Com'è profondo il mare [English translation]

We are we, we are so many

We hide at night

For the fear of the motorists

Of the linotypists

We are black cats

We are the pessimists

We are the bad thoughts

And we have nothing to eat

How deep is the sea

How deep is the sea

Daddy, you we are great hunter

of quails and pheasants

Get rid of these flies

That won't let me sleep

That make me mad

How deep is the sea

How deep is the sea

It's useless

There no work anymore

There no dignity anymore

God or somebody on his behalf

Is trying to divide us

To hurt us

To let us drown

How deep is the sea

How deep is the sea

With the power of blackmailing

The man became somebody

Resurrected even the dead

Opened the prisons

Blocked six trains

With connected cars

Lifted for a moment the poor

To a role that is difficult to keep

Then he let him fall

To cry and to scream

Right in the middle of the sea

How deep is the sea

Then from one scream

Became a drum

The the poor like a lightning

Safe in the sky

Started a war

To conquer

That pathetic land

That in its great heart

Had to grom

How deep is the sea

How deep is the sea

But the land

Was taken away from him

Including what remained on it
