Matador De Passarinho
"Matador de Passarinho" (Portuguese for "''Bird Killer''") is a song written, composed and performed by the Brazilian musician Rogério Skylab, and originally included on his second studio album, ''Skylab'', from 1999. In an interview Skylab explained that the song is a "perversion" of "Passaredo", a composition by Francis Hime and Chico Buarque.
