Lei passeggiò,
sulla strada accanto a me per un po'
senza dire neanche una parola
ed era strano,
strano quel suo modo di camminare
di evitare, come se inciampasse fra le alghe secche
e le conchiglie in riva al mare.
Poi mi parlò, all'improvviso in mezzo al sole
che franava da un palazzo
illuminandole i capelli.
Mi disse piano, piano
"Tu non sei certo come quelli,
tu sei gentile, sei diverso
ma se mi deluderai,
io non mi arrenderò
e sempre dritto in mezzo al cuore sparerò"
Poi mi disse ancora
mentre il vento gonfiava la sua gonna
"Sai, sono stata anche insieme ad una donna
ma tu mi puoi capire,
lo so è questione di tenerezza,
insicurezza o che ne so,
comunque non la scorderò...
Mio padre è andato,
si son divise le nostre strade
e lui è via,
lontano da me
e da mia madre
ma lei ci pensa a quel bastardo
ed io la sento singhiozzare
quando è sera,
quando è sola
quando è troppo sola
ma io no,
io non mi arrenderò
e sempre dritto in mezzo al cuore sparerò"
E non c'è posto per quelle come me,
prostitute della vita
ma è la gente, sai,
che me lo costringe a fare sparare
sempre dritto al cuore
sempre al cuore...
E ciao e via,
via sorridendo se n'è andata
ed io son qui al bar,
con una birra disperata
qui davanti al cielo di settembre
con le sue nuvole di perla così strane,
agitate, confuse proprio come lei,
proprio come lei,
come quella là che non si arrenderà
e sempre dritto in mezzo al cuore
dritto in mezzo al cuore sparerà.
