Il matto del paese


Ecco l'ho visto, lui è tornato
vestito scuro e sguardo segreto
si muove libero, senza parlare
e come un'ombra rincorsa dal sole
da dove arriva, da dove spunta
esce dal mare o dalla coscienza
capelli candidi, bocca di ghiaccio
cosa vuole, che cosa vorrà

L'hanno intravisto, l'hanno additato
faccia scavata, avrà mai mangiato
ascolta musica a ritmo lento
e con le braccia dirige anche il vento
E da' fastidio questa sua calma
e ognuno pensa perché non parla
se non dimentica, se non rimuove
e osserva tutti, a chi sparerà

Il volto è magico, sembra un attore
sembra un giullare che ha perso il nome
cammina lento come a cercare
un passo che non ricorda più
Danza sull'anima il suo silenzio
e mentre soffri lui è contento
esce dal buio, da quello specchio
e sputa in faccia la verità

"...Ah, questa vita che ci muove
ah, questa vita che ci da'
se arriva il matto di ogni paese
la vita in testa e addosso vi cadrà..."

Il volto è magico, sembra un attore
sembra un giullare che ha perso il nome
cammina lento come a cercare
un passo che non ricorda più
Danza sull'anima il suo silenzio
e mentre soffri lui è contento
esce dal buio, da quello specchio
chi è quel vecchio, ma che vorrà?

"...Ah, questa vita che ci muove
ah, questa vita che ci da'
se arriva il matto di ogni paese
la vita in testa e addosso vi cadrà..."

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
