Charley

Formerly there was someone around, quite a long time ago,
somebody, who called himself Charley, only few will still know.
Some others, I am sure, will remember him quite well,
his sneakiness and rage they feared like fire down in hell.
 
Sometimes he stayed for some weeks, then he vanished for a year.
Salt on his skin and suntanned, with freshly bleached out hair,
all of a sudden, strong as ever, he came back after a while.
For us boys he was the king, parents thought him full of guile.
 
Everybody recognized how nice his floral shirt dressed him,
with holes, burned with a cigarette, with coal black charred rims.
We thought these holes were bullet holes, we really had no doubt,
and the pharmacist's son got an eye on it and checked it out.
 
He bought Charley's floral shirt at an outrageous price,
and he wore it, dirty as it was, with its holes and special spice.
For sure the guy believed that he just had to wear the thing,
and so Charley's strength and beauty would be transferred to him.
 
Because of Charley, young girls left their homes without permit,
he took it all for granted, did not care too much 'bout it.
Not only wild and naughty girls were chasing after him,
even good girls and grey wallflowers got hot, where he was seen.
 
I saw one of them walk closely past him, several times that night,
tightly pressing thighs together, when she came into his sight.
Later, as she could not have him, she pretended he was air,
and she took somebody else, who would blindly follow her.
 
This girl, what is more obvious, chose the bland guy as her spouse,
who inherited the pharmacy, recently I saw him by his house.
He looked different from back then - and it really is a shame -,
when Charley's tattered shirt had hung from his shaking frame.
 
Today his legs are bent, similar to rosy pigs,
inward like an X, under the weight of his broad hips,
and in the streets the children want to see him nude, and then
hear his knees both clap together, when he's walking straight past them.
 
Listen, Charley, what this guy told me, when we lately met!
He told me, you'd be just like him, so clean, gentle and fed.
You'd be no longer Charley, now Charles would be your name,
and everything run-off-the-mill, you took it as it came.
 
Well, Charley, what you do today is not my bus'ness, true,
but what a shame, someone like him can compare himself to you.
He who, though he yearned for it, has never been like you,
should not be allowed to spread, that you became like him, too.

Eternally





Always, you know, I’ll wait for you
If you call for me, I’ll come to you
As long as there’s a heartbeat I feel in my chest
It will be for you, only for you, my love!
 

Shhh! People
Wish for the harlequin show
The little song of fortune
Young lady, give a few coins to the parrot
Parrot, thank the lady
Shhh! People
The harlequin show is over
Parrot, parrot, let’s go home

Eternally





Destiny separated our lives
But even far apart, we’ll be close inside
This love of ours
Is strong and will never die!
 

In my dreams, I’ll see you still
Wherever you are, with you I will
And in the air and in the things
All around me here
You will be there
Only you
Always you
Always, you know, I’ll wait for you
If you call for me, I’ll come to you
As long as there’s a heartbeat
I feel in my chest
It will be for you
Only for you
My love!
 

Always, you know, I’ll wait for you
If you call for me, I’ll come to you
As long as there’s a heartbeat
I feel in my chest
It will be for you
Only for you
My love!

Eulalia Torricelli





The characters in this song
Were invented by the authors
If they resemble any real people
Please forgive us, dear folks
Here we’re talking about a certain lady
Who let herself be kissed one night
By a forest ranger
By the name of De Rossi Giosuè
 

You don’t know her
She has beautiful eyes
(Who?)
Eulalia Torricelli from Forlì
You don’t know her
She owns three castles
(Who?)
Eulalia Torricelli from Forlì
One castle for eating
One castle for sleeping
One castle for loving
For loving De Rossi Giosuè
You don’t know her
She has beautiful eyes
(Who?)
Eulalia Torricelli from Forlì
 

Second part, second act
Eulalia has no rest
She says to De Rossi, “Let’s talk to my mother”
But he replies, “Oh, let it go!”
Then things get complicated
They get tangled up, and you know why?
With the train heading to Puglia
De Rossi Giosuè left
 

Eulalia Torricelli wants to die
(Hey!)
And she eats Giosuè’s matchsticks
She writes a will and leaves her three castles
(Hey!)
To those who have no castles, like me!
One castle in Novaga
One castle in Chiaramello
The most beautiful castle of all
She leaves to Claudio Villa
Then she gently closes her beautiful eyes
(Who?)
Eulalia Torricelli from Forlì
 

One castle in Novaga
One castle in Chiaramello
The most beautiful castle of all
She leaves to yours truly
Then she gently closes her beautiful eyes
(Who?)
Eulalia Torricelli from Forlì
