Monetine [English translation]

I sell any kind of word

I keep some

but i don't care about all the others

I sort pocket-money to fling to the bottom of a well

or to scratch the golden coating of a multi-millionaire prize-winnig competition

distrust from forgers

and don't blame me if you give them money

I don't have fault

if you're slave of a bingo

bulging with treasures that it distribute randomly

and the idea of getting the prize cuddles you

to rest on one's laurels

it happens

every sunday

and if you haven't won till now

you've been unlucky, friend

try again

i sell bet about future

some win a lot

but i don't care about all the others

and there are no merit

no hierarchy

but just the blind mechanism of a...

lottery!

And i couldn't do anything but adjust myself

i can't complain

if you use my money instead of weapons

if you bet all your dreams on this game

i just sell another illusion

and that's not little

A pocket-money to me

One for you

a pocket-money even to you

like this they're three

A pocket-money for this evening that just can't end

one to find you

and the other one to disappear

A pocket-money for you

one for you

another pocket-money even for you

so they're six

A pocket-money to know

that i ddn't choose the wrong world

Now, i count them again

Otherwise i'll get confused

20...21...28...

Totip, Enalotto*

if i cant manage to hit the big prize

i go all-out on Bingo

I'm still sure

that even if i don't win

it's just a matter of time

then terno, quaderna, cinquina**

if i win a buy an house over the hills

a good car and three till of rum

If i win i offer a drink to everyone

tequila bum bum!

I'm impartial and i don't meddle

If you win you take it all

if you lose it's just some pocket-money

The risk is the lowest

what's at stake is high

thake a money, friend, and scratch

Believe it, try it

You could do tirtheen***

if you make over your turn now you're crazy, think about it!

Your destiny is twisting

Now! you've been unlucky friend

try again!

A pocket-money to me

One for you

a pocket-money even to you

like this they're three

A pocket-money for this evening that just can't end

one to find you

and the other one to disappear

A pocket-money for you

one for you

another pocket-money even for you

so they're six

A pocket-money to be able to

give you what you asked me

One for the trip

It's still not all

One for the Chiapas

One for Filippo who left for Caracas

millions of money for the dream of a land after the sea

for whom keep sailing in spite of everything

A pocket-money for China

One for the bridge over Messina strict****

Hoping that the heat in the Sicilian country

Could liquefy the mist that is always in Val Padana*****

A money

at least one, a money against bad luck

a money

please a money and then i go away!

A money

at least one, a money against bad luck
