(come un sasso che)
(l’acqua tira giù)
(dove vorresti tu non vado mai)
A 16 anni la speranza mi ha già abbandonato
bocciato all’itis a san donato
volevo fare il deejay alla radio
qui indosso il camice mi fanno fare l’operaio
lima tornio oscilloscopio
qui non imparo a programmare un videogioco
il pomeriggio faccio pulizie col mio vicino
i miei sono orgogliosi ma in paese già
mi chiamano spazzino
ho il motorino scassato
di mio cugino
nessuno mi aspetta
loro prendono 50 di paghetta
hanno la moto la tipa la compagnia
io gioco solo sul cantiere del cavalcavia
e come un sasso
cado giù sulla periferia
rit:
(come un sasso che)
e scrivo un’altra canzone
(l’acqua tira giù)
mentre mi lascio cadere
(come un sasso che)
e non ne voglio sapere
(l’acqua tira giù)
nessuno mi può capire
(come un sasso che)
solo un altro uguale a me
(l’acqua tira giù)
solo un altro uguale a me
(dove vorresti tu non vado mai)
24 anni faccio i dischi per campare
nessuno ci credeva
adesso è un caso nazionale ma per me questo successo
è solo fargliela pagare tipo alla più carina della scuola
che ora mi vuole fare
io faccio il cretino mi faccio le veline
la nuova scimmietta nelle loro vetrine
eppure dentro sono a lutto anche se ho tutto
sono tornato dal mio bullo e gli ho fatto brutto
ma i miei amici stanno litigando
per il turno per il bagno per lavarsi via
un po’ di fango la gente mi sta addosso
non mi sta più accanto e dicono è un montato
si è venduto sta cambiando
solo mia mamma sa bene chi è alessandro
e non ci dormo con la para
di fare come un topo per un po’ di formaggio
prendo le gocce e collasso
senza sogni come un sasso
rit.
Ripetevano stai calmo
un po’ più controllato
o arriverai a trent’anni e t’han dimenticato
ma grida sei il capo in fila al supermercato
la signora il benzinaio e pure l’immigrato
non ho bruciato tutti i soldi e i neuroni
grazie al sacrificio dei miei genitori
che non mi hanno viziato come han fatto tanti
e mo hanno figli in casa fino a 40 anni
io non finirò mai come kurt cobain
non mi uccide la musica prima uccido io lei
ti stupisci se tuo figlio mi prende ad esempio
io parlo la sua lingua e con te resta in silenzio
non legge il tuo giornale se ne fotte del partito
per questo resto un mito anche dove mi hanno bandito
divento la sua arma il suo sogno di riscatto
lui mi tira io ti spacco come un sasso
