The spider knows well that you go to the estate
With signed cards from prey stuck to the webs
He knows how to do it, the wasp grants him the hive
'Have faith, things are about to change'
He raves, lives in a palace and chatters endlessly
Rallies with the substance of a fart
Shows bugs, quotes wise men, and struts
We cockroaches in the dark about what he handles
The red ant rebels, who brawls
With the black one that batons her when she passes
Like a drone, they throw her in jail if she breaks things
Especially if she has a crest and doesn't lower it
The green fly, drunk on sh*t, often gets lost
Among the bullsh*t of the congress
Flushes the tse-tse flies down the toilet
Because no one can stay in the living room without permission
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your a**
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your
Of the estate, they are inept insects in many aspects
Aseptic, delicacies for reptiles
Closed in parliaments like woodworms in drawers
So absent that you take them for furnishings
They have flat lives like cockroaches
Crabs in the pants of nights with fireflies in taverns
They shoot swarms of lies, but hide the bullets
Like ticks among the bristles
Like beetles, they act flashy
Seduce mantis lovers with diamond cloaks
And the crickets, shiny singers of idylls
Silenced by purging insecticides
Of well-off caterpillars that pay chrysalises
For butterfly wings but remain repugnant
Alibis from stagnant dragonflies that moving forward
Make more mutineers than on the Bounty
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your a**
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your
Extraordinary edition of the evening estate
Black widow cries for the warrior bee
Fired on the spot, the termite despairs
Millipedes kick a** at the border
The mite laughs because the world is a powder keg
The fanfare precedes the parade
Excited like a mosquito with neon
Frantic like horseflies on rodeo horses
Big words fly that not even in Scrabble
And he, 'Marameo', didn't give a sh*t
Thinks of his team of ladybugs that excels in results
Certain boring headaches he entrusts to lousy lawyers
Who have dug spiders from the hole, so
There are those who want him underground, earthworm
Who would place a bumblebee on his navel
Who like a snail sucks him
And who is content to give him a grasshopper hit on the nape
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your a**
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your
Come and see, come on, come and see
The wonderful insects of the estate
And if you bend down, but can't see
All normal, they've entered your a**
But f*ck off

cicaleggiachirps (like a cicada)

Cicaleggia comes from cicalare, meaning 'to chirp like a cicada'. It's a vivid and somewhat rare verb that immediately brings to mind the sound and imagery of summer.

In the song, Caparezza uses it metaphorically to describe someone who talks incessantly and perhaps boastfully, much like a cicada's constant chirping. This unique usage makes the word particularly memorable and engaging.

Welcome to the farm! In "Gli Insetti Del Podere," Italian rapper Caparezza uses the world of insects as a powerful and clever metaphor for human society, especially the world of politics. The farm isn't a peaceful place; it's a chaotic system run by corrupt and self-serving creatures. The spider is a manipulative leader who traps his victims in his web with false promises, while the green fly gets lost in the "nonsense of the congress." It's a world where dissent is crushed, like the red ant who rebels only to be beaten down by the black ant.

Caparezza paints a vivid picture of this dysfunctional society. The politicians are described as "inept insects" who are so absent they might as well be furniture. They are caterpillars who pay for butterfly wings but remain ugly, and beetles who seduce lovers with fake diamonds. The chorus invites you to "come and see the wonderful insects of the farm," but warns that if you can't see them, it's because they've already taken advantage of you. It's a sharp, satirical critique of power, corruption, and the public's relationship with its leaders, all wrapped up in a creative and biting allegory.
