Lyrics deal much with social and political criticism. "Louisiana" is about death sentence, through the story of Willie Jasper Darden (depicted in the cover), a citizen who was sentenced even though it existed strong doubts about his guilt. "Santiago" is about Pope John Paul II's visit to Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. "Tex" is about the genocide of Native Americans, with its title referencing popular Italian comic book series Tex: the song features western sounds, as it happens on other Litfiba songs (e.g. their single "Il mio corpo che cambia", from their album Infinito). "Paname" is a song about the protests against war in France, with lyrics in Italian and French referencing the Paris Carnival ("Paname" is in fact the French nickname of Paris).[2] The song "Cuore di vetro" has been described as "the first Italian grunge song".[3]
