La fine di Gaia [English translation]

Poor Gaia 1

even the Maya want to reap your bounty.

even the housewife knows it and stammers with fear

She deciphers an understory of codes, but 2012

has no effect, except in cinematography.

Upright men who are reptile men

with the pupils of snakes

more badges than sergeants

they want to skin you, Gaia

they want to mute you, Gaia

the bomb has now risen to the surface and will explode.

Networks of reptilians, comings and goings of aliens

airships of poison, all looking for shelter but...

The end of Gaia will not arrive

people are mistaken

after all, no one knows.

It's a flash in the pan

in the Maya’s and Cinecittà’s 2 faces!

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

Even E.T. is here, oh mama what a sentence!

He's a pervert! He kidnapped Gaia to impregnate her

with alien followers that skin bunnies and exhibit them on TV, pretending they’re extraterrestrial fetuses.

There are those who want to smoke3 Gaia with fumes spread from the air 4

from a plane that cages her like Asinara 5

They say that Gaia snorts,

even Brian Griffin 6 barks!

It's clear, like Biffy, that Gaia is not happy 7

Between Saint John, Nostradamus and the millennium bug

on her coffin, anyone would put a tag.

But, the end of Gaia will not arrive

people are mistaken

after all, no one knows.

It's a flash in the pan

in the Maya’s and Cinecittà’s faces!

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

8[a Man on his cell phone]

Confirmed ... it's not ending ...

it's not ending ...it's not ending ...

I was sure...I've said it ...

I've always said it....always...

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

Neither from Godzilla’s footsteps nor from Biblical passages...9

Gaia will survive

these fucking asteroids that have never crushed

even a butterfly.

You’re the one treating Gaia like an army recruit.

You love petroleum, but the bay isn’t a boiler.

Your headsman’s ax hardly thins the air in the Himalayas!

Gaia will save herself! Who will save Private Ryan?

It’s not Martians, but you that must be warded off.

It’s not Martians, but you that must be warded off and you’ll see...

The end of Gaia will not arrive

people are mistaken

after all, no one knows.

It's a flash in the pan

in the Maya’s and Cinecittà’s faces!

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

The end of Gaia will not arrive!

2012, not even a downpour!

Oh Oh

I'm going home

[At this point, there is a skit in the album version, linking this song to the next one]

8Catastrophists

Gloomy men

The end of Gaia will not arrive

and we will still be here.
