Lyrics

Largo al factotum della citta.

Presto a bottega che l'alba e gia.

Ah, che bel vivere, che bel piacere

per un barbiere di qualita!

Ah, bravo Figaro!

Bravo, bravissimo!

Fortunatissimo per verita!

Pronto a far tutto,

la notte e il giorno

sempre d'intorno in giro sta.

Miglior cuccagna per un barbiere,

vita piu nobile, no, non si da.

Rasori e pettini

lancette e forbici,

al mio comando

tutto qui sta.

V'e la risorsa,

poi, de mestiere

colla donnetta... col cavaliere...

Tutti mi chiedono, tutti mi vogliono,

donne, ragazzi, vecchi, fanciulle:

Qua la parruca... Presto la barba...

Qua la sanguigna...

Presto il biglietto...

Qua la parruca, presto la barba,

Presto il biglietto, ehi!

Figaro! Figaro! Figaro!, ecc.

Ahime, che furia!

Ahime, che folla!

Uno alla volta, per carita!

Figaro! Son qua.

Ehi, Figaro! Son qua.

Figaro qua, Figaro la,

Figaro su, Figaro giu,

Pronto prontissimo son come il fumine:

sono il factotum della citta.

Ah, bravo Figaro! Bravo, bravissimo;

a te fortuna non manchera.

Written by: Cesare Sterbini, Gioachino Rossini
