"Generale" - Francesco De Gregori
live with Pino Daniele (HD)

"General behind the hill
there's night cruel and murderous
and in middle of field there's a peasant woman
bent in the sunset she looks like a child
fifty years and five children
came to the world as rabbits
started toward the world as soldiers
and not yet returned

General behind the station
see the train carrying to the sun
not longer stop even to piss
We go straight home without thinking
that war is kind though it hurts
We can return to sing again
and to make love nurses

General war is over
the enemy defeated and fled
Behind the hill there's nobody
only pine needles
and silence and mushrooms
good to eat good to dry
for the sauce when Christmas comes
when babies cry
and don't want go to sleep

General these five star
these five tears on my skin
haven't meaning in noise of this train
that is half empty and half full
and run fast towards the return
Few minutes and is almost dawn
it's almost home
it's almost love"
