Serenata lacrimosa [English translation]

Ooh tearful serenade

Ooh on the church's steps

Ooh but who'll hear me?

The bishop has a microphone and I have nothing

And he'd only want one thing

For all of the women to dry

For making love to be a mistake

For branches to fall from the trees

And hearing him even God gets confused

Oh mum what are we going to do?

They tell us to live once dead and then come back to life

Oh mum what are we going to do?

They tell us to live once dead and then come back to life

Ooh tearful serenade

Ooh on the church's steps

Ooh this crucifix is now beaten to blood1

It wanted to get down and you didn't see it

In the river there's who swims upstream

There's who has too much and who has now nothing

Who drinks from sewers and who drinks from the stream

Who gifts a kiss to himself and who chooses a diamond

There's who gets married and who is a lover

Oh mum what are we going to do?

They tell us to live once dead and then come back to life

Oh mum what are we going to do?

They tell us to live once dead and then come back to life

Oh mum what are we going to do?

They tell us to live once dead and then come back to life

1. I couldn't find a translation for "s'è fatto er sangue pisto", it's literally "it made its blood beaten" but it doesn't make much sense.
