Real in Rio

All the birds of a feather
Do what they love most of all
We are the best at rhythm and laughter
That's why we love Carnaval

All so clear, we can sing to
Sun, the beaches, they call
Dance to the music, passion and love
Show us the best you can do

Everyone here is on fire
Get up and join in the fun
Dance with a stranger, romance and danger
Magic could happen for real in Rio

All by itself, you can't see it coming
You can't find it anywhere else
It's real in Rio, know something else
You can feel it happen
You can feel it all by yourself

All the birds of a feather
Do what we love most of all
Moon and the stars, sun and guitars
That's why we love Carnaval

Loving our life in the jungle
Everything's wild and free
Never alone 'cause this is our home
Magic can happen for real in Rio

All by itself, you can't see it coming
You can't find it anywhere else

I'm the Capoeira king-a, king-a, king-a, king-a, king-a
Birds like me 'cause I'm a hot wing-a
There's your hot-a wing-a (Caw!)

Here, everybody loves samba (I like the samba)
Rhythm you feel in your heart (I'm the samba master)
Beauty and love, what more could you want?
Everything can be for real in Rio

Here's something else
You just feel it happening
You won't find it anywhere else
