Scendi Giù [English translation]

An inmate

Is like a child you must raise

Until they lower their defying gaze for good

And of a child

Who doesn't recognize their father

We'll make a dead man that can't recognize the murderer

The prison guards, they go home

Slowly

They go home

To their children sitting on the couch

Where on earth might

The monsters they were in the cell be?

They're locked up in a closet on a hanger

Come down, baby, come down

Come down, baby, come down

Gimme one last kiss, for I won't be coming back

In the morning

The first jailer

Found a stray dog

Outside his front door

And while he was being mauled by the beast

He was surprised to find out that it had my face

In the afternoon, the second hitter, the roughest,

Was killed by a swamp migratory bird

And while he was drowning, screaming, in the river

He only recognized me from the marks the blows left on my feathers

Come down, baby, come down

Come down, baby, come down

Gimme one last kiss, for I won't be coming back

Come down, baby, come down

Come down, baby, come down

Gimme one last kiss, for I won't be coming back

In the evening

The criminal court judge

Went to confession

To wipe his ass

He died of a stroke

During the prayer

Hearing my voice that cried absolution

At night

I went outside your place

And I yelled loudly:

"My love, I'm sorry!"

But you didn't open the door

Because something went wrong

And I understood that a dead man's apology isn't worth anything

Come down, baby, come down

Come down, baby, come down

Gimme one last kiss, for I won't be coming back

Come down, baby, come down

Come down, baby, come down

Gimme one last kiss, for I won't be coming back
