Menő, mint Koos Kombuis

Azt kívánom, bár erősebb lennék,
akkor mutathattam volna neked egy-két dolgot
Bárcsak lennének szárnyaim,
akkor már rég eltűnhettünk volna együtt
Bárcsak fittebb lennék,
akkor már rég észrevettél volna
Bárcsak egy kicsit fényesebb lenne a kocsim
 
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
ha egy kicsit jobban koncentráltam volna a sulira
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
ha egy kicsit kevesebbet álmodoztam volna a rock 'n' rollról
 
De nem így történt,
és te még mindig szexi vagy,
és most a whiskey-s poharam alatt
az élet első osztályúnak tűnik
 
Bár olyan menő lennék, mint Koos Kombuis1
Akkor megmutatnám neked a házam a tengernél
És egy Mustangban2csókolóznánk Margate-ben3
Woah oh oh oh oh oh
Bár olyan menő lennék, mint Koos Kombuis,
Akkor írnék neked egy dalt a neveddel
És egy tánccal a rock n roll függői lennénk
Woah oh oh oh oh oh

Cool soos koos kombuis (no English equivalent)

I wish I was stronger
Then I would've showed you a thing or two
I wish I had wings
Then we would've disappeared together long time ago
I wish I was more fit
then you would've noticed me long time ago
my car a bit shinier
then we could make out in my car at the movies
 
Wish oh oh oh oh oh
if only i had focussed more at school
Wish oh oh oh oh oh
and dreamt less about a rock and roll
 
but i didn't
and you stay/remain sexy
and here under my wiskey glass
life looks first class
 
i wish i was as cool as koos kombuis
then i would show you my house at the ocean
and in a mustang at Margate sit and make out
Wish oh oh oh oh oh
i wish i was as cool as koos kombuis
then i would write a song with your name in it
and with a dance we'll get addicted to rock and roll
Wish oh oh oh oh oh
 
woah oh oh
woah oh oh
Woah cool like Koos Kombuis
woah oh oh
woah oh oh
Woah cool like Koos Kombuis

Bicycle without a lock

Karin, do remember our get-togethers with cooldrinks
Alone, in the hut of youth's green
Do you remember days of school benches and candle burning
The nights with dogs and stuff to do
 
I bring you flowers
I give you pleasure
I lend you my bicycle without a lock
I know it's late and your parents are sleeping
But I just had to tell you, 'I love you like the Cape'
 
Together we climbed hills, in the summer
And rode bike on the seam of a dream
What are you when you are grown up, is life just upstream?
All our questions flapped like kites in a tree
I bring you flowers
I give you pleasure
I lend you my bicycle without a lock
I know it's late and your parents are sleeping
But I just had to tell you, 'I love you like the Cape'
 
Karin do you understand, that the years like wine
Can grow old, in vats filled with friendship and sun
Do you know that the children are able to love Jesus?
But that children will astound the world more and more
I bring you flowers
I give you pleasure
I lend you my bicycle without a lock
I know it's late and your parents are sleeping
But I just had to tell you, 'I love you like the Cape'
 

Boer*1 in Concrete

I am an Afrikaner in the city, I wear my mask like a cat
through dark alleys and buildings, take five my brother, take five
and somewhere in my subconscious I still see the Karoo's sunshine.
I hear the border fences' singing
I feed the gnomes in my garden
I smoke imported fags, and read English mags
and never go to church because it's a drag
 
Chorus:
I am a Boer in concrete like 'Oom Paul' on Church square
nobody knows of my pain, because I am well camouflaged
I am a boer in concrete
 
Somewhere within me the voice of Strydom and Verwoerd sounds and
the clasp-knife blade, of patriotism that still flashes
Even if I make fire with blits
every forefather a pioneer and I know I don't belong here
I sit around in bars late at night but don't know the smell of soil anymore
There are fields that are still calling, somewhere there is still a Boer porch
The Big Trek over the open Savanna
the shiny barrel of a Sanna
 
Chorus:
I am a Boer in concrete like 'Oom Paul' on Church square
nobody knows of my pain, because I am well camouflaged
I am a boer in concrete
 
There's a kettle that's still boiling, there a bonfire that is still smoking
there are women that still cry and outsiders who fan the flames
I am a stranger just like you in this city
 
Somewhere within me the voice of Antjie Krog and Breyten also sound
every forefather a pioneer, but I know I belong here
Even if I sit around in bars and barely know the smell of soil
Somewhere there is still a Boer porch, there are fields somewhere that still call
my palms are white like you, I beg for solace where I can find it
 
Chorus
