Fazendo Surf
Asterisco Cardinal Bomba Caveira Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Compraste uma prancha ontem
5'8 já com deck
Nem é o mais importante
Trabalha o teu six pack
Hoje dão ondas na costa
Surfamos na Riviera
Olha as miudas da Nova
Com a tua prancha nova

(Nah nah nah...)

Ficas muito bem na fotografia
Mas nunca te vejo em pé
Fotógrafo é que tem toda a mestria
A ciência e a fé
E as meninas que tanto te amam
Será que já foram à praia
Será que já viram o mar
Viram-te a surfar
Porque na fotografia
Também eu faço surf

(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)

Estás muito concentrado
E só te vejo a remar
Enquanto olhas p'ró lado
Tubarão vai te pegar
O set já passou e tu foste enrolado
A fotografia foi tirada
Mas é para ser apagada

(Nah nah nah...)

Ficas muito bem na fotografia
Mas nunca te vejo em pé
Fotógrafo é que tem toda a mestria
A ciência e a fé
E as meninas que tanto te amam
Será que já foram à praia
Será que já viram o mar
Viram-te a surfar
Porque na fotografia
Também eu faço surf

(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)




(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)
(Fafafafafa- fazendo surf)

Overall Meaning

The song "Fazendo Surf" by Asterisco Cardinal Bomba Caveira is a song about the superficiality of modern-day surf culture. The lyrics describe the singer who has just bought a new surfboard and is more focused on showing off and taking pictures than actually surfing. The lyrics encourage the singer to work on his six-pack and focus on surfing the waves rather than just being seen with a new surfboard. The song also critiques the surf culture that emphasizes the importance of being photographed while surfing, instead of actually enjoying the experience of riding the waves.


The lyrics "Ficas muito bem na fotografia, Mas nunca te vejo em pé" translate to "You look great in the picture, but I never see you standing up." This line highlights the idea that the singer's main focus is on the image rather than the experience. The lyrics "E as meninas que tanto te amam será que já foram à praia, será que já viram o mar, viram-te a surfar" translate to "And the girls who love you so much, have they been to the beach, have they seen the sea, have they seen you surf?" This line suggests that the singer is only interested in impressing others and getting attention for his new surfboard, rather than actually enjoying the sport.


Overall, the song "Fazendo Surf" criticizes the modern-day surf culture's focus on image and superficiality, urging people to focus more on the experience of surfing rather than just being seen surfing.
