Seu Jorge Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pro mar azul
E não me importa se vamos pro Norte ou se vamos pro Sul
A nossa viagem is very cool
Próxima parada é a bela de Malibu
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
Estamos felizes para chuchu
Não tem problema se no barco tem um cheiro forte de peixe cru
Todos vão cantar meu rock/blue
Enquanto o chefe toma banho na praia totalmente nu
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
Team Zissou
On the water I love you
The lyrics to Seu Jorge's song "Team Zissou" depict a journey on the sea with the titular Team Zissou, and the carefree attitude that comes with such a trip. The singer notes that it doesn't matter which direction they're headed in, the excursion is already "very cool". The next stop on their journey is the beautiful Malibu, and the crew is elated, singing and enjoying themselves despite the strong smell of raw fish on the boat. The captain himself takes a nude swim at the beach, showcasing the free-spirited nature of their adventure. The repetition of the chorus emphasizes the joy of being on the water with the Team Zissou crew.
The song's overall theme is one of escapism and enjoying life to the fullest in the carefree atmosphere of the ocean. The lyrics suggest that the journey itself is just as important as the destination, and that the experiences along the way are ones to be cherished. The use of phrases such as "felizes para chuchu" and "todos vão cantar meu rock/blue" convey a sense of positivity and liveliness that comes with being surrounded by friends and experiencing new things.

(Repeat once)
Bridge:

F - G
(Repeat Chorus)
*During the chorus there's a walkdown from an Am to an Am6. To do that, you just play an Am barre chord and move the note on the D string down one fret at a time from the 7th fret (Am), to the 6th fret (AmM7) and the 5th (Am7). After that you have to jump to this chord shape for Am6:
Am6
e - x -
b - 5 -
G - 5 -
D - 4 -
A - x -
E - 5 -
(Btw if you don't know, D9 is played by taking the Am6 chord and moving your Middle finger to the 5th fret of the A string instead of the E.)

My car radio blew its speakers, and my friend Eric and I had 3 more hours to drive. He then proceeded to play this song on his phone for the rest of the trip, it was the best experience of my life.

First I heard of Seu Jorge was this song. And what a song it is. I don't have very much else by him except for the studio sessions for Zissou, but they are very good.
