Lyrics and translation Daniël Lohues - Ze benn benauwder veur joe as ie veur heur - Live

Ze benn benauwder veur joe as ie veur heur - Live

Met onze ome Johan
Die woont in Nei Schoonebeek
Gungen wij 'n maol as kinder
Fietsen in de leste week
Van de grote vakantie
Heen deur Bargerveen
Daor zaten hiel veel adders
Mar ome Johan zee
Ome Johan zee

Ze benn benauwder veur joe-
As ie veur heur
Wees nou mar nie bange
Anders hebben ze dat nog deur
Anders hebben ze dat nog deur

Met 'n aole vriendin
Was ik 'n maol in Canada
En met 'n Canadese ex van heur
Zo van: "Nou, toe dan mar"
Gungen wij de bärgen in
Dagen wandeln in de wildernis
En ik zee continu
Daor löp 'n beere a'k mij niet vergis

Ze benn benauwder veur joe-
As ie veur heur
Wies nou mar nie bange anders
Anders hebben ze dat nog deur
Anders hebben ze dat nog deur

Ze benn benauwder veur joe-hoe-
As ie veur heur
Oh, wees nou mar nie bange anders
Anders hebben ze dat nog deur

Mien bruur- mien-
Mien bruur en zien vrouw
Die kregen kinder. Ik wur ome
En ik gao veur die twee jongens
Deur elk vuur hen, godverdomme
Laatst heb ik meend
Die twee jongens wat te moeten leern
Dat 't met mensen net zo is
As met slangen... en met beern
Ja, ha, ha!

Ze benn benauwder veur joe-
As ie veur heur
En wees nou mar niet bange
Anders hebben ze dat nog deur
Oh, anders hebben ze dat nog deur

Ze benn benauwder veur joe-
As ie veur heur
As ze bangigheid kunn roeken
Dan hebben ze dat nog deur

Ze benn benauwder veur joe, as ie veur heur
Ze benn benauwder veur joe, as ie veur heur
Ze benn benauwder veur joe, as ie veur heur
Ze benn benauwder veur joe, as ie veur heur

They're More Afraid of You Than You Are of Them - Live

With my uncle Johan
Who lives in Nei Schoonebeek
We went once as kids
Cycling in the last week
Of the summer holiday
Through Bargerveen
There were lots of adders there
But uncle Johan said
Uncle Johan said

They're more afraid of you-
Than you are of them, girl
Don't be afraid now
Otherwise they'll sense it
Otherwise they'll sense it

With an old girlfriend
I was once in Canada
And with a Canadian ex of hers
Like: "Well, let's go then"
We went into the mountains
Days hiking in the wilderness
And I kept saying
There's a bear there if I'm not mistaken

They're more afraid of you-
Than you are of them, girl
Just don't be afraid otherwise
Otherwise they'll sense it
Otherwise they'll sense it

They're more afraid of you-ooh-
Than you are of them, girl
Oh, just don't be afraid otherwise
Otherwise they'll sense it

My brother- my-
My brother and his wife
They had children. I became an uncle
And for those two boys
I'll go through any fire, goddamn it
Lately I thought
I needed to teach those two boys something
That it's the same with people
As with snakes... and bears
Yeah, ha, ha!

They're more afraid of you-
Than you are of them, girl
And don't be afraid now
Otherwise they'll sense it
Oh, otherwise they'll sense it

They're more afraid of you-
Than you are of them, girl
If they can smell fear
Then they'll sense it

They're more afraid of you than you are of them, girl
They're more afraid of you than you are of them, girl
They're more afraid of you than you are of them, girl
They're more afraid of you than you are of them, girl
