Lyrics

Là dove finisce il fiume comincia il film:
La storia tremenda di un elettrotecnico che seppe inventare la pila
Non pochi ci riuscirono, ma fu lui che la inventò
Quattro giorni dopo scoprirono la luce elettrica
Fu un grosso errore per l’elettrotecnico
Ma lui volle insistere e si fece male
Si fece male pensando a lei
Lei che veniva da lui, lui che veniva da lei
Non fu un incontro ma un bombardamento
Si aprirono i cieli si aprirono le strade
E i due camminarono senza vergogna
Quanto amore, quanto amore fu sprecato dall’elettrotecnico
Era il 38 luglio e faceva molto caldo
Ed era scoppiata l’afa, quando all’elettrotecnico le venne una grossa idea:
Si sdraiò per terra e si fece camminare su un camion con rimorchio
Ma non si fece male perché aveva in tasca un portafortuna
Un portafortuna che gli aveva regalato sua zia Woller
Un piede di porco a pila
Il capo indiano che si chiamava: Mo' vengo anch’io
Non venne mai e non si fece vedere perché era un timido
L’arbitro severo ma imparziale dettò la vittoria all’elettrotecnico
Per una ferita sopraccigliare del polipo
E così dove finì il fiume incominciò questo tremendo film

Lyrics translation

Where the river ends the film begins:
The terrible story of an electrical engineer who knew how to invent the battery
Not a few succeeded, but it was he who invented it
Four days later they discovered the electric light
It was a big mistake for the electrical engineer
But he wanted to insist and got hurt
He got hurt thinking about her.
She who came to him, he who came to her
It was not a meeting but a bombing
The heavens opened the streets
And the two walked without shame
How much love, how much love was wasted by the electrical technician
It was July 38 and it was very hot
And the panic broke out, when she got a big idea at the electrical school.:
He lay down on the floor and walked on a truck with a trailer
But he didn't get hurt because he had a lucky charm in his pocket
A lucky charm his aunt Woller gave him
A pile crowbar
The Indian chief who was called: Mo ' I come too
He never came and didn't show up because he was shy
The strict but impartial referee dictated the victory at the electrotechnical
For an eyebrow wound of the polyp
And so where the river ended this terrible film began
