Catupiry (Portuguese pronunciation: [katupiˈɾi]) is one of the most popular "requeijão" (creamy cheese) brands in Brazil. It was developed by the Italian immigrant Mario Silvestrini in the state of Minas Gerais in 1911. The name derives from the Tupi word meaning "excellent".
Catupiry is a soft, mild-tasting cheese that can be spread over toasts, crackers and bread buns or used in cooking. Because of its low level of acidity, catupiry has become an ingredient in various dishes.
The expression com catupiry (with catupiry) refers to foods where catupiry or an imitation is an ingredient, or a filling, such as pizzas, coxinhas or pães-de-queijo. As a kind of requeijão, much as any other soft-tasting white cheese, it is also eaten as a dessert combined with guava paste, what is called romeu-e-julieta.
I'm used to opening my own doors and splitting the checks
He introduced me, was always just a friend
I bought a new dress, he never noticed
Always falling for these bad boys, such a challenge
I'm getting tired of cleaning up after them
I think I'm ready to be a woman
Oh love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
You were such a surprise, an unexpected gift
Said I was pretty and I believed it
Not really used to all this attention
Told myself I don't deserve you and this is just a phase
Could I get used to being loved the right way?
I wanna argue but there is nothing to say
Oh love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
Ready for it
Oh love, I think I'm ready
?Cause you send me flowers when there's no occasion
Yeah, we talk for hours, you still wanna listen
Won't hold it against me if I just need you to hold me tonight
My mother always told me that you'd show up one day
So scared to feel this way
But love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
Ready for it
Oh love, I think I'm ready, ready for it
Ready for it
