Skassapunka Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

corre il secolo 21
corre l'ombra di nessuno
corre il suono di uno stomaco che è sempre più a digiuno
è l'antidoto comune
e nessuno resta immune
un gigante ed un bambino si contendono la cune
vivi solo se hai il denaro
sopravvivi se sei avaro
siamo sulla stessa barca in un oceano senza faro
CHI NON LAVORA POI RAPINA LA SIGNORA
CHI DELL'ODIO S'INNAMORA CHIUDE A CHIAVE LA DIMORA
SKASSA INTEGRAZIONE
viva la stabilità
non stare fermo vogliono questo




e allora
mobilità

Overall Meaning

The first line of the song, "corre il secolo 21" means "the 21st century is running" in English, which is a metaphor for the fast-paced nature of modern society. The following line, "corre l'ombra di nessuno" means "the shadow of no one runs", which refers to the feeling of anonymity and detachment that many people experience in urban environments. The next line, "corre il suono di uno stomaco che è sempre più a digiuno" means "the sound of a stomach that is always more hungry runs", which highlights the issue of poverty and hunger in contemporary society.


The following lines in the song, "è l'antidoto comune e nessuno resta immune//un gigante ed un bambino si contendono la cune" means "it's the common antidote and no one remains immune/ a giant and a child contend for the wedge". This is a critique of the economic system that perpetuates inequality and pits people against each other. The lines "vivi solo se hai il denaro/sopravvivi se sei avaro" mean "you only live if you have money/you survive if you are stingy". This further emphasizes the fact that money is at the center of everything in modern society, and that those who don't have it struggle to get by.


The chorus of the song, "CHI NON LAVORA POI RAPINA LA SIGNORA/CHI DELL'ODIO S'INNAMORA CHIUDE A CHIAVE LA DIMORA/SKASSA INTEGRAZIONE/viva la stabilità/non stare fermo vogliono questo/e allora/mobilità" means "Who doesn't work then robs the lady/Who falls in love with hate locks the house/Ska integration/long live stability/they want you to not stay still/so mobility". The lines point out the damaging effects of greed and hate on society, while encouraging integration and stability.
