EVERYTHING IS BROKEN

  

 
Everything Is Broken
Broken lines, broken strings,
Broken threads, broken springs,
Broken idols, broken heads,
People sleeping in broken beds.
Ain't no use jiving
Ain't no use joking
Everything is broken.
Tutto è spezzato,
Linee spezzate, nervi spezzati,
trame spezzate, princìpi spezzati
Idoli rotti , teste rotte ,
Gente che dorme in letti rotti ,

Non serve a niente ballare
Non serve a niente scherzare
Tutto è spezzato

 

Broken bottles, broken plates,
Broken switches, broken gates,
Broken dishes, broken parts,
Streets are filled with broken hearts.
Broken words never meant to be spoken,
Everything is broken.
 
Bottiglie rotte , piastre rotte ,
interruttori rotti , cancelli rotti ,                                                                                                 Piatti rotti , pezzi rotti ,                                                                                                                   le strade sono piene di cuori spezzati ,                                                                                    Parole spezzate che non vogliono essere dette                                                                            Tutto è spezzato

Seem like every time you stop and turn around
Something else just hit the ground
Sembra che ogni volta che ti fermi e ti giri                                                                           Qualcos’altro è finito sul terreno

 

Broken cutters, broken saws,
Broken buckles, broken laws,
Broken bodies, broken bones,
Broken voices on broken phones.
Take a deep breath, feel like you're chokin',
Everything is broken.
 
Taglierine rotte , seghe rotte ,                                                                                                  Fibbie rotte , leggi rotte ,                                                                                                           Corpi rotti , ossa rotte ,                                                                                                               voci rotte in telefoni rotti                                                                                                       Respira profondo , ti sembra di soffocare ,                                                                                Tutto è spezzato

Every time you leave and go off someplace
Things fall to pieces in my face
Ogni volta che arrivi o lasci  qualche posto
le cose cadono a pezzi sulla mia faccia ,

 

Broken hands on broken ploughs,
Broken treaties, broken vows,
Broken pipes, broken tools,
Hound dog howling, bull frog croaking,
Everything is broken.

Mani rotte su aratri rotti                                                                                                          Trattati rotti , voti spezzati                                                                                                         Tubi rotti , attrezzi rotti ,                                                                                                                  il segugio ulula, la rana-toro gracida
tutto e' spezzato.
