Translation of the song lyrics Broke - King's X

Broke (original)

So you say you can’t afford to live
Because you’re broke, is this a joke?
With a credit card you pay your bills
Because you’re broke, is this a joke?
Hey baby, stop acting so crazy
Living way beyond your needs
This affliction and addiction
Isn’t free
(Na na na na)
Na na na na
(Na na na na)
No, yeah
(Na na na na)
Na na na na
(Na na na na)
No, yeah
(Na na na na)
Life is a ghetto when you’re going down
Because you’re broke, is this a joke?
The pressure’s rising, heading for a stroke
Because you’re broke, is this a joke?
Hey baby, stop acting so crazy
Living way beyond your needs
This affliction and addiction
Isn’t free, yeah
(Na na na na)
Na na na na
(Na na na na)
No, yeah
(Na na na na)
Na na na na
(Na na na na)
No, yeah
(Na na na na)
Na na na na
(Na na na na)
Oh yeah
(Na na na na)
Na na na na
(Na na na na)
No, yeah
(Na na na na)
The debt is rising, and you overload
Because you’re broke, is this a joke?
So go buy something that you can’t afford
Because you’re broke, is this a joke?
Hey baby, stop acting so crazy
Living way beyond your needs
This affliction and addiction
Isn’t free
Hey, hey baby, stop acting, stop acting so crazy
Living way beyond your needs
'Cause this affliction and addiction, oh
Lord, isn’t free
(Na na na na)
Ain’t free
(Na na na na, yeah)
Can’t you see
(Na na na na)
What it’s doing to me
(Na na na na, yeah)
Oh lord
(Na na na na)
Can’t you see
(Na na na na, yeah)
What it’s doing
What it’s doing
(Na na na na)
Oh lord
(Na na na na yeah)
You’re not the only one
(Na na na na)
With this affliction
(Na na na na yeah)
So put your hand on the record player
(Na na na na)
Put your hand on the record player and say
(Na na na na yeah)
I’m going to get my freedom
(Na na na na)
I’m going to get my freedom
(Na na na na, yeah)
I’m gonna do it
(Na na na na)
I got to do it
(Na na na na, yeah)
I got to do, oh lord yeah
(Na na na na)
