[Intro] [Shout: "Woo!"] [Shout: "Yeah!"] [Fast breakbeat starts, heavy dub bass kicks in] [Muffled radio chatter from Leipzig cellars] [Heavy driving kick starts, syncopated bass follows] [Echoing claps, resonant filter sweeps] [Verse 1] Concrete cold, but the bass is hot Concrete frozen, the city is grey Leipzig cellar, the secret spot Soviet blocks in the winter's decay Down in the cellar, we find our way Trading the peace for the price we pay Machine voices, loud and clear Trading peace for the atmosphere! (Shout: "Yeah!") [Chorus] Ecstasy! (Woo!) – in the dark we trust We traded our peace for ecstasy Ecstasy! (Yeah!) – turn the peace to dust Machine voices, the only key Without guilt, without atonement Concrete rhythm, this is our moment Without guilt, without atonement In this cold concrete, this is our moment [Bridge: The Funky Steppers Break] [Drum break with "Woo! Yeah!" samples on every 4th beat] [Dub sirens and echoing piano stabs / heavy bass modulation] (Echoing: "Ecstasy... Ecstasy... White Gold...") The jaws are grinding, the wings unfold Chemical dreams and the stories told The jaws are grinding, the story is told [Verse 2] Young and deaf, we don't need to hear Young and deaf in a hollow space The pulse of the city is all that's near Chemical wings in the velvet place One-forty beats, a guarantee One-forty beats, a steady guarantee Fast Eddie vibe, Dub energy! Lost in the rhythm, finally free [Chorus – High Energy] Ecstasy! (Woo!) – in the dark we trust We traded our peace for ecstasy Ecstasy! (Yeah!) – turn the peace to dust Machine voices, the only key Without guilt, without atonement Concrete rhythm, this is our moment Without guilt, without atonement In this cold concrete, this is our moment [Final Drop / Outro] Ecstasy... (Woo!) Ecstasy... (Yeah!) We traded our peace for ecstasy Concrete cold, but the bass is hot Down in the cellar, we find our spot The base still resonates today... [Fading out with heavy spring reverb] [Outro: breathy male voice, whispered: "this is a mister sirup production!"]
