Hipsters & Whores
There's a guy lost in this town
That recently I've seen
His story is like those of many
That without home have been
He spits out his Weltschmerz
As he walks along the rails
In Kreuzberg past midnight
Tangled are his trails
Waiting for the subway
In a palace under ground
It comes to bring the lost ones home
A deep and roaring sound
Waiting for salvation
In the abyss of the town
The travellers of the night
Big city kings without a crown
Hipsters and whores
Whom the young ones adore
A town from within
A heaven of sins
Beggars and thieves
Forgotten believes
Junkies and priests
Some angels at least
He takes the train U8
The line from South to North
Mitten durch die Nacht
Into the morning sun henceforth
Steps out at Kottbusser Tor
To buy some cheap drugs
Takes a walk through Görlitzer Park
And creeps back like a slug
He's sleeping in a backyard
Had an overdose this night
The skies they were ashen
The rats, they sleep beside
That recently I've seen
His story is like those of many
That without home have been
He spits out his Weltschmerz
As he walks along the rails
In Kreuzberg past midnight
Tangled are his trails
Waiting for the subway
In a palace under ground
It comes to bring the lost ones home
A deep and roaring sound
Waiting for salvation
In the abyss of the town
The travellers of the night
Big city kings without a crown
Hipsters and whores
Whom the young ones adore
A town from within
A heaven of sins
Beggars and thieves
Forgotten believes
Junkies and priests
Some angels at least
He takes the train U8
The line from South to North
Mitten durch die Nacht
Into the morning sun henceforth
Steps out at Kottbusser Tor
To buy some cheap drugs
Takes a walk through Görlitzer Park
And creeps back like a slug
He's sleeping in a backyard
Had an overdose this night
The skies they were ashen
The rats, they sleep beside
