Coup
I saw Evren*
It was a serious incident
as thousands of people
died, as always he
did nothing
he just looked
this much chaos
was too much for us then
a coup
stroke me at head
a coup
I saw Erdal**
on gallows
sixteen years old
as he was dying
likewise did nothing
he just looked
after that free
after that fair
a coup
stroke me at head
a coup
before I went to
court-martial
before I went
a coup
prepare yourself
for a healthy revenge
You expect us to feed instead of hanging?***
