Le Guardie Lyrics in English by Carl Brave, Taxi B

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Guardie by Carl Brave from Italian to English.
Appuntato, le giuro, non è stata colpa mia
Officer, I swear, it wasn't my fault
Giovedì stavo in via - a farmi i cazzi mia
Thursday I was out – minding my own business
Co due amici di una vita, usciti a bere due sciocchezze
With two lifelong friends, out for a couple of drinks
A di' cazzate su ragazze, a raccontarci barzellette
Talking sh*t about girls, telling each other jokes
Fatto sta che a una certa è successo il parapiglia
The fact is that at some point the brawl happened
Questo tipo ha scapocciato in un battito di ciglia
This guy lost his mind in the blink of an eye
E pare assurdo che m'ha pure denunciato
And it seems absurd that he even reported me
E mo le spiego come sono andati i fatti
And now I'll explain how things went down
Semo bravi ragazzi
We're good guys
Zona malfamata quando i turisti non sono per strada
Bad neighborhood when tourists aren't on the street
Un bar che pulisce la grana, co' una barista che pare cubana
A bar that launders money, with a bartender who looks Cuban
Che vende la merce, che fa la puttana
Who sells the goods, who acts like a wh*re
Mi offre uno shot, balla un travello, mi pare TikTok
She offers me a shot, a transvestite dances, it seems like TikTok
Malattie veneree che fanno ping pong
Venereal diseases playing ping pong
Un ubriaco mi dice mi ama, poi, boh, mi vuole pistare
A drunk tells me he loves me, then, who knows, he wants to beat me up
Dico: 'Vai tra'' ti prego, zitto, aria pesante, puzza di soffritto
I say: "Chill out," please, shut up, heavy air, smells of fried food
Urla la voce, s'attacca al soffitto
The voice screams, it sticks to the ceiling
Tutti che spizzano, come un delitto
Everyone staring, like a crime
Lo fisso, parte pe' primo, liscio, parto, destro-sinistro
I stare at him, he goes first, misses, I go, right-left
Una sinfonia, paro Beppe Vessicchio
A symphony, I look like Beppe Vessicchio
Non ho studiato diritto, ma c'ho un bel dritto
I haven't studied law, but I have a good straight punch
Mi sale l'ansia delle telecamere
Camera anxiety rises in me
Allungo il passo pe' andarmene
I quicken my pace to leave
Il proprietario chiude le serrande
The owner closes the shutters
Un samaritano cerca il responsabile
A Samaritan looks for the culprit
Qualcuno chiami le guardie (guardie)
Someone call the police (police)
Ma le guardie non entrano qua
But the police don't come in here
Le sento che dicono: 'Falli scanna''
I hear them saying: "Let them kill each other"
E poi non ricordo più niente, più niente
And then I don't remember anything anymore, anything anymore
Le guardie fanno
The police do
Fanno

Le guardie fanno
The police do
Fanno

The police do
Sud Italia, sempre in giro con la lama
Southern Italy, always out with a blade
Se non ci sei stato attento a chi guardi
If you haven't been careful who you look at
Se non vuoi problemi con me
If you don't want problems with me
Non fare casino che ci sono le guardie
Don't cause trouble, the police are here
Ho tutti i fratelli con cento precedenti
I have all my brothers with a hundred priors
Punto gli daresti un anno
Period, you'd give him a year
Questo figlio di puttana vuole problemi
This son of a b*tch wants problems
Io non perdo tempo con i senza palle
I don't waste time with cowards
Arriva Chicco gli taglia le mani
Chicco arrives and cuts his hands
(Le mani, le mani, le mani, le mani, le mani)
(The hands, the hands, the hands, the hands, the hands)
Te vuoi fottere a me?
You want to f*ck with me?
Ho un cinema in testa
I have a movie in my head
Un misto tra Good Fellas e Piccola Peste
A mix between Goodfellas and Problem Child
Fortunato per il lockdown
Lucky for the lockdown
Ti vedo bene con la fiamma in testa
I see you well with a flame on your head
Sei come un cobra
You're like a cobra
(Cobra)
(Cobra)

Did you like this lyrics translation?

parapiglia — brawl / commotion

Parapiglia translates to "brawl" or "commotion". It's a vivid and somewhat informal word that perfectly captures the chaotic energy of a street fight or a sudden, disorderly event.

In the song, it's used to describe the moment when a situation escalates into a physical altercation: "Fatto sta che a una certa è successo il parapiglia" (The fact is that at a certain point, the brawl happened). This word is less common than generic terms for a fight, making it more engaging and memorable in the context of this narrative.
