“Dance Monkey” is a song by Australian singer Tones and I, released on 10 May 2019 as the second single from Tones and I’s debut EP (An extended play record, often referred to as an EP, is a musical recording that contains more tracks than a single) The Kids Are Coming.
“Dance, Monkey, Dance !” is a popular expression in the United States. It describes the desire of a person to have another person or animal perform a trick (eseguire acrobazie) or dance for their entertainment. It is generally considered demeaning (offensive/ avvilente), the person asked to perform the trick being devalued (svalutata) for satisfying this request.

Text 🇬🇧
Old man look at my life,
I’m a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I’m a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there’s so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don’t get lost.
Like a coin that won’t get tossed
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I’m a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that’s true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn’t mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I’ve been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I’m all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I’m a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that’s true.

Old man look at my life,
I’m a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I’m a lot like you were.

Traduzione 🇮🇹
Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Sono molto simile a come eri tu un tempo
Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Sono molto simile a come eri tu un tempo

Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Ventiquattro anni
e ancora così tanto da vivere
Vivo da solo in un paradiso
Che mi fa immaginare di essere in due

Amore perduto, a che prezzo,
Dammi cose
che non vadano perdute
Come una moneta che non sarà lanciata in aria
Mentre torno a casa da te

Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Sono molto simile a te
Ho bisogno di qualcuno che mi ami
per tutto il giorno
Ah, basta che mi guardi negl’occhi
per capire che è vero

Ninnenanne si riflettono negl’occhi tuoi,
Corriamo in giro per la stessa vecchia città
Non ha così tanta importanza per me
significa tanto per te

Sono stato il primo e l’ultimo
Guarda come va e passa il tempo
Ma alla fine sono completamente solo
Mentre torno a casa da te

Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Sono molto simile a te
Ho bisogno di qualcuno che mi ami
per tutto il giorno
Ah, basta che mi guardi negl’occhi
per capire che è vero

Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Sono molto simile a come eri tu un tempo
Vecchio, guarda la mia vita
Sono molto simile a come eri tu un tempo

The Story Behind Queen Elizabeth II’s Marriage

The marriage of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip is the longest of any British sovereign. They are together more than 70 years already. They knew each other from childhood. In fact, Elizabeth and Philip are cousins. They are great-great-grandchildren of Queen Victoria. They have met for the first time when she was 8 years old and he was 13. Elizabeth fell in love with Philip 5 years later. It was their second meeting. Elizabeth visited the British naval academy and Philip was training there. He was her tour-guide. Philip was charming and confident. But the young man didn’t pay her any special attention as she was too young. They’ve started corresponding but for Philip that was just friendship. Princess kept a photo of Philip by her bed. The courtship seriously started after WWII. Philip wasn’t the best match for the future Queen. He was the prince of Greece and Denmark. But his family was exiled from Greece and had no fortune or lands. Nevertheless, they engaged when Elizabeth was 20. Her father King George VI asked to keep relationships in secret until Elizabeth’s 21 birthday. The king and his wife worried that their daughter was too young to marry. They also didn’t like Philip – he was called a bit rough (rozzo). But the two never wavered (vacillarono) and they married in November 1947. To marry Elizabeth Philip had to give up the royal titles of his birth. The first years after the wedding were relatively normal for them. Prince Philip was stationed in Malta with the Royal Navy. Elizabeth lived the life of naval wife: she went shopping, sightseeing, and gossiped. King George VI died when Elizabeth was 25 years old. She was coroneted in 1953 and Philip was the first to swear allegiance to the new queen. After a few years, she granted him the title of a Prince of the United Kingdom. He became a consort of the Queen. Elizabeth and Philip have four children, 8 grandchildren, and 7 great-grandchildren.
