Description
This character comes from a song by an italian folk band, Modena City Ramblers.It's about a mad man, and this is more or less how I imagine him.
I also tried and translate the song just for a better comprension of the character.
Il Matto - Modena City Ramblers
The madman comes with his back curved
With the pail, the paintbrush and the atlas
He's got a mouth full of poems and words
He's got a supply always full...
Of stories and offenses,
And nice hopes
The madman carries packs of meat and fish
Of shoes, books, and clothes
Of old coats and sad dolls
Of toys and condoms
Of lost causes
And of good reasons
The madman comes with his ass stained
And if he sees you, he tends his hand
The madman speaks with a missed look
He dreams out loud
And he sees far
The madman talks, shouts and jokes
And he watches you, then laugh out loud
He's got an innocent childish face
He's got a van that smells of wine
He's got, in his eyes, the light...
Of the fool and right one
"I'm the nail hitting in the wall
I'm the wine hidden in the vineyard
I'm the twisted mirror reflecting the world
I'm the cricket in front of the fireplace
Your dirty conscience
coming closer and closer"
The madman comes with his ass stained
And if he sees you, he tends his hand
The madman speaks with a missed look
He dreams out loud
And he sees far
