Malandrino Gogol Bordello

My birth I can hardly remember
But I remember from the start
My midwives looking at each other
"Wow, this boy is born with singing heart."

All doors for him will now fly open
For everybody loves a nut."
It's true once they threw me in trenches
Front line amigos sure love that

Malandro, Malandro, Malandrino
Truffaldo, Truffaldo, Truffaldino
Malandro, Malandro, Malandrino
I was born with singing heart

Malandro, Malandro, Malandrino
Truffaldo, Truffaldo, Truffaldino
Malandro, Malandro, Malandrino
I was born with singing heart

Those midwives were like politicians
To bickering, they were so prone
One said, "Life is beautiful gift, boy."
Other one said, "Government loan."

I still don't know which one is right, girl
And you know I don't really care
I got to keep my heart a-singing
And for that anything, I'll dare
Oh, for that anything, anything I'll dare
