Lyrics
Il vuoto e poi
ti svegli e c'
un mondo intero
intorno a te Ti hanno iscritto
a un gioco grande
se non comprendi
se fai domande
Chi ti risponde
ti dice: presto
quando sarai grande
allora saprai tutto…
Saprai perch, saprai perch
quando sarai grande
saprai perch…
E allora osservi
gli altri giocare
un gioco strano
devi imparare,
Devi stare zitto
solo ascoltare
devi leggere pi libri
che puoi, devi studiare,
E' tutto scritto
catalogato
ogni segreto
ogni peccato
Saprai perch, saprai perch
quando sarai grande
saprai perch…
Lyrics translation
The void and then
you wake up and there
a whole world
around you have been enrolled
a great game
if you do not understand
if you ask questions
Who answers you
he tells you: soon
when you grow up
then you'll know everything…
You'll know why, you'll know why
when you grow up
you'll know why…
And then watch
others play
a strange game
you have to learn,
You need to shut up.
just listen
you have to read more books
that you can, you have to study,
It's all written down.
catalogued
every secret
every sin
You'll know why, you'll know why
when you grow up
you'll know why…
