including electroacoustic music.

Cansei de Ser Sexy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gimme 3 wishes
I wanna be that dirtyfinger and his six bitches
A la la, a la la
Gimme more 2
I wanna be in that crazy band or meuku
A la la, a la la
Would you be kind
Gimme one little more
And i'll be superfine
A la la, a la la
You're so cool
Can i be your friend?
I'll drive till the end
Cuz you know but you don't wanna
Cuz you want but you can't have it
Cuz you know but you don't wanna
Cuz you want but you can't have it
A la la, a la la
I'm so worried
I bought that posh clothing
But it still looks ugly
A la la, a la la
Am i stoopid?
I'm doing the talking
But i don't get nothing
A la la, a la la
Alguém me avisa
Quando é bom parar
De fazer a íntima
A la la, a la la
You're so cool
Can i be your friend?
I'll drive it till the end
Cuz you know but you don't wanna
Cuz you want but you can't have it
Cuz you know but you don't wanna
Cuz you want but you can't have it
The lyrics of Cansei de Ser Sexy's Alala resonate with themes of desire, envy, and frustration. From the beginning of the song, the singer expresses their desire for three things: to be like "dirtyfinger" and his six bitches; to be in a crazy band or "meuku"; and to have one more thing to make them "superfine." The repetition of "a la la" gives the impression of someone daydreaming or lost in thought, perhaps longing for a life that they feel is out of reach.
The verse "Cuz you know but you don't wanna, Cuz you want but you can't have it" reinforces this idea of unattainable desires, as the singer acknowledges that they are aware of what they want, but they either can't or won't pursue it. This could be interpreted as a critique of consumer culture, where people are bombarded with images of what they should want and be, but are ultimately unable to achieve those standards.
The latter half of the song turns inward, with the singer questioning their own worth and intelligence. They wonder if they are "stupid" for not getting what they want, and express frustration with their own inability to read social cues ("doing the talking but i don't get nothing"). The outro of the song returns to the idea of wanting to be friends with someone cool and driving until the end, suggesting a desire for connection and belonging.
Overall, the lyrics of Alala capture a sense of restlessness and dissatisfaction with the status quo, but also the recognition that some things may be unattainable or not worth pursuing.
