Lyrics - Italian
(Italian folk song)
La macchina del capo ha un buco nella gomma,
La macchina del capo ha un buco nella gomma,
La macchina del capo ha un buco nella gomma
E noi l’aggiusteremo con il chewing gum.
La “BRUM” del capo ha un buco nella gomma… E noi l’aggiusteremo con il chewing gum.
La “BRUM” del “M” ha un buco nella gomma… E noi l’aggiusteremo con il chewing gum.
La “BRUM” del “M” ha un “PSS” nella gomma… E noi l’aggiusteremo con il chewing gum.
La “BRUM” del “M” ha un “PSS” nella “M”… E noi l’aggiusteremo con il chewing gum.
La “BRUM” del “M” ha un “PSS” nella “M”… E noi l’aggiusteremo con il “GNAM GNAM GNAM!”
English Translation – The boss’s car
The boss’s car has a hole in the tire,
The boss’s car has a hole in the tire,
The boss’s car has a hole in the tire,
And we’ll fix it with chewing gum.
The boss’s “VROOM” has a hole in the tire… And we’ll fix it with chewing gum.
The “M”‘s “VROOM” has a hole in the tire… And we’ll fix it with chewing gum.
The “M”‘s “VROOM” has a “PSS” in the tire… And we’ll fix it with chewing gum.
The “M”‘s “VROOM” has a “PSS” in the “M”… And we’ll fix it with chewing gum.
The “M”‘s “VROOM” has a “PSS” in the “M”… And we’ll fix it with a “YUM YUM YUM!”
