Sputate Al Re - Articolo 31

Un re che amava tanto i vestiti nuovi

Che spendeva in essi tutto quello che aveva

Possedeva un abito diverso per ogni ora della giornata

Niente importava per lui eccetto i suoi vestiti

Eppure non trovava soddisfazione

Il sarto era sullЂ™orlo della disperazione

Disse al re di aver inventato un nuovo tessuto

Che cambiava colore e forma ad ogni momento

Ma rivelava anche coloro che erano

Stolti ignoranti e stupidi

Allora il tessuto sarebbe stato invisibile

E pensate anche solo per un momento che i suoi

Sudditi volessero rischiare la testa accennando alla sua nudit

Ђ¦Finch un bambino disse mentre il re passava in processione:

ЂњHey guardate il re nudoЂќЂ¦ i nostri eroi si trovarono nel presedei se

Ђ¦.dei forseЂ¦e dei perІЂ¦

Ђ¦se se se

se non ci fossero le Alpi se fossimo alti e meno calvi

se non avessimo la convinzione di essere scaltri e meglio

degli altri se il governo fosse a Palermo e non a Roma

se il Vaticano fosse a Milano e dЂ™estate mancasse

acqua a Verona se sapessimo fare i seri se la domenica segna

Vieri se ci accorgessimo che in Europa siamo noi quelli pi№ neri

Se ne parlassero i telegiornali se per la legge siamo uguali

Se il Presidente corregge la legge se siamo un gregge di

Criminali se non ci fosse la tv chi ce lo direbbe cosa pensare

CЂ™era una storia in mezzo ai libri studiati la mia generazione

Non sa qual perІ piaceva ai miei antenati e certo

Piace tanto anche a meЂ¦

Sputate al re (3 volte) il re nudo

Ђ¦forse lЂ™economia in pericolo forse unЂ™ interludio

forse sarІ un disoccupato ma con un titolo di studio

forse il secolo scorso eravamo un popolo di artisti e

menti brillanti forse tra tanti emigranti anche arroganti

e ignoranti esportavamo la moda e i sentimenti il bel

canto la pasta e i condimenti anche la mafia e le tangenti

forse ci chiamavano viaggiatori leggendari forse scappavamo

dalla fame ed eramavo extracomunitari forse un ciccione

alla tv sta lobotizzando il mio paese cЂ™era una storia in

mezzo ai libri studiati la mia generazione non sa qual

perІ piaceva ai miei antenati quindi andr bene pure per me

sputate al re (3 volte) il re nudo

Ђ¦ perІ qui il vino buono perІ mio padre un onestЂ™uomo

perІ ce chi non crede al promo del re sul trono che

ci da il condono perІ guarda che mare perІ guarda che

luna guarda che barche a Porto Cervo e quelle che

arrivano a Lampedusa la mano tese perІ la porta

chiusa perІ la pizza risorta ma avremo una fetta di torta

dagli U.S.A a partita chiusa il dollaro deleterio perІ Totti Ђњer mejoЂќ

si concede lo spazio aereo perІ a noi intanto ci ammazza

lЂ™euro perІ perІ quella tv conosco sempre pi№ gente

che la spegneЂ¦ cЂ™era una storia in mezzo ai libri

studiati la mia generazione sapr presto qual che

piaceva tanto ai miei antenati e piace tanto tanto anche

a meЂ¦ sputate al re (3 volte) il re nudo

A king who loved new clothes so much

That he spent everything he had on them

He owned a different suit for each hour of the day

Nothing mattered to him except his clothes

Yet he found no satisfaction

The tailor was on the verge of despair

He told the king that he had invented a new fabric

Which changed color and shape at every moment

But he also revealed who they were

Fools ignorant and stupid

Then the fabric would have been invisible

And just think for a moment that his

Sudditi wanted to risk their heads by hinting at her nakedness

Ђ¦Finch a child said as the king passed in procession:

"Hey look at the naked king" our heroes found themselves in the presedei se

Ђ¦.of perhapsЂ¦and of howeverІЂ¦

Ђ¦if if if

if there were no Alps if we were tall and less bald

if we did not have the conviction of being shrewd it is better

of the others if the government were in Palermo and not in Rome

if the Vatican were in Milan and were missing in the summer

water in Verona if we knew how to be serious if Sunday scores

Vieri if we realized that in Europe we are the black ones

If the news were to talk about it if we are the same for the law

If the President corrects the law if we are a flock of

Criminals if there was no TV who would tell us what to think

There was a story among the books my generation studied

He doesn't know which one my ancestors liked, and sure

I like it so much tooЂ¦

Spit the naked king at the king (3 times)

"Maybe the economy is in danger, maybe an interlude."

maybe I will be unemployed but with a degree

perhaps the last century we were a people of artists and

brilliant minds perhaps among many even arrogant emigrants

and ignorant we exported fashion and sentiments the beautiful

I sing the pasta and the condiments also the mafia and the bribes

maybe they called us legendary travelers, maybe we ran away

from hunger and I was immigrants, perhaps a fat guy

on TV is lobotizing my country there was a story in

in the midst of the books studied, my generation does not know which one

but my ancestors liked it so it will be fine for me too

Spit the naked king at the king (3 times)

But here is the good wine for my father an honest man

but who does not believe in the promotion of the king on the throne that

he gives us the pardon but look at the sea but look at that

moon looks at that boats in Porto Cervo and those that

they arrive in Lampedusa the hand stretched out for the door

closed, however, the risen pizza but we will have a slice of cake

from the U.S.A with the game closed the deleterious dollar per Totti Ђњer mejoЂќ

he allows himself the airspace but in the meantime he kills us

the euro, however, I know more and more people on that TV

that put it outЂ¦ there was a story among the books

studied my generation will soon know what

my ancestors liked it very much and they like it very much too

to meЂ¦ spit the naked king to the king (3 times)
