Chico Buarque (full name: Francisco Buarque de Hollanda; born June 19, 1944 in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian singer, composer, dramatist and writer. He is best known for his music, which often comments on Brazil's social, economic and cultural reality. Chico came from a both intellectual and privileged family background: his father Sérgio Buarque de Hollanda was a well-known historian and sociologist, and the first name of his lexicographer uncle Aurélio Buarque de Hollanda is as strongly associated with Brazilian Portuguese dictionaries as the name Webster is with American ones. A studious child with a precocious interest in music and writing, Chico was heavily impressed by bossa nova, and specifically, by the work of Joo Gilberto. Chico made his public debut as musician and composer in 1964, rapidly building his reputation at music festivals and television variety shows.

Chico Buarque
(Chico Buarque, 1977)
Mulher
Voc vai gostar
T levando uns amigos pra conversar
Eles vo com uma fome que nem me contem
Eles vo com uma sede de anteontem
Salta cerveja estupidamente gelada prum batalho
E vamos botar gua no feijo
Mulher
No v se afobar
No tem que pr a mesa, nem d lugar
Ponha os pratos no cho, e o cho t posto
E prepare as lingias pro tiragosto
Uca, acar, cumbuca de gelo, limo
E vamos botar gua no feijo
Mulher
Voc vai fritar
Um monto de torresmo pra acompanhar
Arroz branco, farofa e a malagueta
A laranja-bahia ou da seleta
Joga o paio, carne seca, toucinho no caldeiro
E vamos botar gua no feijo
Mulher
Depois de salgar
Faa um bom refogado, que pra engrossar
Aproveite a gordura da frigideira
Pra melhor temperar a couve mineira
Diz que t dura, pendura a fatura no nosso irmo
E vamos botar gua no feijo
