Io e un mio amico
delle volte ci troviamo
e ci diciamo che:
quelli come noi
che son venuti su un po' strani
e hanno avuto sempre
poche donne per le mani
e covano le loro solitudini
in segreto quasi con gelosia
lasciandosi un po' andare
solo davanti al vino forte di un bicchiere.
Quelli come noi
così timidi e ambiziosi
piuttosto silenziosi
e sempre con la testa piena
di musica di arte e grandi amori
e solo poche volte fan festa
e spesso invece cantano
perchè non hanno è quello che gli resta
Quelli come noi
che non valgono niente
quelli come noi
che non gli si darebbe un soldo
Invece,
quelli come noi
diciamo che valgono molto
e basterà che un giorno
trovino un po' di forza
e aiuteranno gli altri a dare un calcio al mondo
e prenderanno a pugni il Re e lo Stato
calpesteranno il dio per cui ogni libertà si fa peccato.
Perchè,
quelli come noi
non han rispetto per nessuno
non credono più a niente
e solo hanno il difetto
di essere nati un giorno tra i vigliacchi
tra i vinti dalla forza della vita
e di scordarselo soltanto
davanti a una bottiglia ormai finita.
