These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Su carri armati e aerei
On tanks and planes
Baciamo le mani
Kissing hands
E le missioni di pace
And peace missions
E gli agguati di mafia
And the mafia ambushes
Figlio di un altro ministro
Son of another minister
Figlio di un povero cristo
Son of a poor Christ
Figli del centro-sinistra
Sons of the center-left
Non manca mai la minestra
There is never a shortage of soup
E i picciotti fidati
And the trusted picciotti
Dal governo
From the government
Un destro e dopo un sinistro
A right and after a left
Con le mani insanguinate
With bloody hands
E i debiti non pagati
And unpaid debts
