Larsen Lyrics in English by Caparezza
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Larsen by Caparezza from Italian to English.
L'ho conosciuto tipo nel 2015
I met him around 2015
Visto che ancora ci convivo brindo quindi cin
Since I still live with it, I toast, so cheers
D'allora nei miei timpani ne porto i sibili
Since then, I carry its hisses in my eardrums
Ogni giorno come fossi di ritorno da uno show degli AC/DC
Every day as if I were returning from an AC/DC show
Larsen
Larsen
Fischiava per la mia tensione un po' come si fa con i taxi
It whistled for my tension, a bit like you do with taxis
Senza una tregua una continuazione ma come si fa a coricarsi
Without a truce, a continuation, but how can you go to bed
Da solo nel letto a dannarmi, nella stanza cori urlanti
Alone in bed, tormenting myself, in the room screaming choirs
Di colpo leggevo i labiali quindi basta coi romanzi
Suddenly I was reading lips, so no more novels
Lo potevo calmare al mare
I could calm it by the sea
Quiete stellare, Antares
Stellar quiet, Antares
Con l'orecchio preso a mazzate
With my ear beaten up
Conor McGregor, Alvarez
Conor McGregor, Alvarez
Uno squillo ossessivo, come un pugno sul clacson
An obsessive ring, like a punch on the horn
Primo pensiero al mattino
First thought in the morning
L'ultimo prima di buttarmi giù dal terrazzo
The last one before throwing myself off the terrace
Fischia l'orecchio infuria l'acufene
My ear whistles, tinnitus rages
Nella testa vuvuzela mica l'ukulele
In my head, vuvuzela, not a ukulele
La mia resistenza è quella zulu, cede
My resistance is Zulu, it gives in
Se arriva Larsen te lo devi tenere
If Larsen arrives, you have to keep it
Fischia l'orecchio infuria l'acufene
My ear whistles, tinnitus rages
Nella testa vuvuzela mica l'ukulele
In my head, vuvuzela, not a ukulele
La mia resistenza è quella zulu, cede
My resistance is Zulu, it gives in
Se arriva Larsen te lo devi tenere
If Larsen arrives, you have to keep it
Parlo di Larsen e metto mano alla fondina
I talk about Larsen and reach for my holster
Alzo la cortina
I raise the curtain
Sentivo fischi pure se il locale carico applaudiva
I heard whistles even if the packed venue applauded
Calo d'autostima
Drop in self-esteem
Non potevo ascoltare la musica come l'ascoltavo prima
I couldn't listen to music like I used to
Io Lagostina, una pressione continua
I'm Lagostina, a continuous pressure
La depressione poi l'ira
Depression, then anger
Mi rivolsi ad uno specialista
I turned to a specialist
Che mi disse c'è una sola cura
Who told me there's only one cure
Come prima cosa nella lista
First thing on the list
Parla con l'orecchio, chiedi scusa
Talk to your ear, apologize
Poi compresse, flebo doppie
Then pills, double IVs
RM, ecodoppler
MRI, eco-Doppler
Ecodiete, ecatombe
Eco-diets, hecatomb
Larsen indenne, era stalker
Larsen unharmed, it was a stalker
Credevano che fossi matto
They thought I was crazy
Volevano portarmi dentro
They wanted to take me in
Ho visto più medici in un anno
I've seen more doctors in a year
Che Firenze nel Rinascimento
Than Florence in the Renaissance
Stress
Stress
Iniziano a dire non sanno che pesci pigliare
They start saying they don't know what to do
A parte quello d'aprile
Except for the April one
Vorrei vederlo sparire, ma
I'd like to see it disappear, but
Fischia l'orecchio infuria l'acufene
My ear whistles, tinnitus rages
Nella testa vuvuzela mica l'ukulele
In my head, vuvuzela, not a ukulele
La mia resistenza è quella zulu, cede
My resistance is Zulu, it gives in
Se arriva Larsen te lo devi tenere
If Larsen arrives, you have to keep it
Fischia l'orecchio infuria l'acufene
My ear whistles, tinnitus rages
Nella testa vuvuzela mica l'ukulele
In my head, vuvuzela, not a ukulele
La mia resistenza è quella zulu, cede
My resistance is Zulu, it gives in
Se arriva Larsen te lo devi tenere
If Larsen arrives, you have to keep it
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
Te lo devi tenere
You have to keep it
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
Te lo devi tenere
You have to keep it
So come ama Larsen e so com'è ammalarsene
I know how Larsen loves and I know what it's like to get sick from it
So che significa stare in un cinema con la voglia di andarsene
I know what it means to be in a cinema wanting to leave
Contro Larsen, l'arsenale
Against Larsen, the arsenal
Non pensavo m'andasse male
I didn't think it would go badly for me
Solo chi ce l'ha comprende quello che sento nel senso letterale
Only those who have it understand what I feel in the literal sense
E poi non mi concentro, mi stanca
And then I can't concentrate, it tires me
Sto invocando pietà, Larsen
I'm begging for mercy, Larsen
Il suono del silenzio a me manca
I miss the sound of silence
Più che a Simon e Garfunkel
More than Simon and Garfunkel
Nel cervello c'è Tom Morello che mi manda feedback
In my brain there's Tom Morello sending me feedback
Hai voluto il rock? Ora tienilo
You wanted rock? Now keep it
Fino alla fine
Until the end
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)
(Fino alla fine)
(Until the end)

acufene — tinnitus
Acufene is the Italian word for "tinnitus," a medical condition characterized by a ringing or buzzing in the ears. It's a specific and less common word that immediately grabs attention.
In Caparezza's song "Larsen," the word acufene is central to the theme, as the song is an extended metaphor for the artist's personal struggle with severe tinnitus. The lyrics vividly describe the constant, intrusive noise, making acufene a powerful and unique word that encapsulates the song's core message.
