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 and 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 (Itself)

You can't see it coming

You can't find it anywhere else (Anywhere else)

It's real in Rio

Know something else (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, strumming 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 (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 (Something else)

You just feel it happening

You won't find it anywhere else
