Down in Kenya where the Masai roam 
And the grass grows tall on the veldt 
In our old colonial home

away, love's light wings will carry me 
Across the veldts of space and time 

And in my heart the dim partition vanishes away 
Between this world

Doorbyten met geweldt
Dan comt hy in het veldt
Daer hy van als met spoedt
Ghenieten sal in overvloedt

Gebraeden Kapuynen
Sitten daer op tuynen

Elephants strayed far from their herds
Leathery skinned
Leathery skinned
Leathery skinned

Their swinging trunks
And ears of felt
Down on the veldt

to the veldt-plains,

Dorn Ridge melts in snow-gold.
As the Moorhen
Pipes the pinkery moon.
Birdsong, so sweetly, hear them calling you

Birdsong, so sweetly,

And so to Esma I am come
To forge a passageway through time
And all, too soon, you'd come to take me with you.
And I strike north to the veldt

Buckling your Bible belt, vaccing value via Southern Veldt 
Set up the dominoes, when they fall, no-one knows 
Leave it in pieces when you go, like N.G.O.’s

And I don't wanna hear about you countin' I don't wanna hear you singin' like you wouldn't sound
And I don't wanna guess your faces,

haunting the darkness
Stalking the veldt
Where many kings were felled
A savage growling rakes this grassy vastness
Halting you in the tracks you've laid

crying
And honestly I should've went home
Flying home was the worst thing I've felt
Imaginary world trapped in the Veldt
What happened?

Wee mij ick heb een vrouw, het wordt u geclaegt
De broeck sy draagt en met geweldt, houd sy het veldt
Sy clapt sy snapt myn hersenen stelt se in pyn

Where we have been
What we have seen
Heart shorn
Velveteen
Spartan veldt
Solar svelte
Deviled dust
Lifted up
Autumn's whirlwind becomes adorned with

The Veldt
I play my cards with the hand I was dealt
Lucy in the sky feel our bodies start to melt
Come lay on the roof with me
Feel the farthest
Darkness

Leathery skinned

Their swinging trunks
And ears of felt
Down on the veldt

listening to a song with children you can call it veldt

Man the mouse is not dead are you sure  it got revived
Wait Baptised in the water swam No scuba dived

veldt
Didn't know what to do when you left me
All these voices in my head won't go away
Only getting louder when they shouldn't be
Why you left, girl, you

left like dead alumni
Enrolled in the top college of lost souls
Read novels ‘bout diablos who dropped hot flows 
Thought about it for a second
My veldt

The limb that trailed, the hand that failed, the bloody finger tips
Oh, the dreary rhythm of their song

They left us on the veldt

Only thing on the mind
No one like me around
Cause bitch I'm a beast
I been born in the veldt & South African streets
I been barefoot boulin' on the Cape

All this time that I've been given
That I don't need to live in the veldt
It's real life and I'm
Tired of fighting myself

I can't move slow

Or Life Alert?
I don't support a media that fetishize
The wealthy 'cause it's weird
I'm here to help contextualize the
Veldt to a room
