On The Road
Bambole di Pezza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fra vestiti borchie e giornali
Hai comprato da mangiare?
Solo birra a volontà
Ma poi On the road
Cosa succederà?
Mi viene da sboccare
Ferma e poi decellerare
Dovevamo esser già là
Così On the Road
Chi me l'ha fatto far?
Sorpassa adesso
Fallo ora
Quiiiiii
Yeaaahah On the Road(3V.)
Senza benza dove andiamo
L'autogrill non è lontano
Hai sbagliato direzione
Cosa dice questa qua?
Così On the Road
Via da questa città!
Fate spazio sul sedile
Ora voglio anch'io dormire
Col tuo piede qui nel fianco
Sarà dura riposar
Ma noi On the Road
Via da questa città
Sorpassa adesso
Fallo ora
Quiiiiii
Yeaaahah On the Road(5V.)
The song "On the road" by Bambole di Pezza is about being on a journey, possibly a road trip, with a friend or a significant other. The lyrics describe the cramped space in the car, the hunger and thirst that comes with travel, and the impatience that arises when things don't go according to plan. The singer expresses frustration with the situation, and wonders why they agreed to go on this journey. Despite these difficulties, the chorus encourages the listener to press on, to pass other cars, and to keep driving towards their destination.
The first verse depicts the discomfort that often comes with long car rides - the cramped space, the clutter of clothes and newspapers, and the hunger and thirst that comes with not preparing enough food. The singer is clearly feeling restless and anxious, wondering what will happen next on this trip. In the second verse, the lyrics suggest that the journey may not be going as planned, with a wrong turn being taken and confusion over directions. Despite these obstacles, the chorus encourages the listener to keep moving forward, to pass other cars on the road and to never give up.
The tone of "On the road" is one of frustration mixed with determination. The singer is clearly going through a difficult time, but there is a sense that they will make it through, thanks to the support of their traveling companion. The song captures the feeling of being on a journey - the highs and the lows, the excitement and the monotony - and reminds the listener that the destination is worth the struggle.
