Grandma's Recipe
My grandma used to say
Girl, don't cry over the pitanga
Didn't get what you wanted?
So bite this mango!
Grandma, I'm just a sidekick. Just playing, just rhyming
Let the grown-ups handle the pickles
I couldn't care less about those pineapples I just want to be happy
Until the seed I'm the cherry of the cake
My smile is sugar and hope
No one takes the candy from this child's mouth
To cure adulthood
a tea of childishness
Eases any annoyance
My grandma said
But one day it came out of the oven all warm
Life goes by and you can't keep it in a little pot
go ahead
Watering the plants with raindrop cakes at breakfast
To grow a beautiful candy apple tree
And instead of fighting, let's have brigadeiro
Bakery dreams wrapped in pillows
Wow, my grandchildren, what a blast!
Just punchlines!
Lots of ideas on fire
Yummy!
