TROUBLED SMILE LYRICS: Javier whatever, at the hotel Time for a game of show and don't tell Blonde one looks good, ready to play Served like a burger, have it your way Get on the tour, act real nice What a great cover for your little vice Get to the door, she's coming in Now it is time for the game to begin Take off the mask, time to reveal the monster inside you, the true real deal Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto. Ridi del duol che t'av-velena il cor. Getting it on, inside the room Don't seem to care that this could spell doom Where is your wife, where is your child? Don't matter now cause you're going wild Pushing her down, she's saying no She must be crazy cause you gotta go Says it again, why can't you hear? You got the devil clogging your ear Tear her apart having your fun Hand on her throat's like the point of a gun in una smorfia il singhiozzo e'l dolor Ah! Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto. Ridi del duol che t'av-velena il cor. See you got busted, mug shot and all People been waiting for your great fall Bring in the lawyers, a ring for the wife Pretty you up for the fight of your life But don't worry boy, you got nothing to fear THEY CAN'T CONVICT WITH THE SLUT OF THE YEAR Ridi, Pagliaccio, sul tuo amore infranto. Ridi del duol che t'av-velena il cor. End. |

Canio is a Pagliaccio, a clown in old Italian comedy who receives all the knocks of life. The plural, I Pagliacci, refers to the whole troupe. And so it is Canio's role to bring joy to the audience, though he is in the deepest depths of despair. The aria VESTI LA GIUBBA:
