Si 'na fotografia 'e 20 anne fa,
pecchè me fai vedè quann'er'
piccerillo comm'a tte',
e mentre crisce n'atu poco 'e cchiù
'a vita se fa vecchia 'ncuoll' a mme'.
Cchiù tiempo te vuless' regalà,
ma che ce pozzo fa,
si quann' m'arretiro duorme già,
'a musica 'e 'sta voce pe cantà
s'arrobb' 'o tiempo e ce fa alluntanà.
E staje male si 'a dummeneca 'a matina
vire 'e pate 'nzieme 'e figli co 'o pallone,
pe dispietto si telefono 'a luntano tu
pe nun me fa durmì te miett'a chiagnere.
E dint'a chella lettera 'e Natale
tutte 'e prumesse scritte nun mantiene,
'o stesso si terribile int'a scola e poi
sempe cchiù scustumato cu mammà.
Forse si me tenisse cchiù vicino
E cocche vot' 'a sera int'o lettino
Cu mme' facisse 'a guerra co 'o cuscino tu
nun me verisse pate pe mità.
Se fa sempe cchiù difficile a fa pace,
te faje gruoss' e cchiù stu pate nun te piace.
Dint'a tutt' 'e compleann' tu vuliss' a mme'
Stutanno 'e candeline insieme a tte'.
E dint'a chella lettera 'e Natale
tutte 'e prumesse scritte nun mantiene,
'o stesso si terribile int'a scola e poi
sempe cchiù scustumato cu mammà.
Forse si me tenisse cchiù vicino
E cocche vot' 'a sera int'o lettino
Cu mme' facisse 'a guerra co 'o cuscino tu
nun me verisse pate pe mità
