Dazaranha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Se você fuma no seu Chevrolet
Se você fuma no seu Chevrolet
E o menino no banco de trás em pé...
E o menino no banco de trás em pé diz que não quer, diz que não quer não diz
Solo de violino
Repete (verso)
Solo de violino
E o menino diz, não diz, diz não não não, pra quem é de sim (3x)
Solo de violino, guitarra e percussão
The lyrics of Dazaranha's song "Chevrolet" describe a scene of a person smoking inside their car, a Chevrolet, while a child stands on the back seat saying they don't want to smoke. The repetition of the verse emphasizes the act of smoking inside a confined space while a child is present. The violin solo that separates the verses adds an emotional layer to the song, perhaps suggesting that the child's discomfort is a result of the smoke affecting them. The final lines of the song say "and the child says no, says no, says no, to those who say yes," implying that the child is aware of the dangers of smoking and is rejecting it.
Looking at the song broadly, "Chevrolet" can be interpreted as a commentary on the harmful effects of smoking and the lack of consideration some people have for those around them when they smoke. However, the focus on the child's discomfort also highlights the importance of protecting children from the dangers of secondhand smoke.
Overall, the lyrics of "Chevrolet" are concise yet powerful in their message. The use of repetition, violin solos, and a child's voice create an emotional impact that stays with the listener.
