Voglio Lyrics in English Marco Mengoni

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Voglio by Marco Mengoni from Italian to English.
Intro
I want
I want a fast motorbike
All the roads empty
I want candy
From those who don't know me
I want to dance naked
Kiss my enemy
I want to spin aimlessly and arrive first
Pull off a robbery with my hands up
Feel bad, bad, I still have fun
Tell everybody I'm leaving tomorrow
And then stay here at check-in
Put my shoes on your couch
Tell real love it wasn't real
I want to crave like a primitive man
Who's halfway between alive and dead
I want
I want a new skin
Dinosaur heart
I want all the blame
But give me applause
And I wanna overdo it
Swim in the foam
Love you like a dog under the full moon
I want to walk on the ledge
Give orders to the emperor
Go around the planet just like
Konyukhov on a BMX
Be invited or out of place
Press the red button with my index finger
I want to crave like a primitive man
That's between light and dark
Between asleep and awake
Who's halfway between alive and dead
I want
Bridge
Loud music whenever I want
A day that lasts twice as long
Bridge
I want
I want a fast motorbike
I want candy
I want to dance naked
Love you like a dog
Outro
I want

SONG MEANING

“Voglio” is Marco Mengoni’s exhilarating shout of freedom, a wish-list where he piles up daring dreams like candy on Halloween night. From craving a fast motorbike and empty streets to wanting to dance naked and kiss his enemy, the Italian singer strings together playful, rebellious fantasies that paint the portrait of someone hungry for life in all its extremes. Each “voglio” (I want) feels like a spark, lighting up desires that swing between childlike mischief and fearless provocation: robbing a bank with hands already raised, putting shoes on a friend’s couch, or telling true love it was never true at all.

Under the fun, the song hides a deeper message about the restless search for identity and authenticity. By demanding everything — a new skin, a dinosaur heart, even the power to press a big red button — Mengoni taps into that primitive urge to feel intensely, to test boundaries, and to live louder than the ticking clock. “Voglio” invites us to celebrate our contradictions, laugh at our own audacity, and remember that burning curiosity that makes us feel alive between light and dark, sleep and wake, life and death.
