Flop Lyrics in English by Izi, Leon Faun
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Flop by Izi from Italian to English.
Duffy, okay, okay
Duffy, okay, okay
Quando ho il foglio davanti, torno il bimbo
When I have the paper in front of me, I become a kid again
Sono dentro, in quel momento il vero è il finto
I'm inside, at that moment the real is the fake
Come un limbo, sì, quasi fosse un circo
Like a limbo, yes, almost like a circus
Chico, non mi dire: 'Tu sei pazzo' che arrossisco (uoh)
Chico, don't tell me: "You're crazy" because I blush (uoh)
Ehi, non propormi quelle cose, non resisto (no)
Hey, don't offer me those things, I can't resist (no)
Un brivido per uno sguardo, un basilisco
A shiver from a glance, a basilisk
Pagine di un libro in cui da tempo mi descrivo
Pages of a book where I've been describing myself for a long time
Ti avviso, io non avviso, ma se hai visto, fammi un fischio
I'm warning you, I don't warn, but if you've seen, give me a whistle
E vada come vada, faccio: 'Hakuna matata' (ehi)
And come what may, I say: "Hakuna Matata" (hey)
Faccia a faccia col karma, suono alla mo' di cicala (ehi)
Face to face with karma, I sound like a cicada (hey)
Alle spalle un'armata, pare quasi parata (uoh)
An army behind me, it almost looks like a parade (uoh)
Caldi come lava da quando qua nevicava e faccio (ehi)
Hot like lava since it was snowing here and I say (hey)
Buon flop, appena avrai visto
Good flop, as soon as you've seen it
Non so davvero cosa dirai (vai)
I really don't know what you'll say (go)
Don't stop a questo mio circo
Don't stop this circus of mine
Lo so che non mi tolleri mai
I know you never tolerate me
E buon flop a questo mio disco
And good flop to this album of mine
Non so davvero cosa dira-a-a-ai (uoh)
I really don't know what you'll sa-a-a-ay (uoh)
Don't stop, a questo mio circo
Don't stop, this circus of mine
Lo so che non mi tolleri mai (prego, Diego)
I know you never tolerate me (you're welcome, Diego)
Buon flop appena registro
Good flop as soon as I record
La smetto di cacciarmi nei guai
I'll stop getting myself into trouble
Buon flop a questo mio disco
Good flop to this album of mine
Fosse per voi non uscirei mai
If it were up to you, I'd never come out
Tutti mi augurano il flop perché c'hanno troppa paura
Everyone wishes me to flop because they're too scared
'Devi andare in top ten e restare al top, poi passare al pop
"You have to go into the top ten and stay at the top, then move to pop
E dal pop poi prenderlo in culo perché siete in troppi
And from pop then get f*cked because there are too many of you
E se non floppi, non hai un futuro'
And if you don't flop, you don't have a future"
Sto perdendo tempo, 'Truman Show', through my show, Mairon
I'm wasting time, "Truman Show", through my show, Mairon
Sono tutti infami, però è un dettaglio
They're all b*stards, but that's a detail
Se sembriamo solo fatti, forse è un abbaglio
If we just seem high, maybe it's a delusion
Scopo sopra ai tuoi contratti come Sean Michaels (non mi puoi fermare)
I f*ck on your contracts like Sean Michaels (you can't stop me)
Buon flop, appena avrai visto
Good flop, as soon as you've seen it
Non so davvero cosa dirai (vai)
I really don't know what you'll say (go)
Don't stop a questo mio circo
Don't stop this circus of mine
Lo so che non mi tolleri mai
I know you never tolerate me
E buon flop a questo mio disco
And good flop to this album of mine
Non so davvero cosa dira-a-a-ai (uoh)
I really don't know what you'll sa-a-a-ay (uoh)
Don't stop a questo mio circo
Don't stop this circus of mine
Lo so che non mi tolleri mai
I know you never tolerate me
Buon flop, appena avrai visto
Good flop, as soon as you've seen it
Non so davvero cosa dirai (vai)
I really don't know what you'll say (go)
Don't stop a questo mio circo
Don't stop this circus of mine
Lo so che non mi tolleri mai
I know you never tolerate me
Buon
Good
Buon
Good

Did you like this lyrics translation?
flop — flop
Flop is an English loanword directly incorporated into Italian, meaning a complete failure or disaster. It's interesting because it highlights the direct influence of English on modern Italian slang and music.
In Izi's song, he repeatedly wishes himself a "buon flop" (good flop), ironically embracing the idea of failure. This challenges the typical music industry pressure to always be at the top, suggesting that true success might lie in defying expectations and not conforming to commercial demands. It's a provocative and self-aware use of the word.
