Tarantola d'Africa [English translation]

I am the African tarantula

I smile while thinking ugly thoughts

Inside my cage of plexiglas

To protect you from me and my venom

Free, they say that I know how to kill you while watching you

But you pay for your ticket to look at me

Then you'll be able to want me dead or love me

You will see how it goes

Holding on tightly to the hand of your dad

You go go go, go go go

And what happens inside

If the heart is too thirsty

And outside you enjoy yourself, but no one asks me

How easy it is to think of the sun

As a distraction

And maturing my pain

I transform into an attraction

Captured by my distraction

A choice or a command

Repeat to me with conviction

That life here would be better

But the best does not resist

And how beautiful is it, how sad is it

To forget that pain exists

That pain exists

You are the most beautiful ladybird

You smile while watching everyone

Perhaps no one will ever observe you

But sometimes this means less

A lot less

Idiot, they say

Treat yourself to a different tree

Fall asleep between its branches and its leaves

You don't know anymore whether to continue or satisfy yourself

You will see how it goes

Holding on tightly to the hand of your dad

You go go go, go go

And what happens inside

If the heart is too thirsty

And outside you enjoy yourself, but no one asks me

How easy it is to think of the sun

As a distraction

And maturing my pain

I transform into an attraction

Captured by my distraction

A choice or a command

Repeat to me with conviction

That life here would be better

But the best does not resist

And how beautiful is it, how sad is it

To forget that pain exists

That pain exists

But you pay for your ticket to look at me

Then you'll be able to want me dead or love me

You will see how it goes

Holding on tightly to the hand of your dad

Holding on tightly to the hand of your dad
