Due donne - Two Women

Due donne, due donne, due donne
Da quando sei sposata
non è più come prima,
ti trovo un po' cambiata
l'amore ti rovina

Due donne
Due donne insieme nel bagno
quanti consigli si danno
Due donne
Due donne si scambian le creme,
forse si vogliono bene
Due donne
Due donne, una donna si specchia
sa di non essere vecchia
Due donne
Due donne si guardano i seni
coi loro dolci problemi

Da quando sei sposata
tra noi tutto è finito,
davvero sei cambiata
e poi c'è tuo marito
Due donne, due donne, due donne

© 1971 - Giorgio Gaber (music, lyrics) and Sandro Luporini (lyrics)


Two women, two women, two women.
Ever since you got married
it’s not like it was before.
I find you a little changed,
love has ruined you.

Two women,
two women together in the bathroom,
how much advice they give each other.
Two women,
two women exchange creams,
maybe they love each other.
Two women,
two women, one is reflected,
she knows she’s not old.
Two women,
two women look at each other’s breasts,
with their sweet problems.

Ever since you got married,
between us everything is over.
Truly, you are changed
and then there’s your husband.
Two women, two women, two women.
