I sit in your tiny appartment It carries your soft scent The flowers on your skin And rising from the depths Of your multicolored curly hair I can hear the call for prayer in the distance The noise on the street swelles up I hear pans and pots hitting the pavement The people chant "şerefine Tayyip", cheers Tayyip Defying Ergodan with all their might The teargass stings my eyes and nose As I toss down a lightbulb And as it hits the ground the riotcops hesiate Then walk on Scanning the windows for the guilty one Briefly my eyes fall upon one of them Who smiles at me with joy in his eyes.

On The Job
I sit in your tiny appartment It carries your soft scent The flowers on your skin And rising from the depths Of your multicolored curly hair I can hear the call for prayer in the distance The noise on the street swelles up I hear pans and pots hitting the pavement The people chant "şerefine Tayyip", cheers Tayyip Defying Ergodan with all their might The teargass stings my eyes and nose As I toss down a lightbulb And as it hits the ground the riotcops hesiate Then walk on Scanning the windows for the guilty one Briefly my eyes fall upon one of them Who smiles at me with joy in his eyes.
