Our Future Must Improve

Versions: #2
We've been staying home for long
And our life needs some change
The streets are crowded,
crowded with people waiting in line
I want to escape the noise and fly away
 
Micro-bus drivers are like lunatics
they overtake us left and right
They park in the middle of the street
And argue with you:
'Where else can I go?'
 
'Oh man, you've blinded us with this smoke
Find a way to fix your exhaust
You're still standing there?
C'mon, get up and sing with us'
 
Our future must improve and become better
if we change our lives a little bit
Changing is an easy matter
if we focus and make some progress
 
We have been running errands since morning
and we've been walking for long
we found a street-café
and a lot of people sitting
We decided to sit and drink something
because we were thirsty
We found everyone gazing and absent-minded
 
They were watching the TV
and happy as they were playing backgammon
We asked them: who are you?
They said: 'we are the free people who have nothing to do
Our homes are crowded and we've escaped them
We wanted to achieve something
but we couldn't..'
 
'Maybe it's because you never focus
And you are lost in life and absent-minded
You will stay here, sitting like this
And years will pass you by
You must think it through
and find the right way to think about this'
 
Again we went to walk out on the street
and after a traffic jam
we found a school
where kids were jumping over the fence
They all decided to skip school after just getting there
And no one cares for attendance nor absence
 
The teachers and the principal
all have canes of every shape and color
So many students are absent because they have a cold
or others got tired in class and fell asleep
 
And I asked myself: whose fault is it,
the students or the teachers?
But anyways, we keep on walking
A, B, C, D , E
 
Mahrous wanted to shave his sideburns
When we parked near his barber
we found many people waiting at his door
Turns out he's been causing a turmoil
 
He shaves 3 people's beards with the same razor
at the same time to save money
but he also infects them with viruses
'I didn't shave, I am lucky!'
 
'Oh man, what are you doing?
Don't you know you're infecting people?'
'And you all are silent, not speaking a word
Won't you ever learn
and take a step forward?'
 
We were lost on the streets
with no one around us
And suddenly we found
ourselves at a wedding
 
We looked at the couple sitting, and were shocked
We couldn't believe our eyes
'Oh happy days,
congratulations to you!'
 
The bride's father is letting his daughter
marry a man as old as his own father..
The girl is in prep school
and wanted to study the law
 
And what did the baby
they will bring into this world ever do to deserve this?
 
You are being a backward thinker
You must give your girl a chance
to educate herself, exactly like a boy is given this chance
So that maybe when she grows she would be able
to accomplish an impressive achievement
 
Let me know if you have any questions about my translation. Good luck.

My Mother is Traveling

Taki:
Today is the holiday
My mother is traveling, going to a funeral
I walked her to the door
And then a brilliant idea hit me
 
I've got the equipment and the CD's
And today is thursday
Which means everything is running smoothly
The only thing remaining is to act
 
I called all my friends immediately
None of them was busy
Everyone answered saying either
'Rad!' 'Peace!' or 'Cool!'
 
Now there's only one thing for me to do
I must empty the house of all furniture
You see, there are people who keep breaking stuff
And we don't want to have any quarrels
 
I put speakers everywhere
And I put my CD's in a thingy
Everything is ready for broadcasting
But it's still way too early.. there's an hour to go..
 
I kept thinking, I asked myself
Am I just going to keep waiting?
So I brought the microphone
I hooked it in and started singing
 
My mother is traveling and I'm throwing a party
But I hope she does not show up out of the blue
My mother is traveling
And I'm throwing a party
 
Hope our neighbors don't report us to the cops
and hope the electricity doesn't fail
Hope our neighbours
don't report us to the cops
 
Mahmoud:
I arrived at Taki's at 8
I was wearing Germany's football team jersey
I looked around, found his home became something else..
And the party was full to the brim in a second
 
Bang-up music, it was all Dance,
rap, house, rai and trance
And with every minute the number of people increased
And I was standing at the door not knowing what to do
 
And outside there were people causing a commotion
They've come and they have weapons with them
They made me become so uncomfortable
So I locked the house up with the key
 
And I wrote a paper and hanged it on the door, it said:
'No stoners allowed'
If this talk is unbelievable
Excuse me, I'll take responsibility for it
 
I decided to spoil myself for a bit then
I kept dancing and my friends were around me
Suddenly they threw me a mic
And told me: sing the song!
 
My mother is traveling and I'm throwing a party
But I hope she does not show up out of the blue
My mother is traveling
And I'm throwing a party
 
Hope our neighbors don't report us to the cops
and hope the electricity doesn't fail
Hope our neighbours
don't report us to the cops
 
Mikie:
I've been waiting for this party
I took my car and came with it
Because of the extreme traffic around it
I couldn't find a single spot to park
 
So I left it by the pavement
And the view was sweet out there
There were a lot of high-class looking boys
Sweet girls that are so humerous
 
And inside there was an entire new universe
The sky was raining songs
And as I was standing there dancing
I saw a bunch of girls I like
 
I knew one of them
But I didn't really like her much
So I said, it's okay, I'll get in her good books
So I can dance with her friends!
 
And the morning rose
and all the people around us left
We kept arranging and organizing things
And then we drummed and sang
 
My mother is traveling and I'm throwing a party
But I hope she does not show up out of the blue
My mother is traveling
And I'm throwing a party
 
Hope our neighbors don't report us to the cops
and hope the electricity doesn't fail
Hope our neighbours
don't report us to the cops
