Sy is die stad,
Sy is die stad,
Perty keur lelike,
Perty keur mooi,
So vel uit haar gebore,
Engels se lagte,
Duiwels se pret,
Wil jt dwelmsmiddel koop?
Sal jou reguit nattel toe stuur?
Where steel lamp posts grow out of concrete pavements,
In urban wasteland,
A solitary young prostitute stands,
Short skirt,
Bare legged,
Enslaved feet in nine inch heel, some horny punter's groping hand,
The only thing she'll ever feel.
Where concrete buildings spew out clockwork folk,
Who only come alive between nine and five.
Blind, their seeing eyes,
As they walk past outstretched pleading hands of drunks,
The ex-institutionalised, drunks, addicts, the homeless, the hopeless,
Who decorate the city streets like rotting chunks of meat...
Verby die leehand,
Van die bedelaars.
Wat soos vleis,
Die strate bedek,
Maar nog steeds,
Vaal sagte reen.
Die voels sing van die kersie bome,
Wat stadsrade bedek in elke stad,
Waar gebrookde gebone, hul selve opgee,
Terug aan Natuur,
Waar die ligte skyn,
Op die voetpaaie se liggies.
So vel, so vel in die stad vir almal,
Die maak nie saak wat is lekker vir u,
Daar is altyd iets kyk kyk,
Kyk na die ding jy ken,
Sie dit vir wat dit is,
Ja kyk hoe die stad haarself ondek.
