lyrics

Slang (Herselman)

Ek sê “pa”
Hy sê “ja, my seun”
Ek sê “pa, ek is bang”'
Hy sê “hoekom my seun,
Is jy bang vir daardie slang?”.
Ek sê “ja, pa!”
Ek sê “pa”
Hy sê “ja my dogter,
What is dit wat jou nou pla?''
Ek sê “pa, is dit te laat?''
“want ons is nie bang-
Vir sommer enige slang
Maar die slang wat jy nie kan sien nie pa,
Vir daai slang is ons bang!”
Vertel ons waar-
Waar is daardie slang (pa, pa, pa vertel ons waar)
Vir wie ons
Vir wie ons
Pa, ons word so bang!
Pa kan sien
Maar pa së niks.
Ons sê "ma"
Sy sê "ja"
Ons sê "ma, waar is pa”
Maar ma sê niks nie ... Ah!
Ons sê “ma, pa, ma, pa-
Ma, waar is pa?''
Maar ma sê niks nie ... Ah!
Soek iemand 'n dogter?
Soek iemand 'n seun?
Daar's 'n nasie op die stasie
Wat weet nie waarheen...
En ma is aleen om te wonder
Oor die volgende dag
En vandag se donder
(herhaal koor: vervang pa met ma)
Ma, ons is so bang-
Ma kan sien
Maar ma sế niks
Sy is te bang
Vir die slang
