Giorgio Gaber "Elections" (1976)
Usually I remember one Sunday a day of sun
looked very beautiful in spring already
you feel cleaner
also the street is cleaner
no crowds and no sound
some reason it never rains when there are elections. A curious sensation
that looks a bit like 'an examination of
not feel fear but
a sweet emotion,
and then the people on the street you see them all more educated
also seem a bit' more good
and is also the most beautiful school
when there are elections. Even in police
air is more reassuring
but it takes me some effort to introduce
with courage is a silence in my seat
a sense of order and cleanliness.
Democracy!
I give up a couple of cards and a beautiful pencil
long, thin, brown, perfectly tempered
and go to the cabin
deliberately casual
not to betray the emotions
and make a mark on my sign
are just like the elections.
really do some good for
'participation
Carefully bend the two cards and I still watch the pencil
is tempered so perfect ...
me I nearly took it away.
Democracy!
