Ik zou willen dat de kijkers straks de tekst zouden kunnen verstaan. Want die is zo mooi.
I WANTED TO BE A TOUGH GUY
I wanted to be a tough guy
[one] who doesn't care about the future
A robot
a sumo wrestler
a dr*g-pusher running from a German Shepherd at Bologna train station
a golden goose.
But, I'm nobody
I wasn't born with a tough guy face
I'm even afraid of darkness.
If I get into a fight, I get beaten up
so that I get black eyes
But I've never wasted time,
it's time that has left me behind.
[Chorus]
"Living life is child's play"
my mum used to tell me
and I used to fall from the trees
The world is such a tough place
for ordinary folks
for those with little love around them
or too much sunlight against their glasses
I wanted to be a tough guy
who doesn't care about the future
A robot
a gold medalist at spitting
the purse-snatcher that waits for you in the dark
the king of Porta Portese
the magpie that steals your wedding ring
[Repeat the chorus]
I wanted to be a tough guy
But I'm nobody
[I'm a] white belt in judo
not a star, but a sneeze
[Bridge]
Sunflowers with glasses told me "beware of the light",
and that moons without craters are scams
'cause after all there's no point in running away from your fears.
Living life is child's play
[Guitar solo]
I wanted to be a tough guy
But I'm nobody
I'm no other than Lucio
I'm no other than Lucio
IT'S GREYSIE IT'S PARTY
