The Italodisco lyrics in English
To miss a penalty kick,
to play before Coldplay,
maybe yes maybe not.
At least you're always right.
How many questions would I ask you,
tell me yes, tell me no.
I have a tattoo to redo
because I don't like it anymore.
Sometimes I have anxiety creeping up on me.
(Creeping up on me…)
The thing that pisses me off
is when you don't talk to me anymore,
and the world looks all the same.
(All the same…)
I trust you more than myself,
than my parents, than the DJs.
Hurry, I can't resist,
Italodisco, sorry if I insist
but tonight
what I prefer
is an obsession,
an unexpected opportunity to make love.
This is not Ibiza,
Festivalbar with a straight speaker.
I'm looking for you but it's thick fog.
I swear if I think of you my head rings,
it plays Italodisco.
I'm distracted and you're serious,
everyone lost in their thoughts,
maybe yes maybe not.
I hear the bass of Righeira,
if I go towards your eyes.
The thing that pisses me off
is when you no longer answer
and sometimes I have anxiety creeping up on me.
(Creeping up on me…)
I trust you more than myself,
than my parents, than the DJs.
Hurry, I can't resist,
Italodisco, sorry if I insist
but tonight
what I prefer
is an obsession,
an unexpected opportunity to make love.
This is not Ibiza,
Festivalbar with a straight speaker.
I'm looking for you but it's thick fog.
I swear if I think of you my head rings,
it plays Italodisco.
(Disco, it plays Italodisco…)
(Disco, it plays It…)
I would like to explain to you how much I miss Moroder in my soul.
The speaker starts to play and yet I'm silent, Italodisco.
This is not Ibiza,
Festivalbar with a straight speaker.
I'm looking for you but it's thick fog.
I swear if I think of you my head rings,
it plays Italodisco.
It plays Italodisco.
