Kankerzooi

Kankerzooi

De kanker was voorbij
Extra jaren: tien
Schoon is betrekkeljk
Denk, dat ik maar grien

Het is de tweede keer
Ik weet niet, wat te doen
Zie de bui al hangen
De moed zakt in mijn schoen


Opnieuw door de bestraling
En, hé hallo chemo
Ik ben zo vreselijk boos
Het leven is een kankerzooi

Ik moet er doorheen
Of ik wil of niet
Ik ga er tegen aan
Want ik heb het leven lief

A Phase

A Phase


Life is a phase

We have to go through
How it should

I haven't a clue

Life is a journey
A puzzle incomplete

Discipline and integrity

Is what you need


The right combination of
Time and place

Opportunities and abilities

Defiant, be brave


All missing pieces
Will fall into place
Employ the proper skills
Picked up on the wa

Visserslatijn

Er zaten eens drie kikkertjes
Al aan de waterkant
Zei de één tegende ander
Weet je 't al van m'n bijna-vangst

Zat hier laatst te vissen
Lekker in de zon
Toen trok in één keer
Mijn hengel helemaal krom

Ik begon met halen en met vieren
Zag een kanjer van een vis
Ik wilde hem graag vangen
Om te gebruiken als mijn dis

Het lukte me bijna
Toen brak die stomme lijn
Die joekel zwom er snel vandoor
En dit is echt geen visserslatijn

Live The Dream

Live The Dream

We love our soapies
We follow their lives
Full of intriges
As if it were real life

We dont miss an episode
And watch it each day
It is like an addiction
As though we're chained

The ups and downs
In a world not real
We wait impatiently
For what will be revealed

There is a probable need
To be part of the scene
To escape real life
And live the dream

TheThings I Love

TheThings I love

I like the early mornings
When the sun begins to rise
The scent of moist soil
While the birds sing their line

I love the wide seavieuw
Watch the waves rolling in
Where noisy seagulls fly
On the smell of saltish wind

I adore my summergarden
When the roses start to bloom
The sweet odour is overwhelming
Like a sensual perfume

I cherish my beloved ones
It is good to have them around
It is a feeling of comfort
For that's, what life is all about

A Good Tool

A Good Tool

Mothers and daugthers
Fathers and sons
Were you close
When you were young

Did they offer you guidance
Did they offer you love
Did they teach you confident
Or did it all get lost


Parents have to teach
Their children virtues
These moral principles
Are of great value

For a child needs a basis
Of measures and rules
Apply it in life
As a good tool

A Powerful Star

A Powerful Star

Way up in the sky

There is that powerful star
That strong heavenly light

Close but yet far

A sphere of pure energy

Unthinkable hot

Impossible to get close

Without be burned on the spot


At a considerable distance

It cannot do us any harm

Therefore we can benefit

Its light and warmth


I sincerely hope
It will stay for quite some time

For without its existence

It will be difficult to survive
