Antes pudesse dúvida ou vergonha

Renato Sakate 1978 (Botucatu)



Antes pudesse dúvida ou vergonha
enaltecer os trágicos domingos
enrubescer as rosas e os flamingos,
entorpecer-me em pó, pinga e maconha.

Antes pudesse John, Paul, George ou Ringo
emergir submarinos sem peçonha
elucidar o céu para quem sonha,
anoitecer num rock n' roll bem gringo.

Antes quisesse ser pobre e faminto
sedento de água pura em negro lago,
ser escravo da dor por pão e circo

a viver neste andor, bonito e raso
a comer d'um sabor tão nobre e limpo
e não sofrer de amor, nem ser amado.
