Lo zio fantastico

(original)
Quasi ogni domenica, una ragazza nuova
ad ogni primo incontro, la stessa
passeggiata
lui lo zio fantastico, l’auto non l’aveva
ma un amico fisso che lo accompagnava
Folle nei teatri, variet e rivista
le soubrettes e i comici, pubblico entusiasta
la ribalta splendida come una vetrina
e lo zio fantastico, sempre in prima fila…
E poi arriv la guerra…
che tutti i sogni porta via
la guerra in ogni lettera, in ogni fotografia
E poi arriv la guerra, che tutti i sogni porta via
la guerra quella vera quella senza ironia…
Signorine pallide, storie di anni trenta
e lo zio fantastico, che ce le racconta
c’era ancora il valzer e tutti erano felici
ma lui pensava a Cuba ed ai suoi ritmi audaci…
E una sera perse, l’ultima corriera
ogni due chilometri, una lampadina
tutto quello scuro, non lo spaventava
mentre camminava, pensava al suo futuro…
E poi arriv la guerra… che tutti i sogni porta via
la guerra in ogni lettera, in ogni fotografia
E poi arriv la guerra, sempre diversa, sempre uguale
la guerra dove tutto un po' pi grigio, anche il mare
E poi arriv la guerra, che tutti i sogni porta via
la guerra quella vera quella senza ironia
La guerra vera, la guerra finta
la guerra che lo zio fantastico non la
racconta
La guerra finta, la guerra vera
la guerra che lo zio fantastico chiss dov’era
La guerra vera, la guerra finta
la guerra che alla fine non si sa mai che l’ha vinta!
La guerra finta, la guerra vera
la guerra che lo zio fantastico chiss dov’era
(translation)
Almost every Sunday, a new girl
at every first meeting, the same
stroll
he was the fantastic uncle, he didn't have a car
but a steady friend who accompanied him
Crowds in theaters, variety and magazine
the soubrettes and the comedians, an enthusiastic audience
the limelight as splendid as a shop window
and the fantastic uncle, always in the front row ...
And then the war came ...
that all dreams take away
the war in every letter, in every photograph
And then came the war, which all dreams take away
the real war the one without irony ...
Pale ladies, stories from the thirties
and the fantastic uncle, who tells us about them
there was still the waltz and everyone was happy
but he was thinking of Cuba and her daring rhythms ...
And one evening he missed, the last bus
every two kilometers, a light bulb
all that dark didn't scare him
as he walked, he thought about his he future of him ...
And then came the war ... that all dreams take away
the war in every letter, in every photograph
And then came the war, always different, always the same
the war where everything is a little grayer, even the sea
And then came the war, which all dreams take away
the real war the one without irony
The real war, the fake war
the war that the fantastic uncle is not there
tells
The fake war, the real war
the war that the fantastic uncle who knows where he was
The real war, the fake war
the war that in the end you never know that he has won it!
The fake war, the real war
the war that the fantastic uncle who knows where he was
