Αισιοδοξία

Who lives in a shack, who sweats his salary
who loves the love and glory's dreams.
Who robs pensions, who has short memory
who eats once, who throws to the target.
Who wants the [pay]rise, who plays to Sanremo
who has glasses, who goes under a train.
Who loves his aunt, who goes to Porta Pia
who finds discounted, who as he has found

But the sky is always bluer uh uh uh uh
but the sky's always bluer uh uh uh uh...
Who dreams millions, who gambles
who plays with threads, who acts like an indian
Who is a farm-worker, who sweeps the courts
who steals, who fights, who tells on
na na na na na na na na
But the sky is always bluer uh uh uh uh
but the sky's always bluer uh uh uh uh
Who has hired by the Zecca, who fails
who has some inner crisis, who digs deep in the hearts.
Who is a palm-reader, who reigns sovereign
who perspires, who fights, who eats once.
Who hasn't got a house, who lives alone
who hasn't a good salary, who plays with the fire.
Who lives in Calabria, who lives on love
who made war, who takes sixty cent. (at university),
who arrives to eighty cent., who dies at the work.

Who's wrong, who's right, who is Napoleon.
Who shouts "stop thief!", who has got an anti-theft device
who has painted a painting, who's a wall-writing.
Who reacts instinctively, who's a looser, who's a winner
who eats once, who wants the [pay]rise.
Who changes his boat happy and glad
who as he has found, who all things considered.

who has died cuz of envy or of jealously.

who writes poems, who eats some potatoes
Who only sometimes drinks, who every nights

But the sky is always bluer,
