[English]

Ladies and gentlemen

This girl likes to raise hell

Can you believe it?

Who would have thought, huh?

This girl has no shame

Likes to raise hell

She's even given me insomnia

My peace is over

Nightmare of the jealous ones

Dream of those who haven't tasted her

When she goes down it's like an earthquake

She sits and doesn't stop, she raises hell

When she goes down it's like an earthquake

She sits and doesn't stop, she raises hell

When I go down it's like an earthquake

I twerk and don't stop, I raise hell

When I go down it's like an earthquake

I twerk and don't stop, I raise hell

Daring, powerful

I like to raise hell

To see you lose your mind

Your peace is over

Nightmare of the jealous ones

Your desire, I know it's me

When I go down it's like an earthquake

I twerk, I don't stop, I raise hell

When I go down it's like an earthquake

I twerk, I don't stop, I raise hell

When she goes down it's like an earthquake

She sits and doesn't stop, she raises hell

When she goes down it's like an earthquake

She sits and doesn't stop...

And she got into my head - in an indecent way

I don't eat anymore, I don't sleep anymore - I'm going to get sick

She wants it again

She's already fallen into my game

Can't get burned? - Then why play with fire?

But I'm a striker

I'm going to turn the game around

I'm going to go for it, - turning the game around is more fun

I'll win this thing

You can stay tuned

You'll see I'm the best

Ah... can you believe it?

When I go down it's like an earthquake

I twerk, I don't stop, I raise hell

When she goes down it's like an earthquake

She sits and doesn't stop, she raises hell

I go down, I don't stop, I twerk, I raise hell

And she goes down, doesn't stop, twerks, raises hell

I go down, I don't stop, I twerk, I raise hell

And she goes down, doesn't stop, twerks, raises hell

Call her, dude...

-Anitta? - -Hm?

When you twerk, what's it like?

Like an earthquake

Who would have thought?

Can you believe it?

[Portuguese]

Senhoras e senhores

Essa mina gosta de tocar o terror

Cê acredita?

Quem diria, hein?

Essa mina é sem vergonha

Gosta de tocar o terror

Já me deu até insônia

Meu sossego acabou

Pesadelo da invejosa

Sonho de quem não provou

Quando ela desce é igual terremoto

Ela senta e não para, ela toca o terror

Quando ela desce é igual terremoto

Ela senta e não para, ela toca o terror

Quando eu desço é igual terremoto

Rebolo e não paro, eu toco o terror

Quando eu desço é igual terremoto

Rebolo e não paro, eu toco o terror

Atrevida, poderosa

Gosto de tocar o terror

Pra te ver perdendo a linha

Teu sossego acabou

Pesadelo da invejosa

Teu desejo eu sei que eu sou

Quando eu desço é igual terremoto

Rebolo, não paro, eu toco o terror

Quando eu desço é igual terremoto

Rebolo, não paro, eu toco o terror

Quando ela desce é igual terremoto

Ela senta e não para, ela toca o terror

Quando ela desce é igual terremoto

Ela senta e não para...

E ela entrou na minha mente de um jeito indecente

Não como mais, não durmo mais, eu vou ficar doente

Tá querendo de novo

Já caiu no meu jogo

Não pode se queimar? Então pra quê brincar com fogo?

Mas eu sou artilheiro

Eu vou virar o jogo

Eu vou partir pra cima, de virada é mais gostoso

Eu ganho essa parada

Pode ficar ligada

Vai ver que eu sou zika

Ah... cê acredita?

Quando eu desço é igual terremoto

Rebolo, não paro, eu toco o terror

Quando ela desce é igual terremoto

Ela senta e não para, ela toca o terror

Eu desço, não paro, rebolo, eu toco o terror

E ela desce, não para, rebola, toca o terror

Eu desço, não paro, rebolo, eu toco o terror

E ela desce, não para, rebola, toca o terror

Chama, fio...

-Anitta? -Hm?

Quando você rebola é tipo como?

Tipo terremoto

Quem diria?

Cê acredita?
