Brasil '66 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Since six corners of H2O
Well now I'm in the studio
Inferio
I got buckets of soul
Rockin' the flo'
And I'm chilling with
My man on the piano
And he's rockin' the sound
He on your radio
And he don't want you down
Come on now here we go
He funky rush with his hands
My man, as spins the melody man
Do do do do do do
Do doo doo doo doo
Will he keep a steady heavy rock in the mix
I am sixteen rockin' to the '66
Now I'm tres deuce
Sergio '66
And we launched timed this in 2006
And now we're dropping this
Dropping this new itch
Ain't no stoppin' us
That's why they're taking the flicks
My man Antonio on the guitar tricks
Watch my man Lemer
On the bass right quick, check it
Do do do do do do
Do doo doo doo doo
The lyrics to the song Agua de Beber by Brasil '66 start off with the singer talking about how it's been a long time coming and how they've got buckets of soul. The song is about the power of water and how it's a necessity for life. The six corners of H2O refers to the six molecules that make up water. The singer is in the studio, recording the song with his bandmates. Sergio, the man on the piano, is "rockin' the sound" and "he's on your radio" which shows that he's popular and people enjoy his music. The funky rush of the song comes from Sergio's hands on the piano and his melody creation. The repetition of "Do do do do do do" and "Do doo doo doo doo" adds to the fun, laid-back feel of the song and makes the listener want to dance.
The lyrics then move on to talk about how the singer is now sixteen and rockin' to the '66. This could be a reference to the year 1966, which was the year that the bossa nova and samba music, with which Brasil '66 was associated, became popular in the United States. The singer is "tres deuce" which means he's twenty-three years old, and Sergio is still "rockin' the '66" which shows that they are still creating music in the style of the 1960s. The chorus repeats itself, adding to the simple nature of the song, and the last few lines are about the band and how they are unstoppable. They reference Antonio on the guitar and Lemer on the bass, which shows that the band is not just the singer and Sergio, but a group of talented musicians working together to create great music.
