Clem Snide - The Sound Of German Hip Hop lyrics

I woke up to the sound of German hip hop in my head A great unholy clatter quickly filling me with dread I wondered then if silence had forever disappeared What, with everybody yelling the end was finally here I scrambled for the television, desperate for its light Hoping that my favorite stars could stop this endless night I waited for instructions, I waited for a sign I listened very carefully when told just what to buy Lovers became bitter, mathematicians counting crumbs Some were filled with angry lust, the rest felt mostly numb The sun became the enemy, they'd hunger after dark And k** time swapping partners at a club called Noah's Arc Those who spoke of doom impending, suffering and such Had found the place in people's heart that beauty had once touched They filled the auditorium, the tickets far from cheap Those that couldn't get in started fighting in the street The day came so we gathered in a field behind the mall A noted scientist predicted there we'd see it all The city council members came, they told us not to fear The king and queen of homecoming both shed a poignant tear Just like that it happened, the starling blinked its eye The molecules collided and became part of the sky All my life I've never known a moment quite so still Like space that's being emptied at the same time that it's filled I woke up to the sound of German hip hop in the air It sounded like a hum of insects nesting in my hair I wasn't so much tired but I felt that I should sleep So I closed my eyed and mumbled something about a soul to keep
