Jabu - Chacal
experimental Brazilian art rock with vanguarda paulista and progressive rock influences, electric guitar with angular riffs and light distortion, melodic bass with syncopated counterlines, dry drum kit with asymmetrical grooves and offbeat snare accents, layered percussion with handclaps shakers agogo and small drums, bright jazz inflected piano chords, analog synth stabs and soft noise swells, occasional saxophone or flute lines, tight vocal ensemble with spoken singing lead, rhythmic speech like phrasing, ironic detached tone in a mid to high register, close miked vocals with gentle saturation, mostly dry room reverb with sudden big hits on climaxes, dynamic swells and abrupt breaks, tempo shifts and odd meters, playful call and response backing vocals, dissonant cluster harmonies resolving into brief consonance, unison group shouts on refrains, subtle tape hiss and room ambience, creative stereo panning and short echo throws on selected words

Lyrics
intro
Instrumental interlude
jabuticaba jabuti jaburu jabuco
que é a corruptéla de joaquim nabuco
tudo jabuca todos jabam ou jabotam
ainda mais quando estão com vontade
de jabutir ou jaburar
Bridge
quampérius jogava com jadir na zaga
do jabaquara já vai jaca
zagarreava jabaculejava zarababava
no jaleco do avante vavá
Bridge
Pre Chorus
e como era javali talvez jamantão
não dava colher pra nenhum vadio
nenhum valente nenhum valete
nem vascaíno quampa era jabu
Bridge
Chorus
jamaicano jamais violento
e sempre jabu porque uma vez jabu
sempre jabu jabu jaburu jaboatão
lalando samba canção......
