Melancholy: everyone is cornered, everyone is crying,
everyone hits rock-bottom like Andrea Doria [, the boat].
People working [hard] don’t have a dwelling, they lost the shirt off their back, not like Borat.
People are lonely, drink [alcohol] and then stifle like John Bonham.
The [local] council is more deaf than Beethoven when he composed the 9th Symphony.
And think that Dante said that this is the beautiful country where “si” is heard.
A diploma was enough to pay the charges: you didn’t need to be a celebrity, neither to be famous,
nor to throw yourself into politics with a Ilona Staller [Female Pornstar] curriculum.
Coffe doesn’t taste like coffee, but more like coffee with potassium cyanide.
But then, everyone goes away from this country. Everyone escapes from this country.
You don’t notice it but everyone goes away from this country.
But then, everyone goes away from this country. Everyone escapes from this country.
You don’t notice it but everyone goes away from this country.
Goodbye Melancholy!
How did you become like this?
Goodbye Melancholy!
Tell me who made you change like that.

Goodbye Melancholy!
Tell me who made you change your mood like that.
Brain drain. Money Drain. Migrants migrating from the shore.
This is Melancholy, [a country] where [everyone screams] “[make him] saint immediately” and [full of] leeches,
The country [kissed by] the sun, nowadays is the country of the UVA rays.
It is not just an impression, the set-up is deep serious, deeper than a tuba.
How can the remaining people survive? Their hands are tied like Andromeda.
Here each situation gets tougher and tougher, like the diplomatic relations between Washington and Teheran.
The aging worsen the whole set-up, you get grumpy like Gary Coleman.
Put your wrath in your suitcase and escape from Melancholy.
Anyhow, everyone goes away from this country. Everyone escapes from this country.
You don’t notice it but everyone goes away from this country.
But then, everyone goes away from this country. Everyone escapes from this country.
You don’t notice it but everyone goes away from this country.
Goodbye Melancholy!

Goodbye Malincònia
Maybe tomorrow, I hope we find tomorrow
Goodbye Malincònia
Hope did we get here, how did it get this far
Goodbye Malincònia
We had it all, fools we let it slip away
Goodbye Malincònia
Tell me who made you change your mood like that.
Every step was out of place
and in this world we fell from grace
Looking back we lost our way
an innocent time we all betrayed
And in time can we all learn,
not to crawl away and burn
Stand up and don't fall down
Be a king for a day,
in man we all pray!
Uuh, we all pray!
