Discover the story of the song > Dolly – Adriano Celentano

The lyrics are about a protagonist who is being judged by someone, possibly his romantic partner. The protagonist acknowledges that he may have made mistakes, but believes that his partner is better than him and doesn't need to talk about what people say. He recognizes that the love his partner gives is already enough, and wishes he could love without speaking like she does. The protagonist admits that he will never have the wisdom she has, and if there is any beast between them, it's not her. The protagonist compares himself to a growling beast, implying that he has a fierce nature. The lyrics then switch to another song called "Dolly," where the protagonist feels admired and honored by his partner and another person. However, the protagonist knows that they are not human like his partner, and the love between them is just an idea. The song ends with the protagonist being accused of various things by someone angry at their partner leaving them, and the protagonist explaining that words of revenge are not in their nature because they are a dog, but dogs still love.
