Real Wild Adventures Happen in Africa

South Africa Lifestyle – Cape Flats Lullaby

Oct 10th, 2008 | By Claudia | Category: Claudia's Wild Adventures

This endearing lullaby was sent to me from Bill.

Firstly you’ll need to understand what happens in the Cape and how people live to understand this in all it’s depths. It’s a good reason to come on a trip with me….

Hush my laaitie don’t you cry
Daddy’s gonna steal you a GTi,
And if that GTi don’t Torque
Another GTi, I will stalk.
And if the stalking don’t go to well
Daddy’s gonna steal you a Caravelle
And if that Caravelle makes some tricks
Daddy’s gonna jack you a VR6.
And if that VR6 won’t fly
Daddy’s gonna knock a BM from a Sandton guy.
And if that BM’s sound is kwaai
Da Cape Flats cherries will go with you to elke braai!
And if the cops ask why ?
Daddy will buy the docket from a Police spy!
And if all these things still make you cry

Then you’re not my laaitie
….. your mom told me a lie !!

P.S. A laatie is the South African slang for the word “kid” aka light weight.
kwaai is cool.
Cherries are chicks/girls
Braai is barbeque
