Um Lugar do Caralho
Jupiter Apple Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eu preciso encontrar
Um lugar legal pra mim dançar
E me escabelar

Tem que ter um som legal
Tem que ter gente legal e ter
Cerveja barata.

Um lugar onde as pessoas sejam mesmo a fudê,
Um lugar onde as pessoas sejam loucas
E super chapadas
Um lugar do caralho

Sozinho pelas ruas de
São Paulo eu quero achar alguém pra mim,
Um alguém tipo assim:

Que goste de beber e falar
LSD queira tomar e curta,
Syd Barrett e os Beatles

Um lugar e um alguém que tornarão-me mais feliz
Um lugar onde as pessoas sejam loucas
e super chapadas
Um lugar do caralho

Sozinho pelas ruas de
São Paulo eu quero achar alguém pra mim,
Um alguém tipo assim:

Que goste de beber e falar
LSD queira tomar e curta,
Syd Barrett e os Beatles

Um lugar e um alguém que tornarão-me mais feliz
Um lugar onde as pessoas sejam loucas

e super chapadas
Um lugar do caralho

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jupiter Apple's song "Um Lugar do Caralho" express the desire to find a place where one can dance and let loose. The singer is wandering the streets of São Paulo, searching for this special place where he can truly be himself. The lyrics describe the criteria for such a place: it must have good music, cool people and cheap beer. But more than that, it must be a place where people are wild and carefree, where they drink and do drugs, and where the music of Syd Barrett and The Beatles fills the air. The singer wants to find someone who shares these values and interests, someone who will make him happier and take him to this "lugar do caralho" (awesome place).

The lyrics can be interpreted in various ways. On the surface, they are about partying and having fun, but they also reflect a deeper desire for connection and belonging. The singer is searching for a community of like-minded people, who share his love for music and his desire to escape the pressures of the mundane world. The song can be seen as a critique of mainstream society, which is depicted as boring and repressive, and which forces people to conform to its norms and values. The "lugar do caralho" represents a utopian alternative, a place where people can be themselves and live according to their own rules.
