E.T. Katy Perry Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ê que bela quitanda, quitandinha de Erê
Seu balancê tem quintadinha de Erê

É isso, é isso, é isso, vamo' assim
Que beleza, que beleza, que beleza Grande Rio

Ô, Zeca, tu 'tá morando ondé?
Saí com meu povo a te procurar
Botei minha cerva na encruzilhada
Pra moça da saia rodada e pro homê da capa

Cadê você?
É alvorada do seu padroeiro
Pra agradecer
Ao mensageiro de São Jorge Guerreiro
Tem patuá pra proteger
E tem mandinga no Velho Engenho
Quem tem um santo poderoso que é Ogum?
Eu tenho

Nas bandas do Irajá, gelada no botequim
Assim vou vadiar até no gurufim
Se tem patota, Ibeji e ajeum
Salve Cosme e Damião, Doum!

Ê que bela quitanda, quitandinha de Erê!
Seu balancê
Tem quitandinha de Erê!
Ê que bela quitanda, quitandinha de Erê!
Seu balancê
Tem quitandinha de Erê!

Passei procurando na feira
Em Del Castilho e na Tamarineira
E na gafieira, boêmios, malandros
Pelos sete lados eu vou te cercando

Jessé! Jessé! (Jessé! Jessé!)
Fiz um pagode pra Madrinha, salve ela!
Saudei a voz da Velha Guarda da Portela
E lá na roça vi florir um Carnaval (Zeca)

Zeca!
Levante o copo para o povo brasileiro
Te encontrei nesse terreiro
Xerém é o seu quintal!

Deixa a vida me levar
Onde o samba tem valor
Meu candiá
Encandeou!
Sou Grande Rio carregado de axé
Minha gira girou na fé!

Deixa a vida me levar
Onde o samba tem valor
Meu candiá
Encandeou!
Sou Grande Rio carregado de axé
Minha gira girou na fé, oh Zeca

Ô, Zeca, tu 'tá morando ondé? 'Tá morando ondé?
Saí com meu povo a te procurar
Botei minha cerva na encruzilhada
Pra moça da saia rodada e pro homê da capa

Cadê você?
É alvorada do seu padroeiro
Pra agradecer
Ao mensageiro de São Jorge Guerreiro
Tem patuá pra proteger (tem patuá pra proteger)
E tem mandinga no Velho Engenho
Quem tem um santo poderoso que é Ogum?
Eu tenho

Nas bandas do Irajá, gelada no botequim
Assim vou vadiar até no gurufim
Se tem patota, Ibeji e ajeum
Salve Cosme e Damião, Doum!

Ê que bela quitanda, quitandinha de Erê!

Ê que bela quitanda, quitandinha de Erê!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song E.T. by Katy Perry, seemingly suggest a relationship with an extraterrestrial being. The song describes the singer, who is possibly human, being drawn to the other-worldly being, who she perceives to be either a devil or an angel because of their hypnotic touch. It could also suggest that the extraterrestrial is similar to a futuristic lover, with different DNA that people refuse to understand.


The singer is portrayed as being captivated by the extraterrestrial's powers and magic, almost worshipping them. The lyrics describe how the extraterrestrial opens her eyes to a new dimension and leads her into the light. She is ready to be taken and be abducted, and has an ardent desire to be filled with poison, seemingly a nod to a toxic relationship.


The lyrics can be interpreted in many ways, but the overall theme is that of someone who is powerless against an entity they can not control, as extraterrestrial beings are often depicted in popular culture. It is also worth noting that some interpretations of the song suggest that the extraterrestrial being is a metaphor for fame and celebrity culture, which can have a hypnotic and intoxicating effect on those who pursue it.
