Song Meaning of “Quebra Topete / Passa Lá / Bobeou… A Gente Pimba” by Trio Parada Dura
This brazilian country song tells a nostalgia story of an old friendship between two friends living apart due to different life choices.
The first lyrics of the song, Quebram Topete, talk about the first time they used to be together in a place. The place, as the lyrics suggest, could mean a bar and also a place of joy and celebration. Even if most of the time they spent in the bar was spent talking about old memories, it was a place where the two friends could still feel the connection that brought them together.
The second part, Passa Lá, speaks of a habit they had where one of them would often pass by the other’s house and stay for a while, able to enjoy the comfort and calm of a familiar place. Even if things were different since they had gone their separate ways, the house remained a refuge for both, where they could still share a moment of relaxed joy and reminders of the carefree times they used to share.
The next lyrics of the song, Bobeou… A Gente Pimba, reflect on how the two friends would have their own ways of calming themselves and coping with the distance between them. They would both use their own words and smiles to pass on the joy and silly moments that used to remind them of their friendship.
