lyrics

Siamo stati mille volte osservati da dottori specialisti
Ci hanno detto solo che le funzioni, quali che siano, sono stabili
Ci siamo smarriti per le strade tra segnali e semafori
Persi come piante di alloro in campi di spaventapasseri

E poi
La soluzione era così facile
Essere se stessi
Che prima o poi arriva il principe azzurro
Con una soluzione in mano
E nei pantaloni

Ci si siamo sconvolti per celare lo squallore della sobrietà
Dei parenti e degli amici persi in qualche sterile polemica
Le ragazze o i ragazzi sembravano così abili a manovrare alibi
Per poterci consigliare il nemico sbagliato o il falso amico appropriato

E poi
Il chiarore della sera
Aveva fatto luce
E dato ragione al nostro sgomento
Ma prima di pestare altre mine
Ci hanno fatti fuori
Mettendoci cartelli addosso

Figli di un errore e di un litigio
Con un dio noioso come un lento
Semi privi di luce e di una voglia
Stelle condensate su vetrine
Piene di cadaveri di plastica
Con la vostra espressione addosso
Non vi preoccupate che volendo
Ci entrerete comunque in paradiso

GP: Is that your answer to my question?
M2: No, of course not. That is just illustrative. The answer to your question is FIVE TONS OF FLAX!
