A todos os escravos da minha geração

Reaction to the premiere of the protest song "Parva que sou" performed by Deolinda in a concert at Oporto Coliseum on January 22th 2011. Already being called the anthem of a generation. Sadly, mine...

DEOLINDA - "WHAT A FOOL I AM"

"I am of the generation without remuneration
and this condition does not even bother me.
what a fool l am!

Because this is bad and it will go on,
I am already lucky to be a trainee.
what a fool l am!

And I keep thinking,
what a silly world
where to be a slave one must study.

I am of the generation stay-home-with-mum-and-dad
if I already have everything, why ask for more?
what a fool l am!

Children, husband, I keep putting them off
and I still have to pay off the car,
what a fool l am!

And I keep thinking,
what a silly world
where to be a slave one must study.

I am of the generation complain-what-for?
there is someone worse than me on TV.
what a fool l am!

I am of the generation I-have-had-enough
this-situation-has-been-lasting-far-too-long!
And I am not a fool!!!

And I keep thinking,
what a silly world
where to be a slave one must study."
