I saw a documentary on the band a couple of years ago in which they told a cute story: All three Nana's shared a council flat in London (Apartment block in the projects, US reader ). After the song was a hit they received a home visit from Bobby whilst he was visiting London and they were dumbstruck that he was actually there in their home. He stayed for a while, had a cup of tea & posed for photographs. | |

CHIC0 said: The song tells the tale of a girl that is raped while walking on a park! Instead of Barbados (like Tori sings on "Me and a Gun"), the raped girls think of Robert De Niro while being raped! Originally the chorus was Al Pacino, but the girls changed it to Robert De Niro, because the song flowed better. here r the lyrics: Hopes dashed to the floor like shattered teenage dreams Boys living next door are never what they seem, oooh A walk in the park can become a bad dream People are staring and following me This is my only escape from it all Watching a film or a face on a wall Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting, Talk-ing Italian Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting I don't need a boy, I've got a man of steel Don't come any closer, I don't wanna feel, oooh Your breathing, your touching, but nothing's for free I never want this to happen to me Don't try to change me, you're wasting your time Now I've got something much better in mind Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian Robert De Niro's waiting, Talk-ing Italian Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting Talk-talk-talk-talk-talk-talk-talk-talk, talk-ing, oooh Talk-talk-talk-talk-talk-talk-talk-talk, talk-ing A walk in the park can become a bad dream People are staring and following me This is my only escape from it all Watching a film or a face on a wall Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting, Talk-ing Italian (tor-or-alk) Robert De Niro's waiting, Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Robert De Niro's waiting, Talk-ing Italian (tor-or-alk) Talking Italian (Talking Italian) Talking Italian (fade) [Edited 8/25/06 7:02am] | |
