- 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

What is the meaning behind Hour I lyrics?


When we focus on what the lyrics are trying to say, Scorpions' 'Hour I' offers a dismal view of human nature's very self-destructive ways, commanding the audience to look for refuge and be quiet during the ruckus and fights. The image of 'staying down' reflects the necessity of being safe and meditative in a world that is totally wrong. The Hour i lyrics convey mainly the feelings of angst, despair, social commentary, reflection and anger. At the same time, the piece underscores fall of mankind, inequity of the cosmos, survival and caution as well as conflict and hypocrisy. The lyrics present the themes of survival, human nature, and conflict that can be very powerful for younger viewers. The persistent call for kids to 'stay down' and 'shut your mouth' implies a kind of hazard and urgency corresponding to the PG-13 rating.
