Max: At the end of the day,
I'm on my way
home on the highway,
thank god it's Friday,
Max Normal in 9 to 5,
you know the vibe,
push some overtime, clock out,
then home to wife.
Then I noticed that I don't know where the hell I am,
Must've taken a wrong turn,
sh**, let me phone home,
(Phone Ringing)
"Hey Honey,
Listen don't get cross,
I'm gonna be a little late, I'm just a bit lost."
(Wife: "You promised you'd be home Max... I can't believe this... Don't do this to me... don't do this to me.")
What? you're breaking up,
I've got bad reception,
I've got a crap connection,
I'm just gonna get directions,
Go back to the intersection,
wind down my window,
to speak to some kids,
but before I speak the kids go:
(HOOK)
Tik, Tik Lollypop,
Neus vol gom
Allie vinger bang bang, rou soos die Son
Brand jou uit die prentjie volkom
Papa papa pas op vir die Neon Don
Max: Ok, not sure what the hell that was all about
let me speak to these two guys coming round the corner now
Knoffel Bruin: Djy! 'Tsek julle! Gaan speel 'n ander plek! Gaan maak vir jou ma 'n koppie tee!
Neon Don: Can I help you?
Max: Hi guys, I made a bum steer,
Do you know how I get to the highway from here?
Don: Check the plains it's kinda hard to explain,
I still don't want to put a klomp strain on your brain.
Max: Uh, what are you doing?
[they get in the car]
KB: It's ok, we can show you the way.
Don: If you want to get to the highway drive straight.
Max: Hi, I'm Max Normal
Don: Dress code strictly formal? Nah kwaai.
KB: Ek sê ons rob die fokken naai
Don: Hou jou bek, voetsek
KB: Ek sal doen wat ek wil
Don: Hier's 'n pil
KB: Siesa!
Don: Trek 'n diep skyf in en chill.
Neon Don: turn left here Maxi, right-o you got it?
Awê my cuzzi, a genuine leather wallet?
Don: Awwww, wie's die duidelike meisie?
KB: Wys my?
Don: Kyk hie
KB: (smooch) Hello baby
Max: Hey that's my wife
Don: Je' Max, you got a nice suit
But wys me now, kykie, why you wearing my shoes?
Max: Uh, these are my shoes
Don: Come now don't be insecure
I'm a size nine let my try them on to be sure
(Knoffel Bruin in the background: How's a four there?)
Daar's it nou, lekker snug like a glove
Take a puff mah bru
Max: Uhhh no thank you
[Don co*ks a gun]
Don: Smoke this or I smoke you
[Max takes a tiny puff]
Uh uh uh Max, that won't do
KB: Don't take a moffie skyf Max, you better klap it
Don: Puff it! Do it quick or kick the bucket
[Max Takes a bunch of big hits!]
[Laughter]
(Hook)
Max: Whoo Jesus H. Christ
We going home? I don't know I'm slo-mo in deeper space now
Getting insecure, very bad feeling
creeping slowly
Need to go sleep or go pee, a homie
Laughing at me with no teeth oh jeez
This sh** is so deep
My brain's custard
What's happening
I don't understand, Max in Wonderland
Wearing nothing but his flipping underpants
Neon Don's in my socks and my shoes
Plus he's rocking my suit
f** it I'm too
High to open up the door let me climb through
The window
Huh where are we?
Half inside half outside my body
What's that noise? Sounds like a party
Down a little pa**age and go open a black gate
Old woman: Just go to the back 'ey!
Huh? Could it be?
An old lady reading a bible in bed watching TV
Out the back door
Into the back yard
Come on please stand guard
What the? A big black dog!
Voetsek!
[Hey!]
The lights get dim
Everybody says Hi to Don
I'm with him!
A lot of b**b tube tops, a lot of low ride jeans
Hi everybody don't mind me
Cold beer's pumping out the freezer in the garage
Don getting jiggy with some chicky with a fat arse
Some guys by the braai playing dominoes go
[Go Donny Don go Donny Don go]
God my head's fried
I got the red eyes
Little kids running around way after bedtime
Looking funky in my undies
Still need to wee
Don grabs the mic on the karaoke machine
Don: Wie maak die jol vol?
Crowd: Donnie maak die jol vol!
Don: Wie maak die jol vol?
Crowd: Donnie maak die jol vol!
Go Donnie! Go go! Go Donnie! Go go! Go Donnie! Go go! Go Donnie! Go go!
KB: Maxi innie ghetto!
Crowd: A nutty ghetto!
KB: Maxi innie ghetto!
Crowd: A nutty ghetto!
Go Maxi! Say say! Go Maxi! Say say! Go Maxi! Say say!
Yepa!
Max: My mind's open third eye strobing
When Neon Don's brand new cellphone rings
Don: Hello
(wife: "Is Max there?")
Don: "Just hang on, it's your wife Maxi"
Hi honey
(wife: "I thought you were dead!")
Eh don't say that, I'm just hanging with some new friends in the Cape Flats
(wife: "Are you frikkin mad Max!")
Eh don't say that! Listen I got another call on hold, I'll call straight back
(Hook)
Max: It's the start of a new day
I'm on my way
home on the highway
in my underpants
hitch-hiking,
will all sliding
I was so frightened,
woo, what a night man!
ooh, there's a white van, cool!
I'm so glad you guys stopped
out the white van jumped two white cops
Cops: Is everything all right with you?
Max: Nee, alles is kwaai my bru!
