DAVVERODAVVERO Lyrics in English by Artie 5ive
Conigliette literally means "little bunnies" or "bunny girls." While it can refer to actual small rabbits, in the context of this song, it's a clear reference to "Playboy bunnies" or attractive women.
Artie 5ive uses this word to paint a picture of a lavish, party-filled lifestyle, asking for "conigliette" to be brought to his room. It's an interesting word choice that immediately evokes a specific image of luxury and indulgence, making it memorable and enticing for a learner.
Artie 5ive says the word davvero (really) twenty-five times across this song, which is what you do when you are arguing with someone who is not in the room. "Yo, l'abbiamo fatto davvero, davvero / Anche se non ci prendevi sul serio" (Yo, we really did it, really / Even though you didn't take us seriously) is the hook, and the person being answered never gets a name. The proof comes out the way you would list it to a doubter: "Ormai da tempo non prendo la metro" (I haven't taken the subway in a long time), "Ti passo a prendere sopra un Mercedes" (I'll come pick you up in a Mercedes). Then he undercuts himself one line later with "Anche se non ho manco la patente, okay" (Even though I don't even have a licence, okay), which is the funniest moment on the track.
Underneath the flexing the song keeps circling back to people who are not there to watch it happen. "Mamma mi guarda da sopra uno schermo" (Mom watches me from over a screen) puts his own mother at the far end of a phone, and "Chi se n'è andato ci guarda dal cielo / Prega per noi che restiamo all'inferno" (Those who left watch over us from the sky / Pray for us who stay behind in hell) draws the line he is standing on. The most honest bar is a question, not a boast: "Ancora mi chiedo se certe cose me le merito / O sogno con gli occhi aperti" (I still wonder whether I deserve certain things / Or whether I'm dreaming with my eyes open). Repeat a word enough and it starts to sound less like a fact and more like a wish.
