Yesterday night
There was me at the office
Under a tiny light
That I just couldn't notice...

Whaat?

Everybody
Well, they had just gone
To some kind of party
And at the office... no one!

I called to my granny
She said, my dear sun
Even I, with my 80's,
Am now jumping like Jackson!

I couldn't believe
So I called to my boss
He said, Toni, por amor de Deus
Vem dançar com a Amadeus!

Dancing with Amadeus, Dancing with Amadeus
You may jump like Jackson in the terrace of Amadeus
Dancing with Amadeus, Dancing with Amadeus
Até os turistas já não querem ver mais museus!

Dancing with Amadeus, Dancing with Amadeus
The landscape is perfect to invite your girlfriend
Dancing with Amadeus, Dancing with Amadeus
Get out of the rut and bring your new haircut!

Do you like my new haircut?

---

Come to the terrace
Dance some house, some samba
If you are too tired
We also have a sofa!

Invite your neighbors
Tell it to your mates
Bring the m'am from the coffee
Watch the moves she creates!

Dancing with Amadeus, Dancing with Amadeus
The greatest party here in Lisbon city!
Dancing with Amadeus, Dancing with Amadeus
People on Ibiza will be jealous!

The most common words of Portuguese profanity, the ones universally used in the different dialects and variants of Portuguese, originated from Latin radicals, as well from other Indo-European sources and are usually cognate with peninsular Spanish profanity.^{[citation needed]} There are also Portuguese curse words that originated from South American Amerindian or West and Central African languages; these are found in other Portuguese speaking countries than Portugal, like Brazil, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, São Tomé and Príncipe, Angola or Mozambique even though some of these non-Indo-European-originated ones made it to enter the peninsular Portuguese.

In the case of Brazil, several neologistic curse words^[which?] were borrowed not only from Amerindian or African languages but also from Italian, German or French, due to the Italian and Central-European immigration to Brazil in the late 19th century and due to the fact French used to be a lingua franca for intellectual Brazilians and Brazilian international diplomacy in the past.

Portuguese profanity, just like in any other Western language, is much marked by its sexist character.^{[citation needed]} Words that refer to male homosexuality and female sexuality in general, and even the ones referred to the female genitalia, are the ones mostly adopted as inflammatory words while the ones that refer to heterosexual male sexuality are used as positive adjectivations. Scatological terms are used either with negative and positive meaning, depending on the context in which they are used.

Profanities in Portuguese are referred as profanidades, chulice, termos chulos, baixo calão, termos de baixo calão, linguagem de baixo calão, obscenidades, vulgaridades. Palavrão is a coarse word, and dizer/falar palavrões is to use obscene language. Xingar/Praguejar is to swear, to curse. Insulto/Xingamento/Impropério coarse or insulting word.
