Im ghetto von soweto


Das ist Tante Janes Haus

als die ersten Schüsse flogen

komm schnell rein, mein Kind, und weine nicht

leg dich auf?n Küchenboden

das ist Orlando-West

im Juni 76

seht die Schulkinder renn?, den jungen Peterson

die Polizei erschießt ihn

Soweto

ein Stein, der fliegt, ein Schuss, der fällt

ein Auto brennt, ein Kind, das rennt

Bilder, die hier jeder kennt

Soweto

wenn sich der braune Staub bald wieder senkt

bleibt nur der graue Rauch am Himmel häng?n

Refrain:

Im Ghetto, Ghetto von Soweto

Im Ghetto, Ghetto von Soweto

Das ist Tante Nancys Haus

sie wolltà Karabos Sachen waschen

er hätte morgens fast die Bahn verpasst

sie zieht seinen Pass aus seiner Jackentasche

?84 in Diepkloof

es war jetzt schon ?ne Woche her

jemand hatte geseh?n wie sie ihn vernehm?

auf der Wache am John-Vorster-Square

Soweto

sie hielten ihn an, er hat keinen Pass

sie nahm? ihn mit, schlugen ihn im Knast

nur heutà weiß von ihnen keiner was

Soweto

wenn sich der rote Staub bald wieder senkt

bleibt nur der braune Rauch am Himmel hängen

Refrain

Es sollt ein Tag der Freude sein

im Haus von Tante Eve

die Tochter hat die Nacht ein Kind gebor?n

nur beide sind verlor?n, sie sind positiv

Das ist Muroka, Pimville, Dube

kein Haus ist gefeit

sie bezwangen die Apartheid, dann kam Aids

und bedroht sie in 2002

Soweto

früher war's TBC vom Untertagebau

heutà ist man infiziert mit HIV

ich sprech? von jeder zweiten schwangeren Frau

Soweto

Wenn sich der braune Staub bald wieder senkt

bleibt nur der graue Rauch am Himmel hängen

Refrain (2x)

Hier steht Aunties Haus...

Für meine Leute, ola Bantwana

ola ma Gents, ola ma Jimbos...
