È il solo patrimonio di famiglia
It is the only family heritage
Il padre dice è l'unico mio figlio
Father says he is my only son
'O tengo come l'ovo dint' a paglia
'O I keep like the egg dint' to straw
Chi m'o tocca, chi m'o tocca
Whoever touches me, whoever touches me
Sul mio corpo 'a da passà
On my body 'a da passa
Cocco bello, cocco bello
Beautiful coconut, beautiful coconut
S'ì nnato c'a camisa e co'cappiello
He was born with a shirt and a hat
Cocco bello, cocco bello
Beautiful coconut, beautiful coconut
Te s'ì cresciuto 'a barba e 'o mustasciello
You've grown a beard and a mustache
S'e tirano i capelli e bionda e bruna
Both blondes and brunettes pull their hair
Pensando a tutt'e sorde che tu tiene
Thinking of all the deaf things you hold
Cocco bello, cocco bello
Beautiful coconut, beautiful coconut
Tu quando passi 'a ggente fai girà
When you pass by, people will turn
'A fija e nu pascià, cu tte vurria spusà
'A fija e nu pasha, cu tte vurria spusà
Cocco bello di mammà
Nice mama's boy
Auffa, piantatela
Ugh, stop it
E se non mi lasciate stare subito un vigile vado a chiamare
And if you don't leave me alone I'm going to call a policeman right away
E se continuate a farmi la guerra, mi sporco tutto e mi butto per terra
And if you continue to make war on me, I'll get all dirty and throw myself on the floor
E bravo, bravo, bravo facci vedere 'sto fascino slavo
And well done, well done, show us this Slavic charm
Con quella mano che stai dimenando
With that hand you're waving
Sembri il ritratto di Marlon Brando
You look like a portrait of Marlon Brando
È nato stravagato e scumbinato
He was born extravagant and confused
Nu tic tiene nun po' sta' mai quieto
No tic keeps a little, never stay quiet
Con l'erre moscia parla il fortunato
The lucky one speaks with the soft R
Casimiro, casimiro, il cocchetto di mammà
Casimiro, Casimiro, mother's boy
Cocco bello, cocco bello
Beautiful coconut, beautiful coconut
S'ì nnato c'a camisa e co'cappiello
He was born with a shirt and a hat
Cocco bello cocco bello
Beautiful coconut beautiful coconut
Te s'ì cresciuto 'a barba e 'o mustasciello
You've grown a beard and a mustache
S'e tirano i capelli e bionda e bruna
Both blondes and brunettes pull their hair
Pensando a tutt'e sorde che tu tiene
Thinking of all the deaf things you hold
Cocco bello, cocco bello
Beautiful coconut, beautiful coconut
Tu quando passi 'a ggente fai girà
When you pass by, people will turn
'A fija e nu pascià, cu tte vurria spusà
'A fija e nu pasha, cu tte vurria spusà
