Scorpions - Hour I Lyrics






So here we are
It's hour one
And it's a nightmare
There's nothing left
And yet it's good to be alive
There's no use crying
Cause the universe is not fair
The wicked and the innocent
Are fighting to survive

Child stay down, stay down
You better run for cover underground
Child stay down, stay down
You better shut your mouth
Don't make a sound

Human nature is the reason
For our downfall
And we deserve it playing God
With our machines
Our religions are a prison
That's our fatal flaw
Bombs are flying
While we're sleeping with the enemy

Child stay down, stay down
You better run for cover underground
Child stay down, stay down
You better shut your mouth
Don't make a sound

Look at me, right at me
When I'm telling you to stay down
Come to me, run to me
I am begging you to stay down
Cling to me desperately
All you gotta do is stay down
Pay attention my child down

Look at me, right at me
When I'm telling you to stay down
Come to me, run to me
I am begging you to stay down
Cling to me desperately
All you gotta do is stay down
Pay attention my child

Child, stay down, stay down
You better run for cover underground
Child stay down, stay down
You better shut your mouth
Don't make a sound

Child, stay down, stay down
You better run for cover underground
Child stay down, stay down
Stay down

  14. M.... ....

    same thing that Metallica tried to follow a trend of music but I think it worked good for scorpions. mainly because they had better production.

  15. I.... G....

    this song has really Heavy Metal sounds but it sound soo great! love it <3 <3 <3

    I.... G....

    Heavy Metal it is!

  16. Y.... ....

    I'll say the same thing I said when I bought this when it came out: they've still got it!

  17. J.... H....

    John 5 wrote this song for the Scorpions. Would probably explain the heavier/choppy guitar sound. I like the different sound it has in comparison to earlier Scorpions music.

    J.... H....

    is he playing too?

    J.... H....

    Wrong john only did the siren sound for the song
    I mean I have only respect for jonh 5 but his song contribution was minimal as we can hear on one of jonhs interview
    But was nice to hear him

  18. C.... R....

    a really Heavy Metal sound

    C.... R....

    yeah! but it sounds really good on this song!

    C.... R....

    heard this song in my colleagues car, had to check it out

  19. T.... ....

    What a song!

  20. s.... ....

    Looks like 4 grannies tried to find hour 1 ministries and got their ears blown off instead....

    s.... ....

    sturmbringer01 harlious

  21. a.... s....

    rock n roll

  22. a.... s....

    muito show

  23. I.... ....

    I don't like the Scorpions but this song... FUCKING ROCKS!

  24. V.... E....

    One of the best

  25. E.... B....

    Agreed, I always consider their 70's and 00's material as heavy metal.

    E.... B....

    Correct! Scorpions is Heavy Metal, not only hard rock

  26. J.... B....

    Heavy as it is, I just don't feel like this song fits Scorpions. Sure, they've always been a tad heavier than the rest, but this crunch, the dissonance and especially the D-tuning alienated me from the album for a long while, which is a shame. The Game of Life a better IMHO.

  27. s.... ....

    This song is badass as a whole, even with the fact in mind that John 5 wrote this

  28. C.... M....

    great comebackto their roots by scorpions on this song.

  29. A.... T....

    this is not hard rock, its heavy metal.....plus no hard rock song is played in drop C tuning.. d'oh

    A.... T....

    100 % correct it's heavy metal from mighty Scorps.

  30. s.... ....

    few persons: average of about 56 in age.....
    knew how to make hard rock songs!!
    and that song is soooo great!!
    its not too hard but not soft eithter!!
    i heard about that band only a day ago!!(if not consider to listen to one song by them that i didnt knew its theres..)

  31. D.... D....

    This song is harder than shitting and getting your anus split

  32. F.... ....

    @ScorpionsRock99 where did you hear solo there :?

  33. m.... y....

    1 [erson needs to feel special!! My favorite part is the solo at 0:26 to 0:34

  34. W.... ....

    Love this song! Jesus saves!

  35. J.... F....

    This song is the coolest one. From the whole world.
