Pigliate 'na pastiglia [English translation]

I walk every night

I walk deliriously

I'm not tired anymore

I don't shut my eyes anymore

And I don't drink coffee

Chorus: Go to sleep, listen to me!

Go to sleep, listen to me!

A window closes shut

A lamp lights up

And a drunk says

knocking on the door

"Can you open the door for me, Cunce?"

Three months and I haven't slept

I would like to forget a mouthful

People, tell how can I do it?

Chorus: Take a pill!

Take a pill,

Listen to me!

Becuase it makes me sleep

It makes me forget

My sweet love

Chorus: Take a pill!

Take a pill,

Listen to me!

Because it makes me feel

Like a great commander

And it intoxicates my heart!

In the windows of all the pharmacies,

The old chamomile is expired

To the balls of glycerolphosphate

bromotelevisionato (?)

.003 grams

Ah!

Chorus: Take a pill!

Listen to me!

In the dark is a cat

Chewing on a sardine

Sweetly sweetly it looks at me

it looks at me, rubs itself,

meows and tells me:

Chorus: Listen to me, go to sleep!

Listen to me, go to sleep!

I am a overworked donkey

overworked by love

That pulls this heart

This hear, that looks for

Happiness!

Three months and I haven't slept

I would like to forget a mouthful

People tell me, how do I do it?

Chorus: Take a pill!

In the windows of all the pharmacies,

The old chamomile is expired

To the balls of glycerolphosphate

bromotelevisionato (?)

bicarbonato,

talcum powder and linseed,

cataplasm and semolina

A florentine steak,

mortadella and two sandwiches

With a half liter of wine

A coffee with caffeine

.003 grams

Ah!

Take a pill!

Listen to me!
