#SouthAfrica #Music #Afrikaans #FokofPolisieKar

There’s a verse in a #Fokofpolisiekar song that speaks to me although I doubt it’s about #adhd

“Regulate me / make me follow a routine/ put me in a box and mark it ‘safe’”

(It’s from Hemel op die Platteland and I recommend both the original and the acoustic versions!)

If you like anti-fascist hard punk, and especially if you speak #Flemish, #Dutch or #German (in increasing order of difficulty) and can figure out Afrikaans lyrics - then you have got to listen to #fokofpolisiekar . And if you need me to translate anything with maximum retention or deeper poetic meaning, I'll gladly oblige.
