about
Like many tragic characters of Greek and Roman mythology I have a character flaw that has gotten in the way of me attaining that which I desire. In the past I have spent too much money on potential romantic partners, equating fancy dinners, gifts, and money with love and connection. In the end, I am usually left with my money spent up, and no love to show for it.
For this Italo-Disco inspired track I imagined myself with the same problem, but with much grander means. Left alone in a Grande Palazzo built for two, going "pazzo" (Italian for "crazy") all by myself.
lyrics
I'm going Pazzo whoa-ay-o
Pazzo all alone
Pazzo whoa-ay-o
Pazzo all alone
Pazzo Whoa-ay-o
I'm going pazzo in my palazzo
Pazzo all alone
These marble hallways echoed with your laughter
But what's left after?
I think nothing
I've just been lounging around
Cause I've been feeling down
And I've been filling the void by pigging out
The finest wines and cheese
Shipped here from overseas
Only the finest for ya
I had it flown in from Roma
But all these luxuries
They don't mean a thing to me
If I can't share them with ya
Amore, how I miss ya
I'm going Pazzo whoa-ay-o
Pazzo all alone
Pazzo whoa-ay-o
Pazzo all alone
Pazzo Whoa-ay-o
I'm going pazzo in my palazzo
Pazzo all alone
I've been going pazzo
I've been talking to myself
This once great pleasure palace
Is now my empty personal Hell
I've had obsessive compulsions
Ever since we've been apart
I fill up every empty space I see with priceless works of art
But I just want you back by my side tonight
I'd give up all this decadence without a fight
For the worlds greatest treasure, her luxury
It's not found in Italy
It's been right in front of me
Pazzo whoa-ay-o
Pazzo all alone
Pazzo whoa-ay-o
Pazzo all alone
Pazzo Whoa-ay-o
I'm going pazzo in my palazzo
Pazzo all alone
