Tikibombom Lyrics in English Levante

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tikibombom by Levante from Italian to English.
Hey you, tired animal
You've been left alone
You don't follow the pack
You dance the tango while the whole world
Shakes its hips to a beat that goes
Tikibombombom
Hey you, defenseless soul
You count every time you've surrendered
Hung on the tightrope of others' opinions
You flail in the wind
Of those with no feelings
Never again, better alone than accompanied
By dreamless souls ready to drag you with them
Down with them
Tikibombombom
Down there, among dogs and pigs
Children of a lesser God ready to strike us
To drag us down with them
Down with them
No, no, no, no we're lights of another city
We're the wind, not the flag, that's us
No, no, no, no we're the last in line
We're lands never seen before, only us
Hey you, from the class
Sissy dressed in those rhinestones
Try to act like a man
Please, I insist
Cross yourself and then renounce Mephisto
Hey you, rebellious soul
This life has never noticed you
Caught off guard, too cultured
Too absorbed, that skirt is short
Never again, better alone than accompanied
By dreamless souls ready to drag you with them
Down with them
No, no, no, no we're lights of another city
We're the wind, not the flag, that's us
No, no, no, no we're the last in line
We're lands never seen before, only us
Tikibombombom
No, no, no, no we're angels broken in half
We're churches open late at night, that's us
No, no, no, no we're lights of another city
We're the wind, not the flag, that's us
No, no, no, no we're the last in line
We're lands never seen before, only us
No, no, no, no we're the anchor, not the sail
We're the amen of a prayer, that's us
Hey you, tired animal
You've been left alone
You don't follow the pack
You dance the tango while the whole world
Shakes its hips to a beat that goes
Tikibombombom

SONG MEANING

Tikibombom is Levante’s vibrant shout-out to everyone who feels out of step with the crowd. The catchy onomatopoeic title mimics a thumping mainstream beat, yet the singer turns her back on that beat and chooses to dance the tango instead. Through images of a “tired animal,” “defenseless soul,” and “classroom misfit,” she speaks to outsiders who keep surrendering to other people’s opinions. Levante urges them to stop bending in the “wind of those without emotions” and reminds them that it is far better to stand alone than to march in a herd that has no dreams.

The chorus flips the script, transforming the outcasts into “lights of another city,” “wind, not the flag,” “anchors, not sails.” In other words, their difference is their power. With every “no, no, no, no” she rejects conformity and celebrates authenticity, creating an anthem for rebels, dreamers, and anyone who has ever felt like the last in line. Tikibombom invites listeners to silence the background noise of judgment, claim their own rhythm, and shine precisely because they do not move to the same predictable beat.
