Clapham Junction of iewers op 'n London Stasie
Dreunend oor die platform
kom jou voete verby gestorm
om my toe te laat om die
deur oop te maak
sodat jy die eerste gaping
in, kan skaak
Jou boudbene geslyp
om die beste sitplek te
gryp
Ten spyte van oupa of ouma
se bene
of babakies wat nog nie
eers gespene
Dan snork jy nog ook -
die stilte weg
Terwyl jou ore se geraas
almal se rit versleg
met die afklim
verdwyn jy
soos 'n skim

You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
you are as beautiful as
the morningdew dripping from the trees
as the first rays of the sun over the mountaintops
as the whitest cloud in the bluest sky
you are as beautiful as
the ocean on a calm day
when one can see the reflection of nature’s perfection
you are as beautiful as
the morningdew dripping from the trees
as the first rays of the sun over the mountaintops
as the whitest cloud in the bluest sky
you are as beautiful as
the ocean on a calm day
when one can see the reflection of nature’s perfection

As
As mens ophou lag
as daar nie meer iets is
om jou mondhoeke te
laat trek nie
as dit ‘n effort raak
om net te smile
as jou brein sukkel om
die konsep daarvan om
te sit in ‘n kode giggel
as jou hart nie meer
weet hoe dit voel om
vol uit te lag nie
as jou maag nie meer
kan styf trek as jy diep
daaruit gil van geluk nie
waarheen is jy oppad?

Almost perfect line
An almost perfect line
and I feel sad
bad
The next one starts with
the piano
los voetspore op my hartkamers
soos in seesand
tot die soutwater dit wegspoel
na ‘n ewigheid
onverstanbaar
onvoorspelbaar
Saggies tokkel dit rustig voort
en lei my na ‘n poort
van amper trane
en
stop.
tears in the mud
cancer of the heart
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
tears in the mud
ripped out your heart
tears in the mud
cancer of your heart
you fall apart

Die Weer
Die weer
bepalend van emosie
donker wolke
oorweldigend
Sonneskyn, laat al
die seer verdwyn
Blou is die lug
ons lewensvrug
Dit is so diep
ek wil sommer omtiep
met griep
want dit is winter
en my penpunt is versplinter
dit maak deurmekaar krappe
onverstaanbaar.
