Tananaram
Nina Las Vegas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

To de cabelo na regua
De bigode fino e juju no rosto

Tento fica equilibrado
Pq essas corda pesa no pescoço

O dj que me falo
Que baile hoje vai ta boladão

To em cima da garupa
De copo na mão e outra na guidão

Eu nao quero saber de nada
Eu só quero acelerar

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nina Las Vegas's song Tananaram describe a party scene where the singer is balancing the weight of the cords around their neck while attempting to remain composed. They have a finely trimmed mustache and markings on their face. They are on the back of a motorcycle with a drink in hand, heading towards a carnival, urged to do so by the DJ who warned them of its excitement. The lyrics end with a repetition of "PANANANANANRAM," perhaps signaling the singer's eagerness and anticipation for the party.

The lyrics present a vivid picture of the party atmosphere and the singer's excitement to be present. The weight of the cords around the neck creates a sense of burden, but the singer remains eager and determined to have a good time. The use of Portuguese words and phrases, such as "juju" and "garupa," adds a sense of cultural depth and authenticity to the narrative. The mix of English and Portuguese can be seen as a nod to the artist's Australian-Portuguese heritage and her desire to represent and embrace her cultural roots.

To de cabelo na regua
My hair is perfectly groomed

De bigode fino e juju no rosto
I have a thin mustache and a beauty mark on my face

Tento fica equilibrado
I'm trying to stay balanced

Pq essas corda pesa no pescoço
Because these ropes are weighing down my neck

O dj que me falo
The DJ told me

Que baile hoje vai ta boladão
That the party tonight is going to be crazy

To em cima da garupa
I'm on top of the saddle

De copo na mão e outra na guidão
With a drink in one hand and another on the handlebars

Eu nao quero saber de nada
I don't want to know about anything else

Eu só quero acelerar
I just want to speed up
