Threesomes (‘E ccose a ttre)
A Napule se chiammeno “’e ccose a ttre”. I’ putesse addimannà a dduje amici d’’e mie ‘e fa’ coccosa anziemme sotto ‘e llenzole ‘mbaranza tutt’e ttre, o ammacare tènere ‘na relazzione a ttre pperzone.
V’’o ‘mmaggenate comme cagnasseno ‘e ccanzone napulitane si ‘stu fatto pigliasse pere? Avessemo ‘a cantà chella canzone ‘e Carosone e dicere: “’A cinche mese nun durmimmo cchiù, ‘na vucchella vurrìamo scurdà, ce ricite comm’amma fa’?”.
‘E mise addeventasseno cinche – e no tre! – pecché tuttecose addeventa cchiù assaje quanno ‘o tiempo passa e ‘a suggità cagna.
Nun ve fa parià pure a vvuje?
Threesomes in Naples are called “’e ccose a tre”. I could ask two of my friends to have some fun and sleep together, all three of us. Hey, we could have a threeway relationship, couldn’t we?
Could you guess how Neapolitan songs would get changed if our mores evolved?
We should sing that Carosone’s song like this: “We’ve not been sleeping for five months, we’d like to forget our lover’s little mouth, tell us how we gotta do?”.
Yes, I said five months – and not three! – because everything gets magnified with the passage of time and the transformation of our society.
Isn’t that legit?
