Io, mammeta e tu [English translation]

I told you, from the first date

to not bring anyone with you

but you brought your brother

and your sister

and your niece...

you're never alone:

we're always three people!

and you promised me:

"Tomorrow who knows

maybe I'll come alone...

alone with mom!"

You, your mom, and I

walking on Via Toledo1

You, your mom, and I

we are walking forward

she is walking in the back

always with us

that's insane!

she comes along even to our honeymoon

to the movies, when we go dancing...

if we try to get away with it

like a cop

she comes and picks us up

Ah...Ah...Ah...

but I'm in love

l settled down

I don't react anymore

You, your mom, and I

You, your mom, and I

But San Gennaro2 granted me a favor

the other morning he hadn't got her out of bed

She had a fever

She seemed sick

I almost thought that I would've hung with you alone

but with a whisper

your mom said:

"I'll let your sister go with you!"

you, your sister, and I

We went to a café on Chiatamone street

"Do you want a dish or a cone?"

"The one that costs more!"

As a memory of this day,

at the villa, they took us a photo

She wants a ball, she wants a babà3

she doesn't want to walk

I look at her, look at the sea

I'm thinking of hitting her

Ah...Ah...Ah...

but I'm in love

l settled down

I don't react anymore

Your mom, your sister, and you

Your mom, your sister, and you

To the movies, when we go dancing...

if we try to get away with it

like a cop

She? What is she coming for?

Ah...Ah...Ah...

You put me in trouble

I'm marrying another woman

I'm not seeing you anymore

Your father, your brother and you

Your grandma, your aunt

Your father, your brother

Your grandma, your aunt and you
