Italyan, rum casusu çikti is the second studio album by Italian rock band Elio e le Storie Tese.

The album title is in Turkish and means "It was discovered that the Italian was a Greek Spy". This phrase appeared in a Turkish newspaper after Massimo Rana, an Italian Photographer, which was believed a spy in 1991, was arrested by the Turkish-Cypriot police.^[2]

It is considered one of the band's finest works and their most famous album, as it features many songs that would eventually become classics, such as "Servi della gleba", "Il vitello dai piedi di balsa" and "Pipppero®".
