La pennicanza è una sostanza
Pennicance is a substance
Che si consuma dopo i pasti in abbondanza
Which is consumed after meals in abundance
Ti prende l'onda della sognanza
The wave of dreaminess takes you
La dormiglianza è un'arte fai da te
Dormancy is a DIY art
La pennicanza, che bella usanza
Pennicance, what a beautiful custom
Porta la pace e la tolleranza
Bring peace and tolerance
E a chi non piace, non ha importanza
And whoever doesn't like it doesn't matter
Cantiamo, 'Viva la santa pennicanza'
Let's sing, 'Long live the holy pennicanza'
La pennicanza, pennicanza
Pennicance, pennicance
Dormi beato come in vacanza
Sleep as blissfully as on holiday
Canta alla radio tutta l'Italia
He sings on the radio all over Italy
Evviva, evviva la santa pennicanza
Long live, long live the holy pennicanza
Ueh
Uh
Piace al curato che dice messa
The curate who says mass likes it
Non fa peccato chi la confessa
He who confesses it does not sin
La fa il notaio e la contessa
The notary and the countess do it
Sopra il divano cadde la penna
The pen fell onto the sofa
La sbadiglianza è buona usanza
Yawning is a good habit
Per chi si gode la latitanza
For those who enjoy being on the run
E pure il ladro che se ne vanta
And even the thief who boasts about it
Si è fatto un anno di santa pennicanza
We have had a year of holy pennication
La pennicanza, pennicanza
Pennicance, pennicance
Dormi beato come in vacanza
Sleep as blissfully as on holiday
Canta alla radio tutta l'Italia
He sings on the radio all over Italy
Evviva, evviva la santa pennicanza
Long live, long live the holy pennicanza
Le nuvole fanno la confabulanza
The clouds do the confabulancy
Le stelle danzano in luminanza
The stars dance in luminance
In mezzo al cielo con tracotanza
In the middle of the sky with arrogance
Brilla la santa pennicanza
Holy pennicance shines
E un cuore esplode con risonanza
And a heart explodes with resonance
La santa pennicanza
The holy pennicance
