These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Gelosa, cara, amica mia
Jealous, dear, my friend
È proprio un tarlo, una malattia
It's just a woodworm, a disease
Quella di non saper scordare
That of not being able to forget
Ciò che da me non puoi sapere
What you can't know from me
Tutti i miei amori precedenti
All my previous loves
Fanno più male del mal di denti
They hurt more than toothache
Tutti quei baci che ho già dato
All those kisses I've already given
Non vanno via con un bucato
They don't leave with laundry
Gelosa, cara, amica mia
Jealous, dear, my friend
Io ti capisco veramente
I really understand you
Tanto che ho detto una bugia
So much so that I told a lie
Pur non essendo uno che mente
While not one who lies
In confidenza, amore mio
In confidence, my love
Qualche problema ce l'ho anch'io
I have some problems, too
Per non parlare dell'effetto
Not to mention the effect
Per le tue ex cose di letto
For your former bed things
L'odio feroce, l'odio ruggente
Fierce hatred, roaring hatred
Fa male dentro e brucia la mente
It hurts inside and burns the mind
Io ti capisco ne so qualcosa
I understand you I know something
Esser civile come pesa
Being as civil as it weighs
Andiamo via
Let's go away
Via dai fantasmi
Away from ghosts
In fretta, via
Quickly, away
Da questi inutili spasmi
From these useless spasms
Lasciando qui
Leaving here
I tormentosi masochismi
The Tormented Masochisms
Che inventano alla fine
That they invent in the end
Una tristezza che non c'è
A sadness that is not there
Gelosa, cara, amica mia
Jealous, dear, my friend
Facciamo un giro in bicicletta
Let's take a bike ride
Io sono otello e tu mia zia
I am othello and you my aunt
Così non va bene, dammi retta
So it's not good, listen to me
Guardiamo il lago, guardiamo i prati
Let's look at the lake, look at the meadows
Ma non guardiamo gli innamorati
But let's not look at lovers
Perché se no elucubriamo
Because if not we elude
E ancora una volta da capo siamo
And once again we are
