Bimbiminkia4life [English translation]

*1

Eooh eoohooh

Eooh eoohooh

It's better never to grow up

Eooh eoohooh

We're noobs4life

Eooh eoohooh

"Today's youngsters are worthless"

Said the old men of Nice about Garibaldi 2

You say your daughter listens to trash music

But then you get emotional listening to "People from Ibiza" 3

Nobody really grows up

They all pretend

I won't give up to you

How do you call a noob

When he becomes an old geezer? Geeznoob? 4

A scumbag always acting cool

Always a commie pest for the rightists 5

They beat me up at the lefties community centre 6

When I wetted the feminist's T-shirt

I was an unaware rebel

Young and dumb, proud of myself

Like the young girl that writes on Facebook

"Nirvana sucks, One Direction are better"

People feels humiliated if you insult them online

I sneak off like in Far Cry 7

I kick the door down - banzai!

And I steal the pie - American Pie 8

Life's too short to play by its rules

When one generation loses its fire

Would like to kick the next one in the butt

Bro, 9 nothing new

And then you meet your old classmates

And you're sure those were some glorious times

Eooh eoohooh

It's better never to grow up

Eooh eoohooh

We're noobs4life

Eooh eoohooh

We're noobs4life

Eooh eoohooh

Even oxygen is becoming too commercial

You're going to fail at school for lung failure 10

I know that everyone has a story to tell

That's why I rarely leave home

We'll end up hanging out in a suite at the last floor of the Plaza Hotel 11

We'll get some cliché breaded and fried with hot air 12

Dumb people's mother watches "16 and pregnant" 13

What people won't do to be trendy

President Renzi cares more about selfies than about laws 14

Two generations, but they're never been so similar

Biscardi speaks Italian like Justin Bieber 15

Your son with the rapper, you with the football player

He kicks balls, you used to kick footballs

Do you want to make a comparison?

Between yours and theirs idols there's something in common

Don't say "there's not", can't you see it?

What? What?

When Rocco Siffredi was young he was a pornoob 16

History repeats itself, it multiplies

The father pontificates

The son notifies

But "I don't want to grow up"

As Brunetta said

(No, this is too lame, wait) 17

"I don't want to grow up"

Someone says

When we'll be old, we'll use an app to hoe the ground 18

Eooh eoohooh

It's better never to grow up

Eooh eoohooh

We're noobs4life

Eooh eoohooh

It's better never to grow up

Eooh eoohooh

We're noobs4life

Because when you grow up you forget

(it's better never to grow up)

How important it is to make big mistakes

(we're noobs4life)

You hate young people, but, uh

I know that down under you're just envious

(yeah yeah)

Because it's like they're there to show to you

You don't know the names of new bands

You don't understand new trends and slang

I don't give up

And I don't let anyone go ahead of me

Like a noob4life

But then you meet your old classmates

And you're sure those were some glorious times

[chorus]
