Testi Traduzione

Like father like son
Not flesh nor fish nor bone
A red rag hangs from an open mouth
Alive at both ends but a little dead in the middle
A tumbling and a bumbling he will go
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Could never put a smile on that face

He's a sly one, he's a shy one, wouldn't you be too?
Scared to be left all on his own
He hasn't a, hasn't a friend to play with the ugly duckling
The pressure on, the bubble will burst before our eyes
All the while in perfect time
His tears are falling on the ground
But if you don't stand up, you don't stand a chance ey ey ey yeh-yeh
You don't stand a chance

Go a little faster now, you might get there in time

Mirror mirror on the wall
His heart was broken long before he ever came to you
Stop your tears from falling
The trail they leave is very clear for all to see at night
All to see at night
They come at night

In season, out of season
Oh, what's the difference when you don't know the reason
In one hand bread, the other a stone
The hunter enters the forest
All are not huntsmen who blow the huntsman's horn and by the look of this one
You've not got much to fear

Here I am, I'm very fierce and frightening
I come to match my skill to yours
Now listen here, listen to me, don't you run away now
I am a friend, I'd really like to play with you
Making noises my little furry friend would make
I'll trick him, then I'll kick him into my sack
You better watch out, you better watch out

I've got you, I've got you
You'll never get away

Walking home that night
The sack across my back the sound of sobbing on my shoulder
When suddenly it stopped
I opened up the sack, all that I had
A pool of bubbles and tears, just a pool of tears
Just a pool of tears

All in all you are a very dying race
Placing trust upon a cruel world
You never had the things you thought you should've had
And you'll not get them now
And all the while in perfect time
Your tears are falling on the ground

Like father like son
Come padre come figlio
Not flesh nor fish nor bone
Né carne né pesce né osso
A red rag hangs from an open mouth
Un straccio rosso pende da una bocca aperta
Alive at both ends but a little dead in the middle
Vivo ad entrambe le estremità ma un po' morto nel mezzo
A tumbling and a bumbling he will go
Un inciampo e un barcollare lui andrà
All the King's horses and all the King's men
Tutti i cavalli del Re e tutti gli uomini del Re
Could never put a smile on that face
Non potrebbero mai mettere un sorriso su quel volto
He's a sly one, he's a shy one, wouldn't you be too?
È un furbo, è un timido, non lo saresti anche tu?
Scared to be left all on his own
Spaventato di essere lasciato tutto solo
He hasn't a, hasn't a friend to play with the ugly duckling
Non ha, non ha un amico con cui giocare il brutto anatroccolo
The pressure on, the bubble will burst before our eyes
La pressione su, la bolla scoppiare davanti ai nostri occhi
All the while in perfect time
Tutto il tempo in perfetto ritmo
His tears are falling on the ground
Le sue lacrime stanno cadendo a terra
But if you don't stand up, you don't stand a chance ey ey ey yeh-yeh
Ma se non ti alzi, non hai nessuna possibilità ey ey ey yeh-yeh
You don't stand a chance
Non hai nessuna possibilità
Go a little faster now, you might get there in time
Vai un po' più veloce ora, potresti arrivarci in tempo
Mirror mirror on the wall
Specchio specchio sul muro
His heart was broken long before he ever came to you
Il suo cuore era rotto molto prima che lui venisse da te
Stop your tears from falling
Ferma le tue lacrime dal cadere
The trail they leave is very clear for all to see at night
Il sentiero che lasciano è molto chiaro per tutti da vedere di notte
All to see at night
Tutti da vedere di notte
They come at night
Arrivano di notte
In season, out of season
In stagione, fuori stagione
Oh, what's the difference when you don't know the reason
Oh, qual è la differenza quando non conosci il motivo
In one hand bread, the other a stone
In una mano il pane, nell'altra una pietra
The hunter enters the forest
Il cacciatore entra nella foresta
All are not huntsmen who blow the huntsman's horn and by the look of this one
Non tutti sono cacciatori che soffiano nel corno del cacciatore e dallo sguardo di questo

Lo ingannerò, poi lo calcerò nel mio sacco
You better watch out, you better watch out
Faresti meglio a stare attento, faresti meglio a stare attento
I've got you, I've got you
Ti ho preso, ti ho preso
You'll never get away
Non scapperai mai
Walking home that night
Camminando a casa quella notte
