Cultural infidel
By: jimmy buffett
1996
Im a cultural infidel
Painting in the dark
Im a cultural infidel
Singin in the park
Socrates, hypotheses, the music of mozart
Im a cultural infidel
Comin from the heart
Free thinkin, hood-winkin, unblinkin mon
Start trouble, burst bubbles, join my caravahn
Someones got to talk about accountability
Someones got to raise some hell
I guess it could be me
Im a cultural infidel
Tryin to draw a crowd
Im a cultural infidel
Singin right out loud
Philosophy is not for me, laughin is my game
Im a cultural infidel
Slap me with the blame
Loose cannon, armageddon, preachers at the door
Spittin poison at the boysn girls on the dance floor
I hear them in the congress
I see them on tv
I hope the inquisition remains a memory
... horn/pan instrumental ...
Al diablo picasso, al diablo manet
Al diablo fontainebleu, al diablo hemingway
O diab dr. thompson, o diab san joan
O diab village people, o diab rolling stone
(hoo hoo)
Someones got to talk about accountability
Someones got to raise some hell
It might as well be me
Im a cultural infidel
believe in common sense
Im a cultural infidel
Love the present tense
But we have to keep a lookout for those mean old backed up farts
Im a cultural infidel
Comin from the heart
My heart, my heart, my heart
Mon coeur...
Will I see you in heaven?
Will I see you in hell?
Will I see you in rio
Only time will...
Will I see you in heaven?
Will I see you in hell?
Will I see you tomorrow?
Only time will tell

Jimmy Buffett (1946-2023) è stato un cantautore, musicista e scrittore statunitense, noto per il suo stile musicale definito "Parrothead", che fonde elementi di country, folk, rock e calypso. Nato a Pascagoula, Mississippi, Buffett ha trascorso la sua infanzia in diverse località degli Stati Uniti prima di stabilirsi a Key West, Florida, dove ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '70. Il suo successo è legato a brani come "Margaritaville", "Come Monday" e "Cheeseburger in Paradise", che hanno reso Buffett un'icona della cultura americana, associata a un'atmosfera rilassata e paradisiaca. Oltre alla musica, Buffett ha scritto diversi libri di narrativa e saggistica, tra cui il best-seller "A Pirate Looks at Forty". La sua musica e la sua personalità hanno ispirato una vasta community di fan, i "Parrotheads", che celebrano la vita semplice e l'amore per le vacanze. Buffett è morto nel 2023 all'età di 76 anni.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
