Carnival - Roberto Vecchioni

Si diventa grandi

Sulla propria pelle

Sulle proprie palle e su poche stelle

Si diventa grandi

E niente fa più male al cuore

E se provi a cercare

Le tue parole

Non fanno nostalgia

Come quello che è stato

O non è stato

Che resta e che va via

E ci trucchiamo per Carnival

E ci vestiamo da Carnival

E ci trucchiamo da Carnival

Si diventa grandi

A guardarle il culo

Si diventa vecchi a sentirsi solo

E col passare del tempo

Non t’importa nemmeno

Chi le bacia gli occhi chi le tocca il seno

Senza di lei soltanto

Un anno prima

Credevi di morire

E all’improvviso

Non ne vale più la pena

Nemmeno di capire

E ci trucchiamo per Carnival

E ci vestiamo da Carnival

E ci trucchiamo da Carnival

Si diventa vecchi

Come un vecchio indiano

E di finge forte e si canta piano

Non c'è nessun ricordo

A cui ti puoi impiccare

Perchè nessun ricordo ormai ti fa più male

Tutte le idee tutti gli amori tuoi di prima

Finiti sulla luna

Col tempo la sua faccia

E la sua pelle scura

Te le ricordi appena

E ci trucchiamo per Carnival

E ci vestiamo da Carnival

E ci trucchiamo da Carnival

Finché val

You grow up

On your own skin

On their balls and on a few stars

You grow up

And nothing hurts the heart anymore

And if you try to search

Your words

They are not homesick

Like what it was

Or it wasn't

What remains and goes away

And we do our makeup for Carnival

And we dress up as Carnival

And we put on Carnival makeup

You grow up

To look at her ass

You get old to feel alone

And as time goes by

You don't even care

Who kisses her eyes, who touches her breast

Without her alone

A year earlier

You thought you were dying

And suddenly

It's not worth it anymore

Not even to understand

And we do our makeup for Carnival

And we dress up as Carnival

And we put on Carnival makeup

You get old

Like an old Indian

And pretend loudly and sing softly

There is no memory

You can hang yourself on

Because no memory now hurts you anymore

All ideas, all your loves from before

Ended up on the moon

Over time his face

And his dark skin

You barely remember them

And we do our makeup for Carnival

And we dress up as Carnival

And we put on Carnival makeup

As long as it is valid
