Giù dalla torre
Down from the tower
Butterei tutti quanti gli artisti
I would throw all the artists
Perché le trombe del giudizio suoneranno
Why the trumpets of judgment will sound
Per tutti quelli che credono in quello che fanno
For all those who believe in what they do
Per gli spartani
For the Spartans
Una volta era uguale
Once it was the same
Buttavano giù da una rupe
They threw off a cliff
Quelli che venivano male
Those who were hurting
Giù dalla torre
Down from the tower
Butterei tutti quanti i teatranti
I would throw all the theater
E nostra signora dei turchi
And Our Lady of the Turks
Specchio delle mie brame
Mirror of my desires
Chi è fra noi il più bravo del reame?
Who among us is the best in the realm?
E salverei
And I would save
Chi non ha voglia di far niente
Who doesn't want to do anything
E non sa fare niente
And he can't do anything
Chi non ha voglia di far niente
Who doesn't want to do anything
E salverei
And I would save
Chi non ha voglia di far niente
Who doesn't want to do anything
E non sa fare
And it doesn't know how to do
Giù dalla torre
Down from the tower
Butterei tutti quanti i registi
I would throw all the directors
Gli attori e gli elettrodomestici
Actors and household appliances
Per la vigilia della distruzione
For the eve of destruction
Ritorneranno dinosauri antidiluviani
Antidiluvian dinosaurs will return
Una razza di super-rettili
A race of super-reptiles
Che si mangerà scialalalalalà
What you will eat scialalalalalà
I presentatori
Presenters
Specie quelli creativi
Especially creative ones
Che giocano ai quiz elettronici
Who play electronic quizzes
Si mangerà chi fa ma non sa quel che fa
You will eat those who do but do not know what they do
Si salverà
It will be saved
Chi non ha voglia di far niente
Who doesn't want to do anything
E non sa fare niente
And he can't do anything
Chi non ha voglia di far niente
Who doesn't want to do anything
Si salverà
It will be saved
Chi non ha voglia di far niente
Who doesn't want to do anything
E non sa fare
And it doesn't know how to do
