NON
Sick Tamburo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ancora dieci giorni e poi ritornerò
Voglio ricominciare, prendimi con te
Voglio studiare ancora e forse smetterò
Di raccontarmi storie, padre prendimi

Mio padre non perdona e lo so lui mi sparerà
Mio padre non perdona e mi sparerà
Voglio un lavoro e un cane e una normalità
L'aperitivo con gli amici al bar
Guidare la mia moto per la mia città
Una ragazza, il mare la domenica

Mio padre non perdona e lo so lui mi sparerà
Mio padre non perdona e mi sparerà

Voglio svegliarmi presto e star vicino a te
Ed ascoltare quello che hai da dire
L'amore sul divano e rilassarmi un po'
Una partita a carte e poi al cinema





Mio padre non perdona e lo so lui mi sparerà
Mio padre non perdona e mi sparerà

Overall Meaning

The song "Non" by Sick Tamburo is a contemplative and melancholic reflection on the desire for a normal life, after having lived a difficult and perhaps dangerous past. The first verse speaks of the desire to start over, to study and learn a new way of life. The singer longs to leave behind the stories they have been telling themselves and be taken under the wing of a father figure. However, the second verse reveals that their biological father is unforgiving and will likely shoot them.


Despite this dangerous threat, the singer longs for a simple life filled with a job, a dog, and socializing with friends over drinks. They also crave the freedom to ride their motorcycle around their hometown, find love by the sea on Sunday afternoons, and enjoy leisurely activities like playing cards and going to the movies. The final verse embodies the desire to be close to someone they love, listen to their thoughts, and relax together on the couch.


The repetition of the final two lines of every verse, "Mio padre non perdona e lo so lui mi sparerà" (My Father does not forgive and I know he will shoot me), creates a haunting tone throughout the song. The line acts as a reminder that the singer's past follows them, no matter how much they try to escape it.
