Sono innocente ma
I'm innocent, but
Ma non mi fido più
But I don't trust anymore
Ho solo qualche multa da pagare
I only have a few fines to pay
Qualche pastiglia e qualche rospo da ingoiare
A few pills and a few toads to swallow
Sono innocente o no
Am I innocent or not
Si fa quel che si può
You do what you can
Sono innocente ma qui
I'm innocent, but here
Qualcuno è sempre pronto a giudicare
Someone is always ready to judge
Qualche incidente di gioventù
Some accident from my youth
Che ancora mi fa male
That still hurts me
Sparatemi ancora
Shoot me again
Così vedremo chi cade chi perde chi ruba
So we'll see who falls, who loses, who steals
E chi sorride c'ha la pelle dura
And whoever smiles has thick skin
Facciamo una prova
Let's try it
Vediamo come te la giochi
Let's see how you handle it
Se vivi tra due fuochi
If you live between two fires
Se cadi come un pollo
If you fall like a chicken
O resti in piedi come rocky
Or you stay standing like Rocky
Sono innocente ma
I'm innocent, but
Ma non mi fido più
But I don't trust anymore
Ho sempre qualche conto in sospeso
I always have some unfinished business
La moto pronta con motore acceso
The motorbike is ready with the engine running
Sono innocente ok
I'm innocent, okay
Però non si sa mai
But you never know
Non sono perfetto lo so
I'm not perfect, I know
Ma sono pulito davvero
But I'm really clean
Qualche macchia qua e là
A few stains here and there
Qualche incidente con le autorità
A few incidents with the authorities
Sparatemi ancora
Shoot me again
Così vedremo chi cade chi perde chi ruba
So we'll see who falls, who loses, who steals
E chi sorridi c'ha la pelle dura
And whoever smiles has thick skin
Facciamo una prova
Let's try it
Vediamo come te la giochi
Let's see how you handle it
Se vivi tra due fuochi
If you live between two fires
Se cadi come un pollo
If you fall like a chicken
O resti in piedi come rocky
Or you stay standing like Rocky
Sparatemi ancora
Shoot me again
Sparatemi ancora
Shoot me again
Sparatemi ancora
Shoot me again
Così vedremo chi cade chi perde chi ruba
So we'll see who falls, who loses, who steals
E chi sorridi c'ha la pelle dura
And whoever smiles has thick skin
Facciamo una prova
Let's try it
Vediamo come te la giochi
Let's see how you handle it
Se vivi tra due fuochi
If you live between two fires
Se cadi come un pollo
If you fall like a chicken
O resti in piedi come rocky
Or you stay standing like Rocky
Sparatemi ancora
Shoot me again
Did you like this lyrics translation?
rospo — toad
Rospo literally means "toad". It's an unusual and vivid word to find in song lyrics, making it memorable and intriguing.
In this context, Vasco Rossi uses the idiom "ingoiare un rospo" (to swallow a toad), which means to put up with something unpleasant or to accept a bitter truth. It perfectly captures the song's theme of facing difficult realities and injustices despite claiming innocence.
