lyrics

front man push ahead
this feels like a fest
it's because of our language
that there is war in Portugal
this is American wine
in Madeira there is none alike


telephone call:

we also export Madeira wine, yes yes yes,
we export Madeira wine and now
table wine is already being produced in Madeira,
there are some companies producing it
but the quantities are not very big, right?
and the price... it makes the price not very...
I mean, a bottle of table wine from Madeira is not so...
you can't buy it in the supermarket for three euros.
oh wines from Alentejo... forget it, forget it, no, no, ok?
kisses, bye bye bye


song:

the boss meets the control
how much will you pay us?
careful with the end man
the wine will spill


telephone call:

and then, there is a huge wine and rum business,
which are the wine casks, of Madeira wine.
a wine barrel that matures Madeira wine,
you have no idea of that barrel's value...
and if the barrel has like one-hundred
or two-hundred years...

man companies like Jack Daniels,
the big whiskeys, the big whiskey brands,
big whiskeys buy those for the price of gold
and there was, for many years,
a giant mafia in Madeira,
selling those old barrels we had,
it was so huge, that all of a sudden
Madeira was almost at risk of not having any barrels


song:

I'm been working for so long
and the boss has not paid me


telephone call:

and so, they started doing something else,
which was, now they're renting the oak barrels,
so these are rented for two-hundred years
or one-hundred and fifty years


song:

how much will you pay me?
if you don't pay me I'll sing no more
