Italian teacher lecture kindly translated once again by

Francesco Gentile <gentilef@sci.uniroma1.it>

And now dear friends
we are going to translate.
this is my left hand.

Repeat after me
Questa e' la mia mano destra	THIS IS MY RIGHT HAND


Look out
Guardalo(1) che mangia	LOOK AT HIM EATING
E mentre sta mangiando ...	AND WHILE HE IS EATING ...
Parlami mentre mangi	SPEAK TO ME WHILE YOU EAT
E chiedimi cosa sta facendo	AND ASK ME WHAT IS HE DOING
Cosa sta facendo?	WHAT IS HE DOING?
Sta mangiando!	HE IS EATING!
Adesso chiedimi cosa sta facendo	NOW ASK ME WHAT IS HE DOING
Sta mangiando!	HE IS EATING!
Ma non lo posso fare,	BUT I CAN'T DO IT,
Me ne devo andare	I MUST GO
Devo tornare	I MUST GO BACK


Era un senatore a 37 anni	HE WAS A 37 YEARS OLD SENATOR


And this is my last single

Translator's Notes
------------------

(1)	This is the only time the text refer to the masculine gender.
	So I decided to use "HE" for the rest of the excerpt even if in the
	remainder the gender is unknown (and the meaning of the text is
	unknown too!). See also note 4 to TNMT.
	Sometimes in this excerpt you can hear a voice repeating after MB
	while eating. Exhilarating! Specially when he try to repeat "37 anni".

Remember Roy Estradas' recitation of this from the Baby Snakes movie? (10/31/77 NYC Palladium) Conceptual Project-Object Continuity.
