Текст и перевод песни Elvis Blue - Linden

Linden

Afrikaans gepraat, moeilikheid gemaak
Fiets gery, als gekry, opgepas middelklas
Space case pas mooi in die skooltas

Eerste date, sonbril fake.
Girl gebel, almal vertel,
Blik geskud, hart van klip,
Niks gevrees, kind gewees.

Oo my lief, jy is te jonk om so verlore te wees
Hoekom het jy als verloor in die strate van Linden?
Waar sal ons jou kry?
Waar sal ons jou kry?

Te veel gekuier, te min geweier
Seer gekry, te vining gery
Iets studeer, weer probeer
Opgeskop, alles gedop

Vakansie gehou, huis gebou
Bakkie gekoop, kinders laat doop
Geld gemaak, wie het 'n saak?
As jy alles het, sien niemand die krake

Oo my lief, jy is te jonk om so verlore te wees
Hoekom het jy als verloor in die strate van Linden?
Waar sal ons jou kry?
Waar sal ons jou kry?

Vrou gekry, toe geskei
Kinders huil, bakkie vuil
Hond gekoop, nou's hy dood
Môre kom, maar wie gee om?

Siek geword, ineengestort
Hospitaal, heel verdwaal ... dis terminaal

Oo my lief, jy is te jonk om so verlore te wees
Hoekom het jy als verloor in die strate van Linden?
Waar sal ons jou kry?
Waar sal ons jou kry?

Linden

Speaking Afrikaans, causing trouble
Riding my bike, getting everything, watching out for the middle class
Space case fits nicely in my school bag

First date, fake sunglasses.
Called the girl, everybody told,
Shook my can, heart of stone,
Feared nothing, was just a kid.

Oh my love, you're too young to be so lost
Why did you lose everything in the streets of Linden?
Where will we find you?
Where will we find you?

Patrolled too much, refused too little
Got hurt, drove too fast
Studied something, tried again
Kicked out, threw everything away

Took a vacation, built a house
Bought a pickup truck, had kids baptized
Made money, who cares?
When you have everything, nobody sees the cracks

Oh my love, you're too young to be so lost
Why did you lose everything in the streets of Linden?
Where will we find you?
Where will we find you?

Got a wife, then divorced
Kids cry, pickup truck is dirty
Bought a dog, now it's dead
Tomorrow is coming, but who cares?

Got sick, collapsed
Hospital, completely lost ... it's terminal

Oh my love, you're too young to be so lost
Why did you lose everything in the streets of Linden?
Where will we find you?
Where will we find you?
