"I wish I was nothing and able even not to brag about it."(R.Queneau, ‘Suburbio e fuga’)
“Social distancing is my favorite erotic game”
What follows is a song between the serious and the joking, written thinking back to an episode of a few years ago. I had just arrived at my choir rehearsal, when a friend greeted me like this "Here comes the metaphysical woman! You are it in a philosophical sense, for what you write, but also in a literal sense: 'half-physical' because you weigh half a pound!"
The song is deliberately self-ironic and a bit caricatural in both the Italian and English versions; however, it contains some fragments of personal truth. The existential research, the tendency towards the subtle dimensions of existence and the almost total lack of interest in more earthly matters - excluding cheesecake - are really distinctive traits of my personality.
Before giving voice to music and poetry, I conclude with the wise words of my friend Manuela "You, Sara, in all this spiritualistic-new age babel, you reassure me, because even if you have walked your beautiful inner path, you are still the same old prick!"

Song Lyrics:
A METAPHYSICAL WOMAN
YOU THINK IT’S JUST A JOKE
I THINK YOU’RE ONLY SMOKE
I’M KIDDING YOU, OF COURSE
NO, I’M SERIOUS
YOU SEE THAT I DON’T CALL
NO HEART EMOTICON
YOU THINK I’M HURT AND COLD
WELL I’M LAUGHING
I SAID THAT I’M A METAPHYSICAL WOMAN - AND WANNA
MY METAPHYSICAL MAN
I’M A METAPHYSICAL WOMAN, - AND I WANT
MY METAPHYSICAL MAN
SO PLEASE DON’T ASK FOR SEX, IT’S JUST A STRESS
I NEED ONLY MEDITATE - I’M SPIRIT!
BUT IF YOU TALK ABOUT CAMUS AND PLATO
AND YOU TRY TO ELEVATE YOUR SPIRIT, CAN’T YOU FEEL IT
DON’T TRY TO ANALYZE
PLEASE DON’T PSYCHOLOGIZE
JUST TURN YOUR BACK AND FLY
SOMEWHERE ELSE
I GET FRUSTRATED WHEN
I’M NOT WITH MY OLD FRIENDS
THEY ACCEPT ME AS I AM
I’M SO DIFFERENT
THEY KNOW THAT I’M A METAPHYSICAL WOMAN - AND WANNA
MY METAPHYSICAL MAN
I’M A METAPHYSICAL WOMAN, - AND I WANT
MY METAPHYSICAL MAN
SO PLEASE DON’T ASK FOR SEX, IT’S JUST A STRESS
I NEED ONLY MEDITATE - DO YOU GET IT?
TALK ABOUT CAMUS AND PLATO
I NEED ONLY CONTEMPLATE - DO YOU GETI IT?
