Sorry babes, but it takes some time
Without salt, without sense
Without gluten, without regret
You’ll wonder where it’s gone
Meanwhile, every tiniest real instinct
I get lost on purpose
I’m going to contaminate myself
I’m going to take a bath
Inside the forest
Come too
Come too
Come too
Trust me, we won’t end up in any specific place
We’ll be particles flying in the air
Trust me, come on, nobody out, everybody in
A perfect ghetto
Now I feel
Now I’m in
Now I light up
But I won’t turn off
We’ll be everywhere, we’ll be tomorrow
We change over time
Yet we still stay human
We’ll be everywhere even if far apart
Different spaces mirror the same
I get lost on purpose
I’m going to contaminate myself
I’m going to take a bath
Inside a forest
Trust me
Trust me
Trust me
Trust me, come on, nobody out, everybody in
A perfect ghetto
Now I feel
Now I’m in
And if I let go
Then I’ll take myself back
Hands intertwined like roots, ideals hanging from the stars
Shows on a wire, applause in the wind
Tears of rain, drops on the leaves
Inside a glass of water a flower that melts
Trust me
We won’t end up in any specific place
We’ll be particles flying in the air
Trust me, come on
If it’s not uncomfortable it doesn’t hit you
A perfect ghetto
(F*ck, I snapped the pen), (Haha, fantastic)
Now I choose myself
Now I’m in
And if I melt
Then I’ll spread out

SONG MEANING

“Ghetto Perfetto” feels like an invitation to get gloriously lost. Francesca Michielin swaps the sterile “senza sale, senza senso” world for a wild forest of sounds and feelings, urging us to jump in and “contaminate” ourselves with real life. By calling this boundless meeting place a perfect ghetto, she flips the word’s negative weight into a haven where nobody is left outside, everyone blends like free-floating particles, and rules melt away.

Trust me, she repeats, because the journey is about shedding labels—gluten-free, regret-free, worry-free—and lighting up your own spark without fear of it being snuffed out. Roots tangle like joined hands, ideals hang from the stars, and even rain tears become applause in the wind. The song celebrates constant change: we scatter, reform, dissolve, and spread again, yet remain stubbornly human. It is a pulsing anthem for exploring, connecting, and creating a shared space where difference is not just allowed, it is the very magic that makes the ghetto perfect.
