Urna [English translation]

Urn, urn, uuh

Put me in the urn, urn, uuh

Cinerary urn, put me in the funerary urn

Ballot box 1, put me in the pussy urn 2

68: cooked donkey 3

47: 4 death comes, silent as a moose 5

Separates the livings with the swing of a scythe

(She comes, silent as a moose)

(She separates, with the swing of a scythe)

Foscolo 6 said it, I reiterate

The sepulchre is the fulcrum of life

(Fulcrum, sepulchre)

(Fulcrum, I reiterate it's a sepulchre)

And there's something in the air 7

Telling me that I'm going to perish

Sooner or later, I know it's going to happen

But I'm not worried

There's only one thing I desire

I want a respectable tomb

(When death will come to reap me)

A clean, durable tomb

(Which will protect me from humidity)

([Death will] reap me)

And now, for the most cultured

Some verses from the poem "I sepolcri", by Ugo Foscolo:

"Only he who shall not leave loved ones behind

Shall find few joy in his urn"

Urn, urn, uuh

Put me in the urn, urn, uuh

And there's something in the air

(Something in the air)

Telling me that I'm going to die

(You can't die inside, no) 8

There's a slag in my body

(As Gianni Bella said) 9

In my large intestine

In my small intestine, in my duodenum

(Father Luca)

I feel in my body slags undermining me

(Baby Fuca)

I hear the Man from Japan 10

Telling me: "Ufo Robot, Ufo Robot" 11

It turns into a missile-rocket 12

With thousand-vacuum tube circuits

Sprints among the stars and flies away

(Sprints among the stars and flies away)

Eats math books

Cybernetic salad and it repeats

"16, the butt" (the butt) 13

But as I'm talking, you're not listening to me

There are two cases: either you don't love me anymore, or you're dead

I'm inclined to the second scenario

Because you have a nauseating stench

So I think you want a

Respectable, respectable, respectable tomb

(Because death has come, and she has reaped you)

A clean, durable tomb

(Which will protect you from humidity)

Urn, urn, uuh

Put me in the urn, urn, uuh

Urn, urn, uuh

Put me in the urn, urn, uuh

Cinerary urn

Put me in the funerary urn

Ballot box

Put me in the pussy urn

Love, love

Yes, you must put me in the urn

Put me in, put me in the urn

77, s'vnty-s'vn: women's legs 14

23: a tram

24: another tram

96: a bus (ha ha ha!) 15

15: the everlasting love which unites a couple for many, infinite years 16

64: the age of Bellugi 17

12. this part is a reference to the Italian "Ufo Robot" opening theme song.13. according, once again, to the Neapolitan "Smorfia".14. in this case, the number is associated to this particular meaning because of the resemblance of the two 7s to a pair of legs.15. joke aside, 96 is not even one of the numbers used in the Italian lottery.16. this verse makes little sense.17. if it's a reference to Mauro Bellugi, Italian former soccer player, it's wrong: Bellugi was 64 in 2014, and not in 1991 (the year this song was published).
