I didn't care any longer. I didn't go to the meetings any more.

So I started working slowly, slowly,

but I already had in mind to do things my way.

We went dancing all around, to Puianello, to Codemondo,

to the Plains, we came back at 2 or 3 at night.

My dad once said to me:

"The night clubs shut down at midnight, where are you staying until 3 o'clock?"

We wanted to have fun

because we'd had such a hard time before, when we only talked about war.

In my detachment I was the singer

and they always asked me to sing this song or that one,

but every time I got sad.

So now I only wanted to enjoy myself.

Then I found a girlfriend,

a cousin of that friend of mine who had died.

In fact I was matched with her

because she was coming to meet me and asked me to take her out to dance.

She was living in Puianello and I was staying in Reggio

and at night she was going to sleep at Pancio's place.

But when something isn't spontaneous it's not going on
