Con una faccia imprestata
Da un altro, che - se ti fa comodo
D altra parte vorresti la tua
Da offrire a quel pubblico,
Che ti guarda come a Carnevale
Si guarda una maschera,
Ma intanto sa che tu
Non sei cos
Perché la faccia che avevi
Una volta rimasta stampata qui
Nei tuoi modi di fare, nel tuo
Palpitare e distinguerti,
Nella vecchia passione,
Nella tentazione di essere,
Non piangere, coglione, ridi e vai
Ho nostalgia di un golf,
Un dolcissimo golf di lana blu,
C era dentro un ingenuo
Incantato da un artista fortissimo,
Stavi dietro le quinte, ingolfato
Di swing e di lacrime,
Non piangere, coglione, ridi e vai
