Skateaway
I seen a girl on a one way corridor
Stealing down a wrong way street
For all the world like an urban toreador
She had wheels on, on her feet
Well, the cars do the usual dances
Same old cruise and the curbside crawl
But the rollergirl, she's taking chances
They just love to see her, take them all
No fear, alone at night
She's sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones are tight
And the music's playing loud
Hallelujah, here she comes, Queen Rollerball
In an Enchanté, what can I say, care at all
You know she used to have to wait around
She used to be the lonely one
But now that she can skate around town
She's the only, only one
No fear, alone at night
She's sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones are tight
And the music's playing loud
She gets rock 'n' roll and rock 'n' roll station
And a rock 'n' roll dream
She's making movies on location
She don't know what it means
And the music make her wanna be the story
And the story was whatever was the song, what it was
Rollergirl don't worry
DJ play the movies all night long
She tortures taxi drivers just for fun
She like to read their lips
Says, "Toro, toro taxi see ya tomorrow, my son"
I swear, she let a big truck graze her hip
Ah, she got her own world in the city, yeah
You can't intrude on her, no, no, no
She got her own world in the city
The city's been so rude to her
No fears, alone at night
Sailing through the crowd
In her ears the phones so tight
And the music's playing loud
She gets rock 'n' roll and rock 'n' roll station
And a rock 'n' roll dream
She's making movies on location
She don't know what it means
But the music make her wanna be the story
And the story was whatever was the song, what it was
Rollergirl don't worry
DJ play the movies all night long, all night long
Slippin' and a-slidin'
Yeah, life's a rollerball
Slippin' and a-slidin'
Skateaway, that's all
Skateaway
Shala, shalay, hey, hey, skateaway
Now shala, shalay, hey, hey
She's singing shala, shalay, hey, hey, skateaway
Shala, shalay, hey, hey
Stealing down a wrong way street
For all the world like an urban toreador
She had wheels on, on her feet
Well, the cars do the usual dances
Same old cruise and the curbside crawl
But the rollergirl, she's taking chances
They just love to see her, take them all
No fear, alone at night

Pattinare via
Ho visto una ragazza in una strada a senso unico
Scattando contro mano
Per tutto il mondo proprio come un torero di città
Aveva le ruote ai piedi
Beh, le macchine fanno la solita danza
Stesso vecchio percorso e rasentano il bordo del marciapiede
Ma la pattinatrice, vuole correre tutti i suoi rischi
A loro piace vederla
Nessuna paura, sola nella notte
Si fa strada tra la folla
Con le cuffie ben attaccate alle orecchie
E la musica a tutto volume
Eccola qua, Alleluia, la Regina dei pattini
Ciò che posso dirle è Enchanté, ma non le importa affatto
Sai, lei doveva sempre aspettare qui intorno
Era sempre quella che stava da sola
Ma ora che sa pattinare in giro per la città
Lei è l’unica, l’unica
Nessuna paura, sola nella notte
Si fa strada tra la folla
Con le cuffie ben attaccate alle orecchie
E la musica a tutto volume
Lei ascolta il rock ‘n’ roll da una stazione radio di musica rock
E sogna il rock
Sta girando dei film sul posto
Ma non sa cosa significhi
E la musica le fa venire voglia di essere la storia
E la storia era tutto ciò di cui parlava la canzone
Ragazza con i pattini, tranquilla
Il DJ mette su i video per tutta la notte
Lei dà il tormento ai tassisti solo per divertimento
Le piace leggere il labiale
Dice: “Taxi toro, a domani figlio mio”
Giuro, si è fatta sfiorare il fianco da un camion
Ah, si è creata il suo mondo nella città, si
Non puoi intrometterti nella sua vita, no
Si è creata il suo mondo nella città
E la città non è stata carina con lei
Nessuna paura, sola nella notte
Si fa strada tra la folla
Con le cuffie ben attaccate alle orecchie
E la musica a tutto volume
Lei ascolta il rock ‘n’ roll da una stazione radio di musica rock
E sogna il rock
Sta girando dei film sul posto
Ma non sa cosa significhi
E la musica le fa venire voglia di essere la storia
E la storia era tutto ciò di cui parlava la canzone
Ragazza con i pattini, tranquilla
Il DJ mette su i video per tutta la notte
Scivolare e pattinare
Eh si, la vita è una sfera
Pattinare lontano, questo è tutto
Pattinare via
Shala, shala, hey hey, pattinare lontano
Ora shala, shalay, hey, hey,
Lei canta shala, shalay, hey
