Paragraph 117 [English translation]

(Intro 2x)

These are the voices from the ghetto, but you don’t want to hear them

These sunglasses protect me from the lights on your squad cars, yeah

I’m antisocial and proud of it

King Bushido

Boy, Germany needs me

(Part 01)

I’m so ghetto, so ghetto,

I’m coming

Come bring the thousand bucks here,

Now I’ll stay the man in charge in the ghetto

See the Mercedes star on the hood of my car

The most criminal-rapper headlines nationwide

Public Enemy Number One, brutal at the dog fight

When the moon crashes into your ghetto, stay cool

In the end I do what a shark does –

Attack in order to survive

What are you for hard gangsta rappers?

I like to do it and not just talk about it

I stay ghetto ‘cause I rap hard and hit hard, hit hard

I hope Mark Medlock moves abroad

I have the street rap for the cell block

You can rip anyone off, but not a criminal mind

It’s like a slap in the face, I burn like kerosene

Hear the street melody

(Dam dam dam dam)

I don’t think you hear us; no one wants to listen to us

They all just want to listen to our rage

Yeah

(Chorus x 2)

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto, so ghetto

Can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

Why don’t you want to hear?

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto, so ghetto

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto

(Part 02)

I’m so ghetto, so ghetto

You won’t get out without your passport

This will never be your world

Now they say, “shut up, retard!”

You they tastes are different

But since Augenblick ¹

I’m just a rapper to fall in love with

K-K-K-King Bushido

The gangsta movement and my gangsta clips

See – times are changin’

I’m driving the Mercedes Benz

I attract the masses

Sido – there’s only one king

You’re the wrong one with the iron mask

Ghetto – I’ll stay the rep here ²

I’m not resentful Dad, I’ll extend my hand to you

This is heavy on the metal

Big time payback, you imbecile

We’re gangstas, smash the window with a baseball bat

All the ghetto kids are trippin’ on Teledin ³

Hear the street melody

(Dam dam dam dam)

You’re so blinded by hate, no one want to listen to us

Our dogs are barking, can’t you hear the rage?

(Chorus x 2)

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto, so ghetto

Can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

Why don’t you want to hear?

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto, so ghetto

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto

(Part 03)

I’m so ghetto, so ghetto

You’ll go, go to jail overnight

And in German that means: you’ll spend the night in jail

No information, they’ll want your name and DOB ⁴

I’ve set the style here, Cordon, Picaldi, and Alpha ⁵

Let them talk and talk

It means give and take

You’ll see me

Then you just need to enter my paradise

I know you believe in justice

And you believe in law

Why hasn’t your law put me in jail yet?

I do the German rap scene, it’s clear who rules now

I’ll now fuck everyone in German rap who still exists

Get out your cards and cash

Your house of cards is falling down

I felt like erecting the statute of Bushido in my backyard

Your coffin’s already ordered

Don’t fuck with this G ⁶

Hear the ghetto melody

(Dam dam dam dam)

The ghetto speaks - you should listen

And one last time, you can hear the rage now

Yeah!

(Chorus x 2)

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto, so ghetto

Can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

Why don’t you want to hear?

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto, so ghetto

Tell me, can you hear …(sirens)

Can you hear …(dogs barking)

Can you hear …(click click)

So ghetto, so ghetto
