Churros
Biltre Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Com ela era amor, mas eu sei, me enganei.
Não dei atenção e depois me estrepei.
O amor é como um churros: é tão bom no primeiro pedaço, mas depois é um esforço danado pra espremer o docinho do fundo.

Overall Meaning

These lyrics from Biltre's song Churros talk about a failed relationship where the singer confesses that he was in love with his partner. However, he didn't pay enough attention to the relationship and ultimately messed it up. The lyrics compare love to a churro, a popular Brazilian street food. Just like when someone takes the first bite of a churro it's delicious, love is the same way. Everything is great in the beginning, but as time goes by, it becomes harder to squeeze out the sweet filling at the bottom. In this case, the "docinho" or sweet filling is the love that the singer had for his partner.

The song elucidates the idea that love is not always easy. At first, everything is sweet and easy, but after a while, it can be hard to maintain that initial spark. These lyrics are pretty relatable for anyone who has been in a long-term relationship. It's hard to keep the flame alive, and sometimes, it dies down completely. The song's lyrics remind us that love needs attention, nurture, and effort to thrive.
