Paroles et traduction Fikret Kızılok - Demirbas

Demirbas

-Sömürü düzeni bu, sömürü!- -döviz, döviz kalmadı;
Türkiye'nin dözvizi yok- küçücük bir çocuktum, sebebini bilmeden, sokağa çıkamadık, ihtilal oldu sandık, sonra biraz büyüdük, alfabeyi bitirdik, azı dişim çıkmıştı, sünnet bile olmuştum, Kennedy öldürülmüş,
Migros açılmamıştı,
Beatles ortada yokken ekonomi bomboktu, Zeki Müren ortada,
Bülent Ersoy erkekti.
Vietnam Savaşını kendisi ile başlattı -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- sonra Ay'a gidildi, evelallah dönüldü, suya yazı yazıldı, içimiz rahatladı,
Mao henüz ölmemiş, ortaokul bitmemiş, yapyaş yavaşlarken, bankalar hep bomboşmuş, kırat attan inerek, kemerini sıkmıştı, halk üstüne binince, üstümüze çökmüştü.
Hak, hukuk, düzen vardı.
Çüş demesi çok zordu.
Ortaokul biterken, yine ihtilal oldu. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Bilgisayar bulunmuş,
Deniz Gezmiş asılmış,
Papa yine değişmiş,
Mandela hapisteydi,
Çevre kirlenmemiş, İbo evlenmemiş,
Ajda tam boşanırken, dolar yine çıkmıştı. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Kenan sopalısıydı,
Turgut boyalısıydı.
Pek anlamazdı amma Mesut ...
Ydı.
Naim kaldırıyordu, zalim bastırıyordu.
Dün dündür bugün bugün, gafil ablanıyordu.
Kırat attan inerek, kemerini sıkmıştı halk üstüne binince, başımıza çökmüştü.
Hak, hukuk, düzen vardı,
Çüş demesi çok zordu.
Tam askere giderken, yine ihtilal oldu. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Paşa resim yapardı,
Sabancı'ya satardı,"netekim ben" demezsek, anasını satardı.
Tonton dayanamadı, hepimizi batırdı.
Efelerin efesi "muz ağacına" tutundu. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Ecevit hep umuttu,
Erdal bizi uyuttu.
Yaş günü pastamızı vestiyerde unuttu.
Arabamız, evimiz, iki anahtarımız, nasıl da inanmıştık, verir diye babamız .
Kırat attan inerek kemerini sıkmıştı, halk üstüne binince, başımıza çökmüştü.
Ne padişah ne sultan, bir eniştem bir ablam yanında bir de babam sefam olsun yaradan -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- "
Nerde kalmıştık, silindir şapkamı verin."

-This is a system of exploitation, exploitation!- -no currency, no currency left;
Turkey has no tolerance- I was a little kid, didn't know why, couldn't go outside, we thought it was a revolution, then we grew up a little, finished the alphabet, my baby tooth had come out, even got circumcised, Kennedy was killed,
Migros hadn't opened yet,
The Beatles were nowhere to be seen, the economy was terrible, Zeki Müren was around,
Bülent Ersoy was a man.
He started the Vietnam War himself -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- then we went to the Moon, returned by God, water was written on, we were relieved,
Mao hadn't died yet, middle school wasn't finished, slowing down, the banks were always empty, the thoroughbred stepped off the horse, tightened his belt, fell on top of the people when they got on, collapsed on top of us.
There was right, law, order.
It was hard to say fie.
As middle school was ending, there was another revolution. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Computers had been invented,
Deniz Gezmiş had been hanged,
The Pope had changed again,
Mandela was in prison,
The environment wasn't polluted, Ibo hadn't gotten married,
Ajda was just getting divorced, the dollar had gone up again. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Kenan was a clubber,
Turgut was a dyer.
He didn't really get it, but Mesut...
Was.
Naim was raising, the oppressors were suppressing.
Yesterday it was yesterday and today it's today, the naive were being tricked.
The thoroughbred stepped off the horse, tightened his belt, fell on top of the people when they got on, collapsed on our heads.
There was right, law, order,
It was hard to say fie.
Just as I was going to the army, there was another revolution. -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- The Pasha would paint pictures,
Sell them to Sabancı, would curse his mother if we didn't say "as such".
Tonton couldn't take it, sank us all.
The chief of chiefs jumped into a "banana tree". -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- Ecevit was always hope,
Erdal put us to sleep.
Forgot our birthday cake in the cloakroom.
Our car, our house, our two keys, how we believed it, that our father would give it to us.
The thoroughbred stepped off the horse, tightened his belt, fell on top of the people when they got on, collapsed on our heads.
Not a sultan nor a king, a brother-in-law a sister next to me, and also a father may my creator be happy -Süleyman Hep Başbakan- "
Where were we, gimme my top hat."
