about

Schizophrenic City seeks to recount the stories of Noor’s recent trips to Amsterdam. It is a city that by day, proudly displays its architectural and cultured heritage, yet by night turns hedonistic, a peep-show world of casual drug use and legalised prostitution. All cities have a dark side, but few feel as polarised as Amsterdam.

lyrics

Schizophrenic City

Daytime has gone its own way
Night time is here to stay
Daytime is Museum Square
Night time is for De Wallen fare

As I gaze upon your gabled facades
The Oude Kerk, a myriad of bars
A dark side, the night arena
I feel your schizophrenia

Daytime I ride the grachtengordels
Night time I watch sordid whore deals
Daytime has culture and history
Night time drunk/pissed Brits touristy

The Huis Marseille by day is an art delight
I hit the coffee bars for the shame of night
Neither sterile nor homogenised
Girl I miss your schizophrenic eyes

Daytime has gone its own way
Night time is here to stay
Daytime is Museum Square
Night time is for De Wallen fare.
