Pucko
Bonde Do Rolê Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She came down to Brazil to sun bathe in beachy Rio
And as it is now... She's all chocolate brown
Don't drop that Pucko, menina
Don't drop that Pucko
I have seen her walk change, and I do now confess
She looks quite happy and shine,
She doesn't mind the cheap wine
Because as it is now... She's all chocolate brown
Don't drop that Pucko, menina
Don't drop that Pucko
When she gets back to Stockholm town, everybody will go loco loco wow
Because the Pucko, girl, is now cocoa brown
Man will lose their breath and cry as she walks by
Because as it is now... She's all chocolate brown
Don't drop that Pucko, menina
Don't drop that Pucko
Don't drop that Pucko, menina
Don't drop that Pucko
The song "Pucko" by Bonde do Rolê is a jaunty tune that narrates the story of a Swedish girl who travels to Brazil to sunbathe in beachy Rio. The singer describes the girl's physical transformation as she spends more time under the sun, changing from a milky white skin tone to a chocolate brown complexion. The song title "Pucko" is repeated throughout the song, which refers to a chocolate milk drink that is popular in Sweden.
The singer admires the girl's newfound confidence and happiness as she walks with a new stride and wears a flower print dress. The lyrics refer to the girl's indifference towards drinking cheap wine, suggesting that she is now comfortable in her skin and enjoying her time in Brazil. The last verse predicts that when she returns to Stockholm, everyone will be amazed at her new look and men will be in awe of her beauty.
The song is playful and celebratory of the girl embracing a new identity and culture. It touches on interracial relationships and the beauty of diversity, portraying the girl's new look as something to be appreciated and admired.
