Border jam


Il confine, il confine, il confine, il confine
Da un lato l'inizio, dall'altro la fine
È un filo di ferro coperto di spine
È una striscia di sangue sulle cartine

È un taglio cucito da mani imbrattate di terra
È una cicatrice che resta dopo una guerra
È un filo di bava di un mostro a tre teste
Non ferma l'amore, non ferma la peste

C'è un opposto ai confini che ho attraversato
Mostrando un documento sono decollato
E atterrato ho aspettato il bagaglio sul nastro
Sputato in un ingresso dipinto alabastro
E poi ho preso un taxi con il vetro rotto
La crepa disegnava ragnatele sul lunotto

Ci sono sognatori come me
Che ogni volta che passano un confine
Si chiedono, si chiedono perché
Se un giorno finirà, perché un giorno finirà

Faremo festa, anzi, facciamola già
Facciamola ora, facciamola qua
Facciamo festa ora, facciamola già
Immaginando il tempo che verrà

Sulle rovine di un vecchio confine
Sarà una jam fino alla fine
Lungo le notti, verso le mattine
Come dei matti, come dei gatti

A piedi scalzi, false Adidas, è tutto così strano
È tutto vicinissimo, è tutto lontano
A distanza di una firma, di un prezzo, di una tempesta
Del un lampo di una TV che dentro un bar mi buca la testa

Le serie che raccontano i poveri e la ricchezza
Che mostra la sua faccia attraente come un'ebbrezza
L'odore di vita è forte, si mischia all'odore di morte
Prevale sulle parole e allunga le cose corte

Passa dai muri e butta giù le porte
Passa dai muri e butta giù le porte

Ci sono sognatori come me
Che ogni volta che passano un confine
Si chiedono, si chiedono perché
Se un giorno finirà, perché un giorno finirà

Faremo festa, anzi, facciamola già
Facciamola ora, facciamola qua
Faremo festa, anzi, facciamola già
Facciamola ora, facciamola qua

Sulle rovine di un vecchio confine
Sarà una jam fino alla fine
Lungo le notti, verso le mattine
Come dei matti, come dei gatti

Come dei gatti al Colosseo
Sulle rovine faremo un corteo
Come Duchessa, come Romeo
Miao, miao, miao, miao, miao, miao, miao

Come Bob Marley, come James Brown
Come John Lennon, senti che sound
Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Fiorello e la Carrà
Come Mercedes Sosa, Miriam Makeba, Roden
Luxemburg Adrian, Yanez e Galiano
Coltrane, Ester, Lakuti, Strummer, Ornella Muti
Bud Spencer e Terence Hill, la bionda di Kill Bill
Pinocchio e Mano Negra, tutta la gente allegra
Come i Blues Brothers, tutti diversi
Senza i confini, tutti un po' persi negli universi

Miao, miao, miao, miao, miao, miao, miao
Come dei gatti, come dei matti
Miao, miao, miao, miao, miao, miao, miao
Come dei matti, come dei gatti

Biografia

Jovanotti, real name Lorenzo Cherubini (Rome, September 27, 1966), is an Italian singer-songwriter considered one of the most influential figures in contemporary Italian music. His career began in the 1980s, launched by Claudio Cecchetto, and was characterized by a blend of rap and world music, always interpreted in an hip hop and funky style. Over the years, Jovanotti has progressively evolved his musical style, moving closer to the Italian songwriting tradition with lyrics that address philosophical, religious, and political themes. Alongside his musical career, Jovanotti has distinguished himself for his strong social and political commitment. A convinced pacifist, he has collaborated with organizations such as Emergency, Amnesty International, the Anti-Vivisection League (LAV), Nigrizia, and Data. He participated in demonstrations against public debt in the 1990s and in the movements No Excuses and Make Poverty History, taking part in Live8. Among his most representative songs are "My Girl", "Without Fear", "The Postman", "Boy of the Sea" and "The Essential".
