O Chamado do Bar
Matanza Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dia quente, pestilento, sem porquê
Não consigo nem pensar no que fazer
Eis que de repente eu vejo tudo melhorar
Como se eu pudesse ouvir o copo me chamar
Vem pro bar, vem pro bar, vem pro bar
Vem pro bar, vem pro bar, vem pro bar
Vem pro bar, vem pro bar, vem pro bar

Não devo nada pra ninguém
Bebo se eu estiver a fim

A minha vida é minha
E a sua que se foda

Overall Meaning

The song "O Chamado do Bar" by Matanza portrays a character who is feeling miserable and unable to come up with anything to do on a hot and stifling day. However, suddenly, his mood improves significantly as he hears a call from the drink. He is beckoned to the bar to drink and enjoy himself, as though it were something he was always meant to do.

The lyrics suggest a sense of individual freedom and a rejection of societal pressure to conform. The singer declares that he owes nothing to anyone and will drink in whatever manner he pleases. He is unapologetic about his choices and his declaration of such a belief gives the song a sense of rebelliousness.

In essence, "O Chamado do Bar" is a song that celebrates the simple pleasures of drinking and enjoying life outside of expectations. It embraces the idea of living in the moment and being true to oneself rather than worrying about others' opinions or judgments.
