Boogie

(original)
Due note e il ritornello
Era già nella pelle di quei due
E il corpo di lei mandava vampate africane
Lui sembrava un coccodrillo…
I saxes spingevano a fondo
Come ciclisti gregari in fuga
E la canzone andava avanti
Sempre più affondata nell’aria…
Quei due continuavano
Da lei saliva afrore di coloniali
Che giungevano a lui
Come da una di quelle drogherie di una volta
Che tenevano la porta aperta
Davanti alla primavera…
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
Qualcuno nei paraggi
Cominciava a starnutire
Il ventilatore ronzava immenso
Dal soffitto esausto…
I saxes ipnotizzati…
Dai movimenti di lei si spandevano
Rumori di gomma e di vernice
Da lui di cuoio…
Le luci saettavano
Sul volto pechinese della cassiera
Che fumava al mentolo
Altri starnutivano senza malizia
E la canzone andava elegante
L’orchestra era partita
Decollava…
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
I musicisti
Un tutt’uno col soffitto
E il pavimento…
Solo il batterista nell’ombra
Guardava con sguardi cattivi…
Quei due danzavano bravi
Una nuova cassiera sostituiva la prima
Questa qui aveva gli occhi da lupa
E masticava caramelle alascane
Quella musica continuava
Era una canzone che diceva e non diceva…
L’orchestra si dondolava come un palmizio
Davanti a un mare venerato…
Quei due sapevano a memoria
Dove volevano arrivare…
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
Un quinto personaggio esitò
Prima di starnutire
Poi si rifugiò nel nulla…
Era un mondo adulto
Si sbagliava da professionisti…
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
(translation)
Two notes and the refrain
It was already in the skin of those two
And her body was sending out African flashes
He looked like a crocodile ...
The saxes pushed hard
Like gregarious cyclists on the run
And the song went on
More and more sunk in the air ...
Those two continued
The smell of colonials rose from her
That came to him
Like from one of those old grocery stores
That held the door open
Before spring ...
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
Someone nearby
He was starting to sneeze
The fan hummed immensely
From the exhausted ceiling ...
The hypnotized saxes ...
From her movements they spread
Noises of rubber and paint
From him of leather ...
The lights flashed
On the Pekingese face of the cashier
Who smoked menthol
Others sneezed without malice
And the song was elegant
The orchestra had left
It took off ...
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
The musicians
One with the ceiling
And the floor ...
Only the drummer in the shadows
He looked with evil looks ...
Those two danced well
A new cashier replaced the first
This one had the eyes of a she-wolf
And she chewed Alascan candy
That music continued
It was a song that said and didn't say ...
The orchestra swayed like a palm tree
In front of a revered sea ...
Those two knew by heart
Where did they want to go ...
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
A fifth character hesitated
Before sneezing
Then she took refuge in nowhere ...
It was an adult world
He was wrong as professionals ...
Boogie woogie
Boogie woogie
