Hey, Italia
Let's turn it up
Yeah Blek out ourselves
'Cause you know you're never Esse Gesse without their style

Your clothes may be Red coat, Grande
Your cool Dardo style
But Miki you're never Esse Gesse without trio

But if you stand for nothing you'll fall in the war
We got all we need, chained no more
Your cover's Esse Gesse Corrado styled
And if you stand for somethin' Grande Blek them all
'Cause if is real your love will show in lines
Your cover's Esse Gesse Corrado styled (oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh)
You're never Esse Gesse without their smile (oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh)
You're never fully blessed without a smile

So great to see pieces like this in an overseas collection! Yet another proof of your taste and love for good art, no matter who the artist is nor what the story/character. Congrats!
