Gli occhi di Shanghai - Live at Teatro Sociale Bellinzona

La scalamobile in staziun, sciüscia basei, sciüscia person
Me navi in gio cun la valisa di rimpiant
Vedi sü la bancheta, in fund, Mr.Canaja e i so cartun
E l′ünic libru che al po' lenc hin i so man...

E ul temp al va... Ma in duva al va?

E navi gio denta l′umbria cui fantasmi da traa via
A cercà un tren par carga denta ul mè passaa
Johnny Smurzet ma cascia via: "me l'hu fai ma te fal mia
Che quel tren ta la riporta sempru a cà..."

E ul tren al va... Ma in duva al va?

Shanghai! Shanghai!
Shanghai, öcc inscì i hu vist mai
Un rantul dal cöör, un emuziun che la m'ha dai
E me vurevi e duvevi nà a catai
Perché volevo, solo, gli occhi di Shanghai...

Miss Troia China da staziun cunt i öcc püsse prufund
In assee düü ghei par portat via da lì
E i henn bastaa anca düü segund par bütat gio da un punt
Par veec i tò öcc dumà par mi

E la vita va... Ma in duva la va?

Shanghai! Shanghai!
Shanghai, öcc inscì i hu vist mai
Un rantul dal cöör, un emuziun che la m′ha dai
E me vurevi e duvevi nà a catai
Perché volevo, solo, gli occhi di Shanghai...

Ma se gh′è sücedüü? A sun stai me o l'è stai lü
A smagià da ross ul negru dal catram?
E lee la parlava pü, e me ′na vöia da traa sü
Ma l'è tütt iscrivüü in dii mè man...

"Shanghai", e riessi mia a lavai...
"Shanghai", e riessi mia a lavai...

Shanghai! Shanghai!
Shanghai, öcc inscì i hu vist mai
Un rantul dal cöör, un emuziun che la m′ha dai
E me vurevi e duvevi mia smurzai
Perché volevo, solo, gli occhi di Shanghai

The Eyes of Shanghai - Live at Teatro Sociale Bellinzona

The escalator is in the station, cleaning shoes shoes, cleaning people
I sail down with a suitcase full of regrets
Do you see Mr. Canaja and his cardboard boxes on the bench at the back?
The only book that can soothe him are his hands...

And time goes by. But where is it going?

I sail down into the darkness with the ghosts to drive away
To find a train to load my past onto
Johnny Smurzet throws me out: "I did it for you but you're not making me do it
That train always takes you back home again..."

And the train goes by. But where is it going?

Shanghai! Shanghai!
Shanghai, eyes like that I've never seen
A thrill in my heart, an emotion it gave me
And I had to go and find them, I just had to
Because I wanted only the eyes of Shanghai...

Miss Troia China from the station with the deepest eyes
In just two days she was able to get me out of there
And two seconds were enough to throw me off a bridge
To see your eyes for me alone

And life goes by. But where is it going?

Shanghai! Shanghai!
Shanghai, eyes like that I've never seen
A thrill in my heart, an emotion it gave me
And I wanted and had to go and find them
Because I wanted only the eyes of Shanghai...

But what happened? Was it me or was it him,
Making the black of the tarmac red?
And she didn't speak any more, and I felt like throwing up
But it's all written on my hands...

"Shanghai," and I can't wash it away...
"Shanghai," and I can't wash it away...

Shanghai! Shanghai!
Shanghai, eyes like that I've never seen
A thrill in my heart, an emotion it gave me
And I wanted, I just had to go
Because I wanted only the eyes of Shanghai
