Lyrics

Femminile profumata elegante dolce bella e generosa
estroversa un po' truccata ottimista intelligente e misteriosa
la donna mia
Mentre il tempo passava sulla nostra età
mentre mille canzoni finivano già
mentre il sole d’autunno pigro si svegliava
fra me e te un mattino qualcosa nasceva
c’era aria di festa e fra i colori anche il blu
forse c’era dell’altro ma c’eri anche tu le auto piene di gente che rideva
e le cose cattive solo nei films che si vedeva
scusa mary scusa mary
ma eravamo innamorati più che mai
c’era il dopoguerra e c’era anche il boom
mentre il tempo passava sulla nostra età
c’era praga la cia la nato il vietnam
c’era un negro di nome martin che hanno ammazzato
tutto questo però ce lo hanno raccontato
venne il sessant’otto e poi le barricate
mentre sempre l’autunno era più caldo dell’estate
e mentre i beatles si sciolgono dopo let it be in Grecia Papadopulos balla il sirtaki
scusa mary scusa mary
ma eravamo innamorati più che mai
domenica senza macchina per l’austerità
mentre il tempo passava sulla nostra età
Louis Armstrong e Neruda non ci sono più
c’era anche dell’altro ma soprattutto tu e mentre la forestale tenta il golpe alla rai
c’era stato un concerto all’isola di Wight
scusa mary scusa mary
ma che fortuna innamorarsi come noi

Lyrics translation

Feminine fragrant elegant sweet beautiful and generous
extrovert a little clever and mysterious optimistic makeup
my woman
As time passed on our age
while a thousand songs were already ending
as the lazy autumn sun awoke
between you and me one morning something was born
there was a festive atmosphere and among the colors also the Blue
maybe there was something else, but there were cars full of people laughing.
and the bad things only in the films you saw
sorry mary sorry mary
but we were in love more than ever
there was the post-war and there was the boom
as time passed on our age
there was Prague the cia nato vietnam
there was a nigger named martin who was killed.
but they told us all this
sixty-eight came and then the barricades
while Always Autumn was warmer than summer
and as the beatles disband after Let It Be in Greece Papadopulos dances the sirtaki
sorry mary sorry mary
but we were in love more than ever
Sunday without austerity machine
as time passed on our age
Louis Armstrong and Neruda are gone
there was also something else but especially you and while the forest tries the coup to the rai
there was a concert on the Isle Of Wight
sorry mary sorry mary
but what luck to fall in love like us
