The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Venderò" by Luca Barbarossa.

Lyrics

Vendero' le mie scarpe nuove
Ad un vecchio manichino
Per vedere se si muove
Se sta fermo
O se mi segue nel cammino.
Vendero' il mio diploma
Ai maestri del progresso
Per costruire un nuovo automa
Che dia a loro piu' ricchezza
E a me il successo.
Ai signori mercanti d’arte
Vendero' la mia pazzia
Mi terranno un po' in disparte
Chi e' normale
Non ha molta fantasia.
Raffaele e' contento non ha fatto il soldato
Ma ha girato e conosce la gente
E mi dice: stai attento che resti fuori dal gioco
Se non hai niente da offrire al mercato.
Vendero' la mia sconfitta
A chi ha bisogno
Di sentirsi forte
E come un quadro che sta in soffitta
Gli parlero' della mia cattiva sorte.
Raffaele e' contento non si e' mai laureato
Ma ha studiato e guarisce la gente
E mi dice: stai attento che ti fanno fuori dal gioco
Se non hai niente da offrire al mercato.
Vendero' la mia rabbia
A tutta quella brava gente
Che vorrebbe vedermi in gabbia
E forse allora
Mi troverebbe divertente.

Lyrics translation

I'll sell my new shoes.
To an old dummy
To see if it moves
If he stands still
Or if you follow me on my way.
I'll sell my diploma.
To the Masters of progress
To build a new automaton
Give them more wealth
And to me success.
To the art merchants
I'll sell my madness
They'll keep me on the sidelines for a while.
Who's normal?
He doesn't have much imagination.
Raphael's happy he didn't make a soldier.
But he's turned around and he knows people
And he tells me: be careful that you stay out of the game
If you have nothing to offer the market.
I'll sell my loss.
To those in need
To feel strong
And like a picture in the attic
I'll tell him about my bad luck.
Raffaele's happy he never graduated.
But he studied and heals people
And he tells me: be careful that they make you out of the game
If you have nothing to offer the market.
I'll sell my anger
To all those good people
Who would like to see me in a cage
And maybe then
He'd find me funny.
