Quando I Bambini Fanno Oh

When Children Say Oh

When children say oh, there's a little mouse
While children say oh, there's a puppy
If there's one thing I know now
But that I will never see again
It's a black wolf giving a kiss (smack)
To a little lamb

All children say oh
Give me your hand
Because you leave me alone
You know you can't be alone
Without someone
No one
Can become a man

For a doll or a robot, bot, bot
Maybe they argue a bit
But with their little finger out loud
At least they (eh)
Make peace

So everything is new
It's a surprise
And just when it rains
Children say oh
Look at the rain

When children say oh
What a wonder, what a wonder!
But what a fool you see though, though
I feel a bit embarrassed
Because I can't say oh anymore
And do everything as I please
Because children have no hair
Neither on their belly
Nor on their tongue

Children are very indiscreet
But they have many secrets
Like poets
In children, fantasy flies and also some lies
Oh my goodness, watch out!
But everything is clear and transparent
That when an adult cries
Children say "oh"
You made a mistake
It's your fault

When children say oh
What a wonder, what a wonder!
But what a fool you see though, though
I feel a bit embarrassed
Because I can't say oh anymore
I can't swing anymore
With a wool thread I can't make a necklace

Na-na-na-na

As long as the idiots say (eh)
As long as the idiots say (ah)
As long as the idiots go boom
Everything else is the same
But if children say oh
Just the vowel is enough
I feel a bit embarrassed
Instead adults say no
I ask for asylum
I ask for asylum
Like lions
I want to crawl

And everyone is perfect
The color is the same
Hooray for the crazy ones who have understood what love is
It's all a comic strip of strange words
That I haven't read
I want to go back to saying oh
I want to go back to saying oh
Because children have no hair
Neither on their belly
Nor on their tongue
