Decolando
Mc Léléto Lyrics

The lyrics of Mc Léléto's song Decolando are a mixture of suggestive dance instructions and playful metaphors. The opening lines of the song encourage the listener to put their hands on their knees and lift their buttocks, while one hand is suggested to go forward. This is an invitation to dance based on the kind of twerking that is popular in Brazil, where the song originated. The playful tone of the lyrics continues throughout the rest of the song.

The chorus of the song is an affirmation of the power of the dance to lift the spirit, as the performer declares that they are "taking off" and "flying" with their buttocks. This metaphor for the liberating and freeing qualities of dance resonates with the Brazilian tradition of using dance as a form of resistance and liberation. The lyrics of the chorus repeat the phrase "Decolando com o bumbum" or "Taking off with the buttocks" in a way that emphasizes the rhythmic quality of the lyrics.

The references to coming back down to earth in the lyrics of the song suggest that the performer is aware of the transitory nature of the ecstatic state that dance can create. However, this is not portrayed as a negative, but rather as an inevitable part of the cycle of life, where what goes up must come down. The closing lines of the song, which invite the listener to "land their buttocks" suggest that even though the dance may come to an end, its benefits can be felt long after the music stops.
