    Have-a some marinara, I know-a you like
    I know-a you like, I know-a you like

    Most of them are just food names. As for the other words:
    "Magnifico" means "wonderful",
    "bambino" "child",
    "mange" is a dialect word for "mangia" "eat"
    "mamma mia" is an exclamation like "Good gracious!"
    The last phrase "capisce paisan" I guess it's the neapolitan way for "do you understand, friend?"
    "-Please tell me you're going to appeal to my humanity..."
    "-Actually, I'm planning to threaten you."

    "Well, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do. Evil plots don't just make themselves, you know!"
