Lyrics

La Domenica profuma,
di sugo e maccheroni.
Domestico il sapore del
centro citt,
di quelle strade strette,
allegre e misteriose.
Dove posso passeggiando
fare spallucce
alla faccia tua che mai,
capir.
Il mio Amore,
che sa d’incenso e Chiesa,
e diavolo ed acqua santa
e storia.
E di quella polvere di strada che
s’alza quando passa una corriera,
e torna a terra:
nebbia di borgata
scoprendo mura antiche.
Cinema e campagna
e Te,
bambina innamorata.
Mi salti al cuore
e non ti senti illusa.
E nell’incoscienza dei tuoi anni giusti
mi regali una giornata afosa,
d’Amore e sole.
E come in altalena
mi innamoro
mentre mangi
una gomma americana
Mentre mangi
una gomma americana.

Lyrics translation

Sunday smells,
sauce and macaroni.
Home the taste of
city center,
of those narrow streets,
cheerful and mysterious.
Where can I stroll
making shoulder straps
to your face than ever,
understand.
My love,
that tastes of incense and Church,
and devil and holy water
and history.
And that street dust that
gets up when a courier passes,
and return to Earth:
fog of borgata
discovering ancient walls.
Cinema and countryside
and you,
little girl in love.
Jump to my heart
and you don't feel deluded.
And in the unconsciousness of your righteous years
give me a sultry day,
love and sun.
And how to swing
I fall in love
while you eat
an American rubber
While you eat
an American gum.
