Un posto per il vecchio c'è
non fa questioni e lava la sua roba
la luce qui si spegne alle ventitré
non sarà mai come nei bar di Manila.
Un posto per il vecchio c'è
la maglia con su scritto "Casa del marinaio"
non lo decidi mica da te
ti trovi un copertone al posto del cuore, oh no, no
e che finisse così sembrava impossibile
ma sono qui.
E Lola e Linda e
il bar dei negri e
lo squalo bianco e me
che adesso ho più paura
e Lola e Linda e
lontano e caldo '23
e l'acquavite, la notte sulla spiaggia
e latte la mattina.
A me resta una conchiglia
di lei che ne sarà?
Un posto per il vecchio c'è
ha una conchiglia che gli schiaccia il cuore
non lo decidi mica da te
ti senti a posto un po' come un fiore
in un bordello di Hong-Kong
e che finisse così sembrava impossibile
ma sono qui.
E poi la guerra e
tornammo in tanti, tutti quelli come me
la moglie nuova è stanca
ha un figlio grande
che non mista a sentire
e allora un posto c'è
per ciò che resta di un marinaio
con una conchiglia che
gli sta schiacciando il cuore.
E Lola e Linda e
e Lola e Linda danzatrici da caffè
la moglie bianca, il tempo
una conchiglia che mi schiaccia il cuore.
