Zaterdag [English translation]

The most beautiful corner of the street

Smells like coffee and beer

I smoke a cigarette

And then another four or so

Her window is always open

She can just see me standing here

She shouts: wait for me tonight

It's time to leave

I never had anything better

Then such pretty patience

Until I watched the sun go down

What doesn't fill me with regret

And when I then pick her up

She sits next to me and is silent

I drive away faster than usually

Push the tarmac out in front of us

Saturday

I didn't do anything that could've been done later

Saturday

I saw the week that had failed

But Saturday

Saturday

I am freer than the others

The city is behind us

We look at each other

It's never going to be the same

Us here, the world over there

And I know what she's thinking now:

We can't go back anymore

Please keep driving forever

Because everything, everything is going too fast

I lived slowly

In the margin of one of those days

So that everything is still possible, but not mandatory

I was wasting my time

But I am ready for Saturday

Saturday

I didn't do anything that could've been done later

Saturday

I saw the week that had failed

But Saturday

Saturday

I am freer than the others
