Lyrics
Il Re Del Mondo
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Strano come il rombo degli aerei
da caccia un tempo,
stonasse con il ritmo delle piante
al sole sui balconi...
e poi silenzio... e poi, lontano
il tuono dei cannoni; a freddo...
e dalle radio dei segnali in codice.
Vn giorno in cielo, fuochi di Bengala...
Ia Pace ritornò
ma il Re del Mondo,
ci tiene prigioniero il Cuore.
Nei vestiti bianchi a ruota...
Echi delle Danze Sufi...
Nelle metro giapponesi, oggi,
macchine d'Ossigeno.
Più diventa tutto inutile
e più credi che sia vero
e il giorno della Fine
non ti servirà l'Inglese.
...E sulle Biciclette verso Casa,
la Vita ci sfiorò
ma il Re del Mondo
ci tiene prigioniero il Cuore.
