Un animale sconosciuto che gira per la casa,
i gesti incomprensibili e l'aria misteriosa,
io lo osservo, lo studio, vorrei proprio conoscerlo meglio,
sto parlando di mio figlio.
Allevato da padre perfetto
trascorreva intervalli felici
cronometrando il mondo,
cosciente e stupefatto.
Dietro i suoi occhi assorti e strani
c'è un po' dell'indifferenza dei marziani,
di chi divide il proprio affetto
tra il computer e il suo gatto
con un inspiegabile armonia,
senza uno scoppio illogico di gioia,
senza nemmeno un riso un po' improvviso,
senza neanche la paura della noia.
Ma al contrario di chi è insoddisfatto
lui mantiene il suo proprio equilibrio
cronometrando il mondo,
cosciente e stupefatto.
Senza gli slanci o le passioni ardenti,
senza la smania dei grossi mutamenti,
che forse cose come queste
lui le ha già vissute o viste
attraverso gli occhi degli eroi,
forse è uno scherzo della fantascienza,
forse è la prova di una razza nuova
che fa nascere il sospetto dell'assenza.
Così estraneo persino al suo tempo,
lui mantiene il suo proprio equilibrio
cronometrando il mondo.
Io vorrei almeno sentirti vicino
in qualche sentimento uguale ai miei
magari nei deliri che non vedo o che non hai,
io vorrei almeno poterti incontrare
in qualche antica forma di ironia,
nel cuore, nella voglia di cambiare
o in qualche nostra idea,
ma quasi certamente il diciassette e il sessantotto
per lui sono soltanto numeri del lotto!
Allevato da padre perfetto
trascorreva intervalli felici
cronometrando il mondo...
Giorgio Gaber (pseudonym of Giorgio Gaberscik; 1937-2000) was an Italian singer-songwriter, playwright, actor, cabaret artist, guitarist and theatre director, considered one of the most important artists in Italian entertainment and music since the Second World War. Born in Milan to a family of Slovene origin, Gaber approached music at a young age, performing in Milanese venues and collaborating with some jazz musicians. In 1960 he debuted as a singer-songwriter at the Sanremo Music Festival with the song "Il mio nome è", achieving modest success. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Gaber established himself as one of the most original and innovative singer-songwriters on the Italian scene, characterized by committed lyrics and experimental musicality. He collaborated with various artists, including Enzo Jannacci and Gino Paoli, and participated in numerous music festivals. Among his most representative songs are "La canzone del sole", "Il mio amico", "L'uomo che non c'è" and "Non ho paura". Gaber also dedicated himself to theatre direction, staging both his own works and those of other authors. His artistic career was marked by a strong social and political commitment, expressed through his songs and theatrical performances. Giorgio Gaber died in Milan in 2000 at the age of 63.
