Lyrics

Liewe Maatjies

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Uh this is it

A whole lot of blood, sweat and tears

But it paid off, I finally made it

Here I am

Living the dream...

Yo this is the fuckin coolest

Check my nuwe fuckin Pumas

Grab your phone take a picture

When you see Yo-Landi Vi$$er and the NINJA/

Lifes tough, hard times can kill...

Sometimes I grab the microphone and go ballistic

Sometimes I grab the mic and skop it like a chill.

This one's goin out to all my gangsters

Dik getinte vensters

Kwaai spoilers

Gedropte suspensions

Spiff rims en kak gevaarlike engines

All I wanna do is zoom zoom zoom

Met 'n poes every doem doem doem

Die Antwoord's n mindfuck soos die fokken Matrix

Have goose bumps from the base kicks

(CHORUS)

Hello al my liewe maatjies

if other gangsters saw me like this...

Hello al my liewe maatjies

all my blacks all my coloureds, all my whities.

(I see the clouds get so deep/Die motherfucking antwoord het jou lief)

Whats that bru I got the good stuff?

I can get you hooked up

My lullaby's float like a butterfly

Sting like a poesklap

There's a heavy calm in the middle of my storm

Geen fokken skaam, skrik vir niks soos die fokken son

Dik fokken gees

Die Ninja moves free

From the cape flats to the overseas

Skop ek kak gevaarlike poetry

this world is dark, but light reveals the shape of things at night.

Translation :

"Hello al my liewe maatjies" -> "Hello all of my beloved friends"(in a child-like manner)

"Check my nuwe fuckin Puma's/" -> "Check out my new fuckin Puma's (shoes)"

"Dik ge-tinte vensters" -> "Thick tinted windows"

"kak gevaarlike engines" -> "shit dangerous engines"

" met 'n poes" -> "with a 'poes'"

"Die Antwoords is 'n motherfuck soos die fokken matrix" -> "Die Antwoord is a motherfuck like the fuckin matrix"

"Die mutha fuckin antwoord het jou lief" -> "The mutha fuckin atwoord loves you"

"skrik vir niks soos die fokken son" -> Afraid of nothing like the fuckin sun
