Dov'è, dov'è?
Where is it, where is it?
Dov'è quel cuore, dov'è
Where is that heart, where is it
Datemi un coltello, un coltello per favore
Give me a knife, a knife please
Dov'è quel cuore bandito che ha tradito
Where is that banished heart that betrayed
Il mio povero cuore, lo ha smontato e finito
My poor heart, he took it apart and finished it
Dov'è
Where is it
Tu reggimi la mano e poi dimmi se il suo cuore
You hold my hand and then tell me if his heart
È vicino o se è andato tontano
Is it close or has it gone away
Se ingiro per l'Europa, occhi neri
If I travel around Europe, black eyes
Il suo cuore si è seccato, è diventato una scopa
His heart has dried up, it has become a broom
Dov'è se d'amore è proprio vero che non si muore, non si muore
Where is it if it's really true that you don't die of love, you don't die
Cosa faccio nudo per strada mentre piove
What do I do naked on the street while it rains
E c'è di più
And there's more
Non dormo da una settimana
I haven't slept in a week
Per quel cuore di puttana
For that bitch's heart
Sono andato al cinema e mi han mandato via
I went to the cinema and they sent me away
Perché piangevo forte e mangiavo la sua fotografia
Because I cried loudly and ate his photograph
E tu, e tu
And you, and you
Datemi un coltello, un coltello per favore
Give me a knife, a knife please
Dov'è quel cuore marziano
Where is that Martian heart
Se ne è andata sbattendo la porta e avevo in mezzo la mano
She left slamming the door and I had my hand in the middle
Dov'è la diva del muto
Where is the silent film diva
È una minaccia per tutti il suo cuore, il suo cuore ad imbuto
His heart, his funnel heart, is a threat to everyone
Dov'è, dov'è
Where is it, where is it
Scende dal tram e si avvicina e fa due passi
He gets off the tram and approaches and takes a walk
Di mambo
Of mambo
Si sente molto furba e carina dice
She feels very smart and cute she says
Con te non ci rimango
I won't stay with you
Io col cuore in cantina, ma sono un uomo e dico
I'm with my heart in the cellar, but I'm a man and I say
Vattene via
Go away
Leva il tuo sorriso dalla strada
Take your smile off the street
E fai passare la mia malinconia
And make my melancholy go away
E porta via gli stracci, i tuoi fianchi e quella
And take away the rags, your hips and that
Faccia da mambo
Mambo face
E la tua falsa allegria per trasformare in sorriso
And your false cheerfulness to transform into a smile
Anche l'ultimo pianto
Even the last cry
Tu, si, proprio tu, tu, si proprio tu, che non hai mai paura
You, yes, you, you, yes, you, who are never afraid
Chiedi se qualcuno ti presta la faccia
Ask if anyone will lend you their face
Stai facendo una brutta figura
You're making a bad impression
La mia regina del mambo
My mambo queen
Se ci ripenso preferisco ritornare in cantina
When I think about it I prefer to go back to the cellar
Che avere te, ancora al mio fianco, tu, tu
Than to have you, still by my side, you, you
