Cette chanson évoque l'abondance de café au Brésil, un pays où les grains de café poussent en grande quantité. Les habitants doivent trouver des moyens de respecter les quotas de vente, ce qui rend certaines boissons, comme les sodas aux cerises, difficiles à obtenir. De plus, il est amusant de noter qu'une fille de politicien a été sanctionnée pour avoir osé boire de l'eau, illustrant de manière humoristique les manies et les règles locales liées à cette boisson emblématique. Au fond, cette œuvre met en lumière la culture du café au Brésil, qui semble régir bien des aspects de la vie quotidienne.
