A Call From The Vatican
Penélope Cruz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pronto.
Signore Contini. Telephone. Go ahead.
Guido,
I was lazing around my bedroom
Wondering about.
Guido
Who's not wearing any clothes?
I'm not, my darling.
Who's afraid to kiss your toes?
I'm not.
Your mama, dear, is blowing into your ear
So you'll get her loud and clear.
I need you to squeeze me here
And here
And here
Is something wrong?
Um, I'm not sure. It's about my film. It's from the Vatican.
Go head, mon Signore.
Coochie coochie coochie coo
I've got a plan for what I'm gonna do to you
So hot!
You're gonna steam and scream
And vibrate like a string I'm plucking.
Kiss your fevered little brow,
Pinch your cheeks till you say "ow".
And I can hardly wait to show you how
Guido
Who won't care if you come to me tired and over-worked?
I won't, bambino!
Who knows a therapy to beat what you can get from me?
I don't!
But this will have to be enough for now.
Guido
Ciao.
I love you, Guido.
The song "Call from the Vatican" by Penelope Cruz, which was featured in the movie "Nine", is a sultry and seductive conversation between the singer, Guido, and his mistress. The song begins with Guido answering the phone and immediately heard the voice of his mistress, who has a plan for what she's going to do to him. She teases and taunts Guido with sensual lyrics about her need to be close to him and to caress him in various ways.
The chorus of the song, "Guido, who won't care if you come to me tired and over-worked? I won't, bambino! Who knows a therapy to beat what you can get from me? I don't!" suggests that Guido's mistress knows him intimately and is able to provide him with the relief and escape from his troubles that he needs. She tells him to come to her and not worry about anything else but feeling satisfied, implying that she will take care of his needs in ways that others cannot. The song ends with the mistress expressing her love for Guido, leaving the listener to wonder about the nature of their relationship and how it fits into the larger context of the movie's plot.
Overall, "Call from the Vatican" is a steamy and provocative song that captures the forbidden passion and allure of Guido's extramarital affair. The seductive and flirtatious lyrics, set against a sultry jazz background, make this song a standout in the movie's soundtrack.
