Sinistra - Destra

Giorgio Gaber Giorgio Gaber

Left - Right

All of us blame History
But I say the fault is ours
It's clear that people are not serious
When talking about left or right

But what is the right, what is the left
But what is the right, what is the left

Taking a bath in the tub is right
Taking a shower instead is left
A pack of Marlboro is right
Smuggled is left

But what is the right, what is the left

A nice little soup is right
Minestrone is always left
Almost all songs are right
If they get bored they are left

But what is the right, what is the left

Gym shoes or tennis shoes
Still have a bit of a right taste
But wearing them all dirty and a bit loose
Is more foolish than left

But what is the right, what is the left

Blue jeans, a sign of left
With the jacket go to the right
The concert in the stadium is left
The prices are a bit right

But what is the right, what is the left

The potato by nature is left
Mashed in puree is right
The passing lane is left
But during elections it's right

But what is the right, what is the left

The beautiful blue and transparent pool
It's clear it's a bit right
While the rivers, all the lakes and even the sea
Are more shitty than left

But what is the right, what is the left

The ideology, the ideology
Despite everything, I still believe it exists
It's the passion, the obsession of your diversity
That at the moment where it went, no one knows
Where it went, where it went

I would say culatello is right
Mortadella is left
Almost always the headache is right
Colitis instead is left

But what is the right, what is the left

The bribe by nature is right
With the permission of those on the left
It's not known if luck is right
Bad luck is always left

But what is the right, what is the left

The vigorous salute with a closed fist
Is an ancient gesture of left
That of the Twenties, a bit Roman
Is for assholes as well as right

But what is the right, what is the left

The ideology, the ideology
Despite everything, I still believe it exists
It's continuing to affirm a thought and its why
Under the pretext of a contrast that doesn't exist
If it exists, who knows where it is
If it exists, who knows where it is

Humming with the guitar is left
With karaoke is right
Tights are almost always left
The garter belt is more than ever right

But what is the right, what is the left

The response of the masses is left
With the fate of moving to the right
I'm sure the bastard is left
The son of a bitch is right

But what is the right, what is the left

An emancipated woman is left
Reserved is already a bit more right
But a hottie remains an attraction
That's good for left and right

But what is the right, what is the left

All of us blame History
But I say the fault is ours
It's clear that people are not serious
When talking about left or right

But what is the right, what is the left
But what is the right, what is the left

Right-left
Right-left
Right-left
Enough!
