You Don't Have To Know The L..

Supposin' you need a vacation,
Brazil is the place you should be;
So you can't understand what they're saying,
And you can't read a sign that you see.
But you don't have to know the language,
With the moon in the sky and a boy in your arms and a look in his eye!

You stop at the Copacabana,
With Sugar Loaf Mountain in view;
So the words on a menu mean nothing,
You can't ask a soul what to do!
But you don't have to know the language,
With the moon in the sky and a boy in your arms and a look in his eye!

When he smiles your way,
What more would you want anybody to say?
So you sigh, just sigh,
You don't have to mention that phrase, "Aye-aye!".

Perhaps when you end your vacation,
You'll bring back a bit of Brazil.
So you can't understand what he's saying,
You need an interpreter still!
But you don't have to know the language,
With the moon in the sky and a boy in your arms and a look in his eye!
No, you don't have to know the language,
If you don't want to say goodbye!
