L'Uomo Che Inventò Il Fuoco : traduction de Italien vers Anglais
Once upon a time there was an Australopithecus
Who carried with him
An invention that in the future
Would echo
And he was there at the entrance
Of the disco
Waiting for some
Beautiful Australopithecus
She with the cigarette
Tightly held in her hand
With big, big eyes
Shaped like a catamaran
Could you light it for me?
Said the young girl
Only if you stay until
Tomorrow morning
The lighter sunsets
Marked the beginning of the night
Which he spent all climbing
Mountains of broken socks
The young girl was a repeat offender
Dancing with a drink in her hand
Thinking I'm not twenty yet
And I still can't say I love you
I'm not twenty yet
And I still can't say I love you
But among the friends
Of the Australopithecus
There was a crooked little man
With a sad, squinting look
If only I understood
The secret behind fire
Maybe I could keep
The world under yoke
But the Australopithecus
Doesn't want to know
He's irrational
Just like pi
The fire remains his
It's not a trade good
But where words can't reach
Flint will
The lighter sunsets
Marked the beginning of the night
He convinced him with kicks
He convinced him with blows
The bent Australopithecus
Was picking up his teeth with his hand
And thinking I'm not twenty yet
And I'll never be able to say I love you again
I'm not twenty yet
And I'll never be able to say I love you again
Once upon a time there was an Australopithecus
The bruises had made him crippled and blind
And he swore revenge, the Australopithecus
From the bottom of his cold and tiny cave
But then here are steps someone is approaching
Lady's pace but young girl's scent
It took me months and months to find you
And tell you that for you I can even quit smoking
The young girl was a repeat offender
Dancing with a drink in her hand
Thinking I'm not twenty yet
And I still can't say I love you
I'm not twenty yet
And I still can't say I love you
