Fast Food Lyrics in English by Ghali
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fast Food by Ghali from Italian to English.
Ehi, dammi il tuo cuore, ci farò un falò
Hey, give me your heart, I'll make a bonfire
Dammi una pistola, io l'appoggerò
Give me a gun, I'll put it down
Dammi le parole, ci farò il flow
Give me the words, I'll make the flow
Dio dammi l'umiltà quando sarò al top
God give me humility when I'm at the top
La mia preghiera quando scende sera
My prayer when evening falls
E quando la folla mi acclama non so più com'era
And when the crowd cheers for me I no longer know how it was
No, se pipperò la mia carriera
No, if I'll snort away my career
Se ostenterò la mia catena
If I'll flaunt my chain
Le mie amicizie che si scremano come la scena
My friendships that thin out like the scene
Infami che mi scambierebbero per una cena
Snakes who would trade me for a dinner
Abbassarmi dei livelli fa male la schiena
Stooping to certain levels hurts my back
Odio la guerra fratello, ma anche chi non si schiera
I hate war brother, but also those who don't take a side
La fame m'ha portato ad essere famoso
Hunger led me to be famous
Mio padre non lo vedo, m'ha chiesto una foto
I don't see my father, he asked me for a photo
La mia storia è triste ma mi ha reso uomo
My story is sad but it made me a man
Non mi mischio con gli scarsi, stanno tra di loro
I don't mix with the weak, they stay among themselves
Cresciuti veloce dentro a un fast food
Grew up fast inside a fast food
Tra un'ora e un grosso, grosso rendez-vous
Between an hour and a big, big rendez-vous
E mamma no, no non piange più
And mom no, no she doesn't cry anymore
Sono innocue ora le luci blu
The blue lights are harmless now
E non guardo più il prezzo sul menù
And I don't look at the price on the menu anymore
Tutto fatto in TV, sto nel mio momento clou
Everything done on TV, I'm in my peak moment
I miei vestiti no, non erano cool
My clothes no, they weren't cool
Tu mi guardavi così e a me non mi andava giù
You looked at me like that and I didn't like it
Hip hip urrà
Hip hip hooray
Hamdulillah, yeah
Alhamdulillah, yeah
Hip hip urrà
Hip hip hooray
Grazie mille
Thanks a lot
Ehi, ma sai che c'è?
Hey, but you know what?
Prenditi tutti i meriti, tutti i crediti
Take all the merits, all the credits
Tutto quel che c'è, te lo meriti
Everything there is, you deserve it
Non devo niente a te, io non ho debiti
I owe you nothing, I have no debts
Non ho una catena, già brillo
I don't have a chain, I already shine
Non scrivo tanto perché sono pigro
I don't write much because I'm lazy
Stare al primo posto mi tiene tranquillo
Being in first place keeps me calm
Dio tirami fuori da 'sto Black Mirror
God pull me out of this Black Mirror
Quanti drammi, quanti danni
How many dramas, how much damage
Tutti pieni di problemi
Everyone full of problems
Tutti dammi, dammi, dammi
Everyone give me, give me, give me
Nessun tieni, tieni, tieni
Nobody keep, keep, keep
Eravamo tutti amici
We were all friends
Eravamo un gruppo unito
We were a united group
Finché poi per pochi spicci
Until then for a few bucks
Ti sei girato, sei sparito
You turned around, you disappeared
Cresciuti veloce dentro a un fast food
Grew up fast inside a fast food
Tra un'ora e un grosso, grosso rendez-vous
Between an hour and a big, big rendez-vous
E mamma no, no non piange più
And mom no, no she doesn't cry anymore
Sono innocue ora le luci blu
The blue lights are harmless now
E non guardo più il prezzo sul menù
And I don't look at the price on the menu anymore
Tutto fatto in TV, sto nel mio momento clou
Everything done on TV, I'm in my peak moment
I miei vestiti no, non erano cool
My clothes no, they weren't cool
Tu mi guardavi così, e a me non mi andava giù
You looked at me like that, and I didn't like it

Did you like this lyrics translation?
scremano — are skimmed / are thinned out
Scremano comes from the verb scremare, which literally means "to skim" (like skimming milk) or "to thin out". It's an interesting word because it's not commonly found in everyday conversation or many song lyrics.
In this song, Ghali uses it metaphorically to describe how his friendships are "thinned out" or "weeded out" over time, similar to how the music scene itself (la scena) gets filtered. This vivid imagery makes the word memorable and adds depth to his reflection on fame and loyalty.
