" When the earth hits your eye like a great pizza pie - that's ... uuhh, different "

" When the moon hits your eye like a big-a pizza pie -
That's amore
When the world seems to shine like you'vehad too much wine -
That's amore
When the stars make you drool joost-a like pasta fazool -
That's amore
When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet,
you're in love
When you walk in a dream but you know you're not dreamin',
signore 'scusa me, but you see, back in old Napoli, that's amore

Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling ting-a-ling-a-ling
And you'll sing "Vita bella"Vita bell-vita bella
Hearts will play tippi-tippi-tay,tippi-tippi-tay
Like a gay tarantella "

Alright, great - that's all good to know;
but what's a 'gay Tarantella' ??

The tarantella (tarentule, tarentella, tarantelle, tarentelle, tarantel) is a traditional dance 6/8 or 4/4 time characterised by the rapid whirling of couples. There are several local variations of this dance, including the Neapolitan, Sicilian, Apulian and Calabrian tarantellas. It is led by a central singer/speaker. A tarantella is also a song that can be played by instrumentalists.
