Текст и перевод песни Koos Kombuis - Huisie By Die See

Huisie By Die See

Almal wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Almal hoop die struggle is verby.
Almal sê die lewe is eers môre.
Maar môre is te laat vir my.

Almal wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Almal hoop die struggle is verby.
Almal sê die lewe is eers môre.
Maar môre is te laat vir my.

Almal sê hulle wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Almal sê hulle wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Met 'n computer, internet.
En 'n gietyster dubbelbed.
Lewe ons so lojaal en so sentraal,
Ek en my eie lewensmaat, so kaal.
Ons wil 'n huisie by die see hê,
Ons wil net 'n huisie by die fokken see hê.

Okay, almal saam.

Almal wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Almal hoop die struggle is verby.
Almal sê die lewe is eers môre.
Maar môre is te laat vir my.

Almal sê hulle wil 'n Amerikaanse paspoort hê.
Almal sê hulle wil 'n Amerikaanse paspoort hê.
En die lewe hier is fokkol werd,
Ons survive net op die hond se stert,
Pornografie laat al ons kinders hyg,
Terwyl die prys van drank en sigarette styg.
Die truth commission kry nooit klaar,
Ons wag al ure by die bar.
In die democracy het ons fokkol sê,
Ons wil net 'n Amerikaanse paspoort hê,

Maar as dit dan nie kan kry nie,
Dan wil ons maar darem net ten minste 'n fokken huisie by see hê.
Ons wil 'n huisie by die see hê.

Almal wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Almal hoop die struggle is verby.
Almal sê die lewe is eers môre.
Maar môre is te laat vir my.

Almal wil 'n huisie by die see hê.
Almal hoop die struggle is verby.
Almal sê die lewe is eers môre.
Maar môre is te laat vir my.

Cottage By The Sea

Everyone wants a cottage by the sea.
Everyone hopes the struggle is over.
Everyone says life is only tomorrow.
But tomorrow is too late for me.

Everyone wants a cottage by the sea.
Everyone hopes the struggle is over.
Everyone says life is only tomorrow.
But tomorrow is too late for me.

Everyone says they want a cottage by the sea.
Everyone says they want a cottage by the sea.
With a computer, internet.
And a cast iron double bed.
We live so loyally and so centrally,
Me and my own life mate, so bare.
We want a cottage by the sea,
We just want a cottage by the fucking sea.

Okay, everyone together.

Everyone wants a cottage by the sea.
Everyone hopes the struggle is over.
Everyone says life is only tomorrow.
But tomorrow is too late for me.

Everyone says they want an American passport.
Everyone says they want an American passport.
And life here is worth nothing,
We only survive on the dog's tail,
Pornography makes all our children gasp,
While the price of alcohol and cigarettes is going up.
The truth commission never gets completed,
We've been waiting for hours at the bar.
We have no say in the democracy,
We just want an American passport,

But if we can't get it,
Then we just want a fucking cottage by the sea.
We want a cottage by the sea.

Everyone wants a cottage by the sea.
Everyone hopes the struggle is over.
Everyone says life is only tomorrow.
But tomorrow is too late for me.

Everyone wants a cottage by the sea.
Everyone hopes the struggle is over.
Everyone says life is only tomorrow.
But tomorrow is too late for me.
