Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Er Ciccione by Banda Bassotti from Italian to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
C'è in italia uno ciccione, la mattina sai che fa?
There is in italy a fat man, in the morning you know what he does?
Allo specchio, imitazione, grida 'Eia alalà'
In the mirror, imitation, he shouts 'Eia alalà'
Col garofano alla mano parla al popolo italiano
With carnation in hand he speaks to the Italian people
Dice 'farò diventare tutti quanti buoni'
He says 'I'll make everyone good'
La banana, la banana tira forte più che puoi
The banana, the banana pulls as hard as you can
Non uscì la sera tardi, ponno esse cazzi tuoi?
Didn't go out late at night, ponno esse cazzi tuoi?
C'è in italia uno bassetto, la mattina sai che fa?
There's a short guy in italy, in the morning you know what he does?
Riportino allo specchietto grida 'Eia alalà'
Riportino at the mirror shouts 'Eia alalà'
Telecomando alla mano parla al popolo italiano
Remote control in hand speaks to the Italian people
Dice 'farò diventare tutti quanti buoni'
He says 'I'll make everyone good'
La banana, la banana tira forte più che puoi
The banana, the banana pulls as hard as you can
Non uscì la sera tardi, ponno esse cazzi tuoi?
Didn't go out late at night, ponno esse cazzi tuoi?
