Patroa Meaning & Lyrics (Archie)
Aurora Pinto writes that the heart has a new female boss who can’t be denied. Archie sings about selling everything to be with his love, making work responsibilities feel insignificant. The lyrics show love trumping career obligations.
Hoje Eu Nao VouI’m not going today.
Impossivel Pra Mim ComparecerIt’s impossible for me to show up.
Marcaram Me Um Compromisso UrgenteThey booked me for an urgent appointment,
E Nao Eu Nao Posso DizerAnd no, I can’t say what it is.
Amanha Talvez Nao Va TambemMaybe I won’t go tomorrow either.
E Melhor Contratarem AlguemYou’d better hire someone else,
Que Eu Ja Esgotei Os Dias De FolgaBecause I’ve already used up my days off,
E Os Da Ferias Ja GozeiAnd I’ve already taken my vacation.
Amor Ja Liguei Pra LaBaby, I already called them.
Amanha Nao Tenho De IrI don’t have to go in tomorrow.
Diz-Me Onde E Que EstasTell me where you are,
E Que Os Teus OlhosBecause your eyes…
Dao Vontade De Vender A Casa O CarroMake me want to sell the house, the car,
E Mudar De PaisAnd move to another country.
E Ir Embora E Nunca Mais Voltar AquiAnd leave and never come back here.
Queimar As PastasBurn the files,
Bater Com A PortaSlam the door,
E Mandar Lixar O Meu ChefeAnd tell my boss to get lost.
O Meu Coracao Ja Tem Patroa E Nao Se EsqueceMy heart already has a ‘female boss’, and it won’t forget,
Que Te Pertence A TiThat it belongs to you.
Que Ja Nao Pertence AquiThat it doesn’t belong here anymore,
Que Te Pertence A TiThat it belongs to you.
O Meu Coracao Ja Tem Patrao E Nao Se EsqueceMy heart already has a boss, and it won’t forget,
Que Te Pertence A TiThat it belongs to you.
Chefe Nao Me De A EscolherBoss, don’t make me choose,
Entre O Amor E A ProfissaoBetween love and my profession.
No Trabalho Se Nao For Eu E OutroAt work, if it’s not me, it’s someone else,
Mas Na Vida Dela NaoBut in her life, no.
Para A Semana Vou Estar DoenteI’m going to be sick next week.
Eu E Acho Que Vou Por Baixa Para SempreI think I’ll go on sick leave forever.
E Melhor Encontrarem AlguemYou’d better find someone,
A Quem O Amor Nao Roube TempoWho doesn’t have love stealing their time.
Amor Ja Liguei Pra LaBaby, I already called them.
Amanha Nao Tenho De IrI don’t have to go in tomorrow.
Diz-Me Onde E Que EstasTell me where you are,
E Que Os Teus OlhosBecause your eyes…
Dao Vontade De Vender A Casa O CarroMake me want to sell the house, the car,
E Mudar De PaisAnd move to another country.
E Ir Embora E Nunca Mais Voltar AquiAnd leave and never come back here.
Queimar As PastasBurn the files,
Bater Com A PortaSlam the door,
E Mandar Lixar O Meu ChefeAnd tell my boss to get lost.
O Meu Coracao Ja Tem Patroa E Nao Se EsqueceMy heart already has a ‘female boss’, and it won’t forget,
Que Te Pertence A TiThat it belongs to you.
Oh No NoOh, no, no.
