Lyrics
Straight To The Top
Straight to the top
Enough is enough
Life is too short for waiting
Straight to the top
Because enough is enough
She?ll get to where she wants to be
She?s going to make it
To the big time
She?s going to take it
To the top of her game
So bye bye waiting
And bye bye feeling all that doubt
There?s no denying
Now?s her time
Sayonara coitadinha*
Straight to the top
Enough is enough
Life is too short for waiting
Straight to the top
Because enough is enough
There?s no doubt
She?ll get to where she wants to be
She?s going to make it
To the big time
Yeah, that?s right
She?s going to take them on
And light up her name
So bye bye waiting
And bye bye feeling down and out
It?s no surprise
Now?s her time
Sayonara pobrecita**
Bye bye
Spoken (Portuguese):
Finalmente
Agora estou encima do meu jogo
Nunca mais vou arepender
Nao mais vou ficar triste
Sou uma estrela
Cheguei
Muito obrigada, Deus
Tchau tchau
English translation of spoken Portuguese:
Finally
I?m on top of my game
I?ll never regret anymore
I won?t be sad anymore
I?m a star
I?ve arrived
Thank you very much, God
Bye bye
*Portuguese for ?poor little thing?
**Spanish for ?poor little thing?
