lyrics
(waves, a vendor's bell) (ê, ê!) You kissed me by the kiosk light Stole one flip-flop in your flight One foot burning on the sand Is this romance or reprimand? (ai, ai, ai) The left one waits beside my door (beside my door) Like me — half dressed and wanting more Cadê meu chinelo? Where'd you go? Cadê meu chinelo? I gotta know Cadê meu chinelo? Keep it, fine — But bring the foot that stood by mine (cadê, cadê?) She left her sunglasses behind A trade? A trap? I don't mind Vovó laughed: 'She'll bring it back — A girl who steals leaves a track' (não ligo, não) Cadê meu chinelo? Where'd you go? Cadê meu chinelo? I gotta know Cadê meu chinelo? Keep it, fine — But bring the foot that stood by mine You can't run far in only one (only one) So walk back slow when day is done Cadê meu chinelo? Where'd you go? Cadê meu chinelo? I gotta know Cadê meu chinelo? Keep it, fine — But bring the foot that stood by mine (ê, ê!) Cadê meu chinelo... (a flip-flop slaps the pavement, getting closer)
