Um calo de estimação
Teresa Cristina Lyrics

The lyrics of "Um calo de estimação" by Teresa Cristina talk about a metaphorical "calo," which can be translated as a corn or callus in English, that seems to have become a part of the singer's life. The metaphorical corn is personified in the song, and it seems to be alive, feeling and reacting to different weather conditions. The singer even suggests that the corn can predict the weather, making it an almost magical entity. Despite its importance, the corn causes the singer some discomfort and frustration, and she even suggests that it can be painful.

The song can be interpreted as a metaphor for something in the singer's life that she can't get rid of, but also can't quite embrace. It causes her frustration, but she has learned to live with it, even though it can be painful at times. Like a corn or callus on someone's foot that makes it hard to walk, this "calo" seems to burden the singer in some way, but at the same time, she has learned to live with it and even appreciate it in some way.

The final lines of the song suggest that, just like someone with painful feet should avoid walking too much, the singer should avoid situations that exacerbate her frustration. The message is clear: learn to live with the imperfections you have, even if they cause you discomfort, and avoid situations that make them worse.
