Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - 17 Juli 1996

17 Juli 1996

Gonjang-ganjing gonggongan anjing
Anjing herder sampai anjing peking
Dar-der-dor otak digedor
Dengan pelor hati diteror
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Ngeles!

Sas-sis-sus dengar desas-desus
Banyak kasus bikin sakit usus
Hang-heng-hong berita bohong
Kongkalikong sindikat kingkong
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Cuek aje!

Kwek-kwek-kwek suara bebek
Merem melek denger geledek
Dalam benteng diadu gambreng
Bandar judi tambah mentereng
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Untung banyak doi!

Sengkuni kilik sana-sini
Kurawa dan Pandawa rugi
Dewa-dewa kerjanya berpesta
Sambil nyogok bangsa manusia
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Hancur!

Hak azasi hidup di sini
Tinggal kata tinggal piagam
Bukan keki bukan patah hati
Sebab hukum berwajah muram
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Busyet dah!

Gonjang-ganjing gonggongan anjing
Anjing herder sampai anjing peking
Dar-der-dor otak digedor
Dengan pelor hati diteror

Sas-sis-sus dengar desas-desus
Banyak kasus bikin sakit usus
Hang-heng-hong berita bohong
Kongkalikong sindikat kingkong

Kwek-kwek-kwek suara bebek
Merem melek denger geledek
Dalam benteng diadu gambreng
Bandar judi tambah mentereng

Sengkuni kilik sana-sini
Kurawa dan Pandawa rugi
Dewa-dewa kerjanya berpesta
Sambil nyogok bangsa manusia

Hak azasi hidup di sini
Tinggal kata tinggal piagam
Bukan keki bukan patah hati
Sebab hukum berwajah muram

Gonjang-ganjing gonggongan anjing
Anjing herder sampai anjing peking
Dar-der-dor otak digedor
Dengan pelor hati diteror
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Habis!

July 17, 1996

Dogs bark and howl in chaos
From herders to Pekingese
Bullets pound my skull
My heart is filled with dread
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Lies!

Rumors spread like wildfire
Cases of corruption make me sick to my stomach
Lies spread like wildfire
Conspiracies among the powerful
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
Who cares!

Ducks quack in the background
I sleep with one eye open, afraid of what's to come
They fight inside the walls
Gambling dens grow more opulent
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
So much money to be made!

Sengkuni, a master manipulator
The Pandavas and the Kauravas lost
The gods feast and party
Bribing humans
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
We're doomed!

Human rights are dead here
Just words on paper or a charter
I'm not heartbroken, not anymore
Because the law is so severe
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
This is bad!

Dogs bark and howl in chaos
From herders to Pekingese
Bullets pound my skull
My heart is filled with dread

Rumors spread like wildfire
Cases of corruption make me sick to my stomach
Lies spread like wildfire
Conspiracies among the powerful

Ducks quack in the background
I sleep with one eye open, afraid of what's to come
They fight inside the walls
Gambling dens grow more opulent

Sengkuni, a master manipulator
The Pandavas and the Kauravas lost
The gods feast and party
Bribing humans

Human rights are dead here
Just words on paper or a charter
I'm not heartbroken, not anymore
Because the law is so severe

Dogs bark and howl in chaos
From herders to Pekingese
Bullets pound my skull
My heart is filled with dread
O-o-oh
O-o-oh
O-o-o-oh
We're finished!
