Vivere la vita [English translation]

Living life is like riding a really big wave

The whole world stands between the cradle and the grave

You left from a small harbour

Where the thirst was deep and the bottle shorter

So now live… Because you won’t have anything better to do

till you are dead down yonder

Life is the biggest binge

When you drink everything spins around you

And you meet a lot of folk

But when it’ll be over you won’t remember naught

But don’t be afraid, somebody else will remember you

But the thing is ... Why???

Because you gave him something

Or because you had a debt and you never paid nothing?

Nothing is worse than talent that’s wasted

Nothing is sadder than a father who never embraced

Living life is like doing a big ring around

One moment you are up and then you fall down

And then you’ll be scared

Because you weren’t ready to hit the ground

In the morning you’ll be up on your legs

And you’ll be stronger than a boarhound

To hide a pain she dolled up like a tart

He put two fingers in his throat to check if he had a heart

And where society had failed love did its part

Look at them now, how light they walk without a surname

You can change your shirt if you feel like it

And if you have faith you can change your shoes

If you have new shoes you can take a new road

And if you take a new road you can change ideas

And ideas can change the world

But the world does not often change

So for a real revolution it is yourself you must rearrange

There you are on your paper boat, braving the television waves

There you are on the highway, punching a pimp till he caves

There you are in your little room, writing a song

There you are, fighting in the desert and about to desert

And now there you are on the bed, totally inert

And you blame the governments and the crisis that they don’t invert

I’m just a child but I can give you a good tool?

Get out of your house! Smile!! Breathe deeply!!!

You are alive!!!... You fool..
