Geni is a character created by Chico Buarque in the song “Geni e o Zepelim” of the album “Opera do Malandro”. This song tells the story of Genival and Geni. Two persons in one. Genival by day, and Geni by night. One day the city where Geni lives, needs her help and his life changes (but returns to normal, moments later). This song has a politic interpretation, because this year, Brazil was in military regime.
Below, the song composed by Chico Buarque:
Of mangrove and pier
She has already dated
His body belongs to strangers
To blinds and retiring
She is whoever has nothing
She is this way since she was a child
In the garage, in the snack bar,
Behind the pool, in the
She is queen of prison
Of crazy and disgusting people
Of the children of boarding school
And she also goes slowly
With oldies with no health
And the widows sexless
She is kindness
And because of this, the city
Repeats all over again:
Throw stones at Geni!
Throw stones at Geni!
She is made to spank
She is good to spit
She gives herself to everyone
Damn Geni!
One day, arose shiny
Behind the clouds, floating
A big Zepelim
Stopped on buildings
Open two thousands holes
With two thousands cannons
The scared city
Was paralyzed
Read to be jelly
But, on the bigger Zepelim
Down the captain
Saying: I changed idea!
When I see this city
Many horror and wrong
I decide explode everything
But, I can’t prevent the drama
If that lovely lady
This night serve me
But can not be Geni
She is made for catch
She is good for spit
She make sexy with everyone
Damn Geni!
But of fact, she was
So poor and simple
Enchanter the foreign
The gallant fighter
So powerful and feared
She was, prison
But the lady
And that was a secret her
Also have his wills
And to sleep with so high man
Smelling shine and copper
She prefer love with animals
To hear so heresy
The city in group
Was kissed his hand
The mayor of knees in ground
The priest with red eyes
And the banker with one million:
Go to her, go Geni!
Go to her, go Geni!
You can save us!
You make sexy with everyone!
Blessed Geni!
Was so many solicitations
So true and sentimental
That she change idea
And that intense night
She go to captain
Like torture
He did so much dirt
All night
Until be tired
And before dawn
He’s gone in cold cloud
With her silver zepelim
In sigh of relief
She turn around
And attempted smile
But soon dawned day
And the city sing
Don’t let she sleep
Throw stones at Geni!
Throw stones at Geni!
She is made to spank
She is good to spit
She gives herself to everyone
Damn Geni!
