Lyrics:
[music: C. Rosso-F. Torchia/lyrics: A. Marchisio] [adapted from the xiiith century Italian sonnet "S'i' fosse foco" by Cecco Angiolieri] If I were fire, I'd burn the world; If I were wind, I'd pester it; If I were water, I'd sink it; If I were God, I'd plunge it; If I were the Pope, I'd be gay, 'cause I'd torment all the Christians; If I were emperor, I'd be good: 'cause everybody's heads I would cut down. If I were fire, If I were fire If I were fire, If I were fire If I were death, I'd go to my father; If I were life, I'd flee him: I'd do the same with my mother. If I were myself, as I am and was, I'd take the young and beautiful gals: The crippled and old I'd leave to others. If I were fire, If I were fire If I were fire, If I were fire
