Paroles et traduction Iwan Fals - Tante Lisa

Tante Lisa

Lelaki renta setengah baya
Geram di trotoar jalan
Saat panas tikam kepala
Seorang buruh disingkirkan

Bising mesin menyulut resah
Masih bisa engkau pendam
Canda anak-istri di rumah
Bangkitkan kau untuk bertahan

Oh ya ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya

Pesangon yang engkau kantongi
Tak cukup redakan gundah
Tajam pisau kepalan tangan
Antarkan kau ke pintu penjara

Oh ya ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya

Sedanau nanah dari matamu
Tak mampu jatuhkan hati mereka
Serimba luka di dalam jiwa
Juga tak berarti

Hitam benak kini mulai akrab
Hitam benak isi hari-harimu
Kau tafakur di jeruji pengap
Kau menjerit coba melawan

Lelaki renta setengah baya
Geram di trotoar jalan
Saat panas tikam kepala
Seorang buruh disingkirkan

Pesangon yang engkau kantongi
Tak cukup redakan gundah
Tajam pisau kepalan tangan
Antarkan kau ke pintu penjara

Oh ya ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya ya
Oh ya

Aunt Lisa

An elderly man, middle-aged
Enraged on the sidewalk
As heat pierces the head
A laborer, discarded

Machine noise incites agitation
Can you still keep it hidden?
Wife and children's laughter at home
Embolden you to endure

Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah

The severance pay in your pocket
Can't alleviate the anxiety
Sharp knife, clenched fist
Lead you to prison's gate

Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah

The pus of abscess from your eyes
Is unable to move their hearts
Scars in the depths of the soul
Also mean nothing

Darkness begins to feel familiar now
Darkness fills your days
You contemplate in a stuffy cell
You scream, try to fight

An elderly man, middle-aged
Enraged on the sidewalk
As heat pierces the head
A laborer, discarded

The severance pay in your pocket
Can't alleviate the anxiety
Sharp knife, clenched fist
Lead you to prison's gate

Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah, yeah
Oh yeah
