Bonde do Rolê Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pra sacar qualé a parada
Os barbudo tão nervoso
Com as popozuda embriaga
Motoqueiro fecha o cu
Se vem funkeiro pela área
As gotia jaburu tão aula de lambada
Slipknot? é coisa de cuzão
Eu quero ver o Bruce Dicksson
Requebrar até o chão
O avião das bréck metal
Judas Priest contagia
Manowar só de tanguinha
Os cabeludo a dançar
O bonde faz eles pular
Bonde do Rolê?
É quem entende da farofagi
Marilyn Manson não me assusta
Tocar br'oz é malandragi
The lyrics of Bondallica by Bonde do Rolé are a humorous take on the culture clash that can occur in the world of music, specifically between fans of heavy metal and fans of funk music. The singer describes going to a gathering of "trevosos" (a slang term for fans of heavy metal) and observing the tension between them and the "popozudas" (a term for fans of funk music who typically dance provocatively). The "barbudos" (bearded metal fans) are described as nervous, possibly because of the presence of the popozudas who are inebriated.
The singer also notes that if a funkeiro (funk music fan) enters the area, a "motoqueiro" (motorcyclist) will "fechar o cu," which roughly translates to "tighten up." This may be a reference to the perceived territoriality and aggression of metal fans. The singer sees Slipknot as "coisa de cuzão" (a derogatory term roughly meaning "lame"), but suggests that those interested in hard core music should seek out the "pancadão" (big party) instead. The lyrics then namecheck various musicians and bands in the heavy metal genre, including Bruce Dicksson of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Manowar, and the "cabeludos" (long-haired headbangers) who dance to their music. The Bonde do Rolé themselves are regarded as experts in the "farofagi" (a term for the energetic, danceable music they create).
Overall, the lyrics of Bondallica suggest a playful, irreverent attitude towards the rigid categories that music fans are sometimes placed in. The singer seems to be advocating for a more open-minded approach to music and entertainment, with a focus on having fun.
