No meu amor sempre tem dor
Tudo pelo meu prazer
A favela-vela-vela
A, a favela-vela-vela
A favela-vela-vela
A, vela-vela-vela-vela (Ó, ó, ó, ó)

Can you remember when the last time was
You felt safe in the dark?
This world was never meant for a woman's heart
But still, you rise through it all

When I'm out of breath, she's my vitals (Ooh-ooh)
When I need to rev, she's my ride-or-die
When I'm out of faith, she's my idol
I just killed a man, she's my alibi

Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú

Tout est nasty
(Que des) Que des mélo-mélo' dans ma tête
(Que) Que des mélo-mélo' dans ma tête
(Que) Que des mélo-mélo' dans ma tête
My baby, doudou (Tú, tú)
Bisous dans le cou (Tú)
Sur mon corps tu donneras tout (Tú), tout (Tú)
Do you want it, do you want it too?

Ton corps sera mon été (Ahh)
J'ai mis ton cœur de côté
Fini le temps des poètes
Je les hais comme je les aime
Quand je tue un homme, c'est mon alibi

Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú

Muito prazer em conhecer
O causador de todo o teu sofrer
E eu vim de longe só pra te dizer
Tu é o meu malquerer
No meu amor sempre tem dor
Ela é o meu álibi

Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú (I just killed a man, she's my alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres (Alibi)
Rosa, qué linda eres tú
