Dicevi sempre "Vattene via Che non mi importa più di te" Che te la scrivo a fare una poesia Se brucerai le pagine Leggeri come elefanti In mezzo a dei cristalli Zingari come diamanti Tra gang latine Morire, morire per te, eh Non serve a nulla perché, eh Lascerò il mare alle spalle Cadendo su queste strade Ti chiamavo, mi dicevi Cercami nel barrio Come se, come se fossimo al buio Nella notte vedo te Casa mia mi sembra bella Dici "Non fa per te" Però vieni nel quartiere Per ballare con me Tanto suona sempre il barrio Tanto suona sempre il barrio Tanto suona sempre Guido veloce, cambio corsia Ma non per arrivare a te Se devo scalare la tua gelosia Preferirei una piramide Bevevo acqua con OKI Soltanto per calmarmi Giocavo coi videogiochi Per non uscire Morire, morire per te, eh Non serve a nulla perché, eh Lascerò il mare alle spalle Cadendo su queste strade Ti chiamavo, mi dicevi Cercami nel barrio Come se, come se fossimo al buio Nella notte vedo te Casa mia mi sembra bella Dici "Non fa per te" Però vieni nel quartiere Per ballare con me Tanto suona sempre il barrio Tanto suona sempre il barrio Tanto suona sempre Sai che l'ultimo bacio è più facile Poi cadiamo giù come Cartagine Mai, non sparire mai come Iside Mai, mai Cercami nel barrio Come se, come se fossimo al buio Nella notte vedo te Casa mia mi sembra bella Dici "Non fa per te" Però vieni nel quartiere Per ballare con me Tanto suona sempre il barrio Tanto suona sempre il barrio Tanto suona sempre il barrio (Barrio) Tanto suona sempre il barrio
