89 year old Elza Soares, 69 years into her career, covering Gonzaguinha’s 1972 song.To whom would you send these lyrics?

You should notice that there's no more stewAnd say that you're not worriedYou should fight for the market's leftoversAnd say that you feel rewarded

You should always put on an air of happinessAnd say everything has improvedYou should pray for the boss's well-beingAnd forget that you're unemployed

You deserve it, You deserve itEverything's fine, everything's coolBeer, samba, and tomorrow, Joe,If they put an end to your Carnival

You should learn to bow your headAnd always say thank you very muchThose are words they still let you sayFor being such a well-disciplined man

You must act only for the good of the nationDoing whatever you're ordered to doTo earn a new car at Judgment DayAnd a diploma for good behavior

You deserve it, You deserve itEverything's fine, everything's coolBeer, samba, and tomorrow, Joe,If they put an end to your Carnival
