Vedo gente che
I see people who
Veste di moda
Dress in fashion
Ogni giorno che vie'
Every day that goes by
Una nuova ne va
A new one goes
E li vedo scansarsi sull'autobus
And I see them scampering on the bus
Quando sale un barbone
When a bum gets on
O uno zingaro
Or a gypsy
'sarà l'invidia?
'Will it be envy?
O lo schifo per se stessi?'
Or self-loathing?'
Pensa il barbone
Thinks the bum
'che non siete più liberi
'That you are no longer free
Di non avere
Of not having
Una casa con letto
A house with a bed
Per dormire
To sleep in
Lavorate voi
Work you
Schiavi dei soldi
Slaves to money
Che non sentite la puzza
That you don't smell the stench
Della schiavitù
Of slavery
Con una carrozzella
With a wheelchair
Spingerò i miei guai
I'll push my troubles
I cartoni e la vita
The cartoons and the life
Lontani da voi
Away from you
Che mangiate ogni giorno
Who eat every day
E sapete il perché
And you know why
Ma chi è povero in canna
But he who is poor in the flesh
Non parla d'amore'
Speak not of love'
Chissà, vedremo mai
Who knows, will we ever see
Il popolo dell'abisso
The people of the abyss
Alzarsi per levare il pugno e
Stand up to raise their fists and
Rovesciare i quartieri
Overthrow the neighborhoods
E le città
And cities
Forse sarà il nostro
Perhaps it will be our
Ultimo sogno
Last dream
