davek is an unknown quantity at this point
Are the super administrators letting us common Nelly proles down? These lyrical questions become frustrating because her lyrics, like her music, are special and therefore clarification is sought. For my part, the chorus of One Trick Pony is mystifying but too powerful to ignore. Help please.

Also, some of the Portuguese slang, especially in For?a, the best goddam song on the best goddam album I've heard in over 40 years of rock, pop, rap, crap, you name it. (I know it dates me kids but Nelly's reach cuts a wide swath of mensa music buffs)

Yeah I get the title- Kick Ass!- I just named a classic rock climb after it. But the Portuguese lyric has remained unexplained to me after fruitless hours surfing. What (or where) the hell is it?
The complete translation of the chorus would be swell. Pode Parar? Pode matar?

That girl is something else. Happy Nelly-ing gang. For?a!
