Reactionary Lullaby

It happens to all parents to stand near the cradle of their sleeping child and think about his tomorrow, with anguish, clutching his hand......

                  Reactionary Lullaby                                    
Lyrics and music by Oscar Bartoli
 
The fairy tales that the others will tell you will be more interesting than those of you father who repeats, without any conviction, consumed stories about wizards and fairies.

The smiles of all the other women will be sweeter than those of your mother who reminds of your duties  too much, while it is good to fly without a target.
 
And then somebody will open your eyes, saying that you were suffocated in a narrow-minded and reactionary place, that the family is something of the past.
 
If the world is like that of your father, why waste yourself in an absurd battle?

t’s better to find the ideal somewhere, it’s better to null yourself and not think of anything?

So then in your looks, my son, I’ll maybe discover a lot of compassion for a life uselessly spent, serving every master like a dog.

How I would like to protect you, little Chick?

how I would avoid your suffering?

Sleep and smile, holding my hand



Grazie Oscar, molto interassante,
Hal
