Libero: "A Firenze sono i rossi a picchiare".

 



Adattamento da The man from Daily Mail.


Now Florence is a very funny place, sir:
it's a proud and rebel town.
Florentines are a very funny race, sir,
every girl's in CPA.
Every cat wears a red star spangled ribbon,
catching rats for his amuse;
and it wouldn't be surprising
if there'd be another rising
said the man from the Libero News.

Every bird upon my word
is singing "Yo, ho! I'm a commie!"
Every hen it's said is laying hand grenades
over there sir, I declare Sir.
And every cock in the farmyard
stock crows in triumph for the anarchists;
and it wouldn't be surprising
If there'd be another rising
said the man from the Libero News.

The other day I was walking Villamagna, sir,
I spied in a courtyard;
a bunch of busy geese there, sir
all dressed as Red Guards.
They marched to the Red Army step
as they whistled "Foggy Dew";
and it wouldn't be surprising
if there'd be another rising
said the man from the Libero News.

Every bird upon my word
is singing "Yo, ho! I'm a commie!"
Every hen it's said is laying hand grenades
over there sir, I declare Sir.
And every cock in the farmyard
stock crows in triumph for the anarchists;
and it wouldn't be surprising
If there'd be another rising
said the man from the Libero News.

Now the whole place is seething with sedition
full of commies through and through;
all the peelers they are joining local units
and the password's communism too.
Well the Florentines just sent me a warning, straight into my mail;
and I'm shaking in my shoes
as I'm typing down to you
Said the man from the Libero News.

Every bird upon my word
is singing "Yo, ho! I'm a commie!"
Every hen it's said is laying hand grenades
over there sir, I declare Sir.
And every cock in the farmyard
stock crows in triumph for the anarchists;
and it wouldn't be surprising
If there'd be another rising
said the man from the Libero News.
