She was far, the sea was near
Treachery in the atmosphere
I wish I could have kept that stuff in Brazil
I went to another town
Took a bus and boogied down
I wish I could have kept that fact in Brazil
He was such a bad, bad boy
She found out and really cried
Her name was Sol and she was cool
She had a boyfriend who played the flute
So I decided to make out with her best friend
We went out to a night club
Kissed a lot but didn’t fuck
She was reticent because it was her period
He was such a bad, bad boy
She found out and really cried
And now he’s all alone without her love
But he’s got a lot of memories
And some sexual diseases
But I would have preferred to have kept her love
We could have had a family
But now all that I’ve got is this bossa nova song gone wrong
She was there when I got off the plane
But I couldn’t tell her half of my game
Because I was already cheating on her with a French girl
We went home, she looked at my phone
Saw the picture of my little Flo
And now she decided that she didn’t want to be my girlfriend no more
