Maak dit saak

Gerald Murray 1972 (Cape Town)



Maak dit saak wat ek maak
Waar ek kyk of wie ek lyk
Niemand sal ooit verstaan
Wat in die wereld aangaan

Gangsters’ baklei oor plek
Terwyl huise se dakke lek
Wanneer gaan alles stop
Hulle dink eks n pop
Maar ek hou alles dop

Die dag breek aan
Wanneer alles sal vergaan
Kry jouself reg
Vir die eind geveg

Wanneer die trompet blaas
Elke een na die berge haas
En die Koning van Konings
Elke mens gaan verbaas.
