Bartali
Bartali
As much as a bunch of flowers can be desirable
and the rustle of the paper wrapping too,
a beer is way more tempting
in this day of sticky natural rubber.
I am sitting on a bollard
minding my own business.
Between a motorcycle1 and the next there's a silence
I can't describe.
Oh, how far I got in my sandals
how far did Bartali2 get?
That nose, as sad as a steep slope,
those happy eyes of an Italian on a day trip.
And the French respect us,
and they are still pretty pissed about it
and you tell me: we have to go to the cinema.
Well, you go to the cinema, off you go.
A whole bunch of things
makes me stay here.
Yes, women are surly sometimes
or maybe they just need to pee.
And this day fades in orange
and fills with indistinct memories.
I like to stay here along this county road,
covered in dust, if you want to go, go.
Go, while I stay here waiting for Bartali,
pacing up and down in my sandals.
It will come round the bend
that sad nose of a happy Italian.
Between pissed Frenchmen
and fluttering newspapers
there's some wind, the countryside is barking,
there's a moon deep down in the blue.
Between pissed Frenchmen
and fluttering newspapers
and you tell me: we have to go to the cinema.
Well, you go to the cinema, off you go.

Che bellissimo lavoro, Matilde, ti ammiro!
La lingua che padroneggio sarebbe il tedesco, ma non credo che ce la faccia...

Grazie! E' una delle mie canzoni preferite. Abbaia la campagna: meravigliosa immagine.
