Strano questo sogno
ero in una città
dal palazzo di vetro esce un cow-boy
dal fiume Volga arriva lo zar
L'uomo di Bagdad prese in pugno tutta la città
facendo finta di niente, prese la città
Là sulla piazza sono in tre
ognuno vuole diventare il Re
quei tre hanno l'odio nel cuor che mai succederà
E' un'ora di paura
e la gente lo sa
c'è chi piange con me poiché il domani tuo lo decidono
solo quei tre.
Fredde facce di cera
che non parlano più
in quel triangolo c'è la nostra vita che...
oscilla appesa, appesa al cuore dei tre.
L'uomo di Bagdad punta il cannone dritto sul cow-boy
e c'è una lunga lama che brilla in mano dello zar...
e la pistola del cow-boy
ha completato quella scena a tre... chissà...
chissà se domani per noi il sole splenderà...
E' un'ora di punta
ma la gente non sa:
se è meglio avere paura delle armi chimiche
o di chiuder l'auto nel box
Forse è meglio crepare
che a piedi restar
chi piangeva con me ora pregando sta'
che si avvicini l'ora di sparar
L'uomo di Bagdad non ha più nessuna via d'uscita ormai
le bombe di tutto il mondo sono su di lui
non ha più niente da mangiar
e liberare deve la città
se vuole che il popolo suo si salvi insieme a lui.
Strano questo sogno
sembra un incubo ma
ma ho paura che risvegliandomi
poi mi spaventi ancora di più.
Di gioia piange la gente
libera è la città
le armi chimiche sono distrutte ormai
e i pozzo neri tornano a fiorir.
Tutto il modo felice e contento ora può tornar
a risucchiare il petrolio dell'arabica città
da cui ritorna sgorgar
l'inquinamento per l'umanità si sa
così più nessuno di noi a piedi resterà
perché ognuno con la sua auto al cimitero andrà
e sarà questa la vera "Terza guerra mondiale".
