Nine Out Of Ten

Caetano Veloso

I walk down Portobello road to the sound of reggae 
I’m alive 
The age of gold, yes the age of old 
The age of gold 
The age of music is past 
I hear them talk as I walk yes I hear them talk 
I hear they say 
Expect the final blast; 
I walk down Portobello road to the sound of reggae 
I’m alive 

I’m alive, vivo muito vivo vivo vivo 
Feel the sound of music 
Banging in my belly belly belly
Know that one day I must die 
I’m alive 
And I know that one day I must die 
I’m alive 
Yes I know that one day I must die 

I’m alive vivo muito vivo vivo vivo 
In the eletric cinema or on the telly telly telly 
Nine out of ten movie stars make me cry 
I’m alive 
And nine out of ten movie stars make me cry 
I’m alive
