I numeri non li sopporto più
I can't stand the numbers anymore
La matematica che mi perseguita
The math that haunts me
Ovunque vai, qualsiasi cosa fai
Wherever you go, whatever you do
Si parla solo coi numeri
People only talk with numbers
La gente parla coi numeri
The people speak in digits
La gente dà i numeri
People are losing their minds
Quanto guadagni?
How much do you earn?
Quanto risparmi?
How much do you save?
Quanti anni hai?
How old are you?
E che voto mi dai?
And what grade do you give me?
E quanto costa questo?
And how much does this cost?
E quanta gente c'era?
And how many people were there?
E quanto costa questo?
And how much does this cost?
"E grazie, tenga il resto"
"And thank you, keep the change"
Un milione e settecentotrentamila si vestono come te
One million and seven hundred thirty thousand dress like you
Ma non sono uguali a te, almeno secondo me
But they aren't like you, at least in my opinion
O forse sì, dipende da te, 25, 35, 25, 35, 23
Or maybe they are, it depends on you, 25, 35, 25, 35, 23
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We aren't numbers, but we are free
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We aren't numbers, but we are free
3 x 5, 25, 6 x 3, 33, 2 x 8, 48, 3 x 9, 29, 6 più 2, quattro due
3 x 5, 25, 6 x 3, 33, 2 x 8, 48, 3 x 9, 29, 6 plus 2, four two
3 x 8, 48, 6 x 9, 29, 3 x 3, 33
I numeri non li sopporto più
I can't stand the numbers anymore
La matematica che mi perseguita
The math that haunts me
Quanto mi dai, dimmi quanto mi darai
How much will you give me, tell me how much you'll give
A che ora arriverai, scusa, dimmi che ora fai
What time will you arrive, sorry, tell me what time you're at
Quanti chilometri bisogna fare per andare verso la libertà
How many kilometers must I travel to go toward freedom
Chissà poi dove sarà, o forse qua
Who knows where it will be, or maybe here
Anzi mi sa che è proprio qua
Actually, I think it's right here
25, 35, 25, 35, 23
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We're not numbers, but we're free
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We are not numbers, but we are free
3 x 5, 25, 3 x 5, 25, 3 x 5, 25, 3 x 5, 35
6 x 3, 33, 6 x 3, 33, 6 x 3, 33, 3 x 3, 33
I numeri non li sopporto più
I can't stand the numbers anymore
La matematica che mi perseguita
The math that haunts me
I numeri, i numeri
The numbers, the numbers
I numeri, i numeri
The numbers, the numbers
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We are not numbers, but we are free
Non siamo numeri, numeri, numeri, ma siamo liberi
We are not numbers, numbers, numbers, but we are free
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We are not numbers, but we are free
Non siamo numeri, ma siamo liberi
We are not numbers, but we are free
