R. Gregory’s Perception (6:11)
Music by Brunello, Colman, De Marchi, Indriolo, Schimd
Lyrics by Brunello, Indriolo
Lyrics
Smile at the Book on your bedside table.
unroll the rug along the straight line,
be careful not to break the arachnoid elephant,
give heed to the actor who isn’t a pilot anymore.
It’s a wrong way to be loved if you want the wedding day,
engage your daughter to a very rich young man.
Marry your heir to a very rich old lady.
Don’t wear spoiled clothes, kiss the hands,
“shut up”, “no holidays for Christmas”,
this doesn’t distinguish yourself, “I’m the engine…”,
“…I’m the engine of this train…”,
“…blast…”
CH. I don’t need a symbol For my God, I don’t take a vote.
He doesn’t have a great interest for one hanged wood,
for a wall erected with blood.
I don’t need to kiss the hand,
the fruits of one’s labours shall arrive.
I marry my love in front of my God,
when I’ll be sure I don’t love her money.
Consolation is not in the knitting of a carpet.
Paper and ink can’t forgive you.
You seem to care too much about the marble!
“Everything is a vicious circle”,
“If You’re wrong, You’re forced to continue to make mistakes…”,
“Daddy’s back!”, “Don’t be misleaded by,
the flowers on the balcony… there’s smell of welding”
CH. I don’t need a symbol For my God, I don’t take a vote.
He doesn’t have a great interest for one hanged wood,
for a wall erected with blood.
I don’t need to kiss the hand,
the fruits of one’s labours shall arrive.
I marry my love in front of my God,
when I’ll be sure I don’t love her money.
